Today there were 650 police officers in Cambridge for an EDL march. I suspect there were less officers deployed for Lewisham People's Day today.

I would much rather the police are deployed to ensure a fun and safe day for 35,000 good people (who Brian will simply dismiss as chavs) celebrating, rather than 350 bigots to march through the streets of a city they don't live in.

People's Day was enjoyed by tens of thousands of people and is good publicity for Lewisham. The EDL are not enjoyed by the majority of the population and is not good publicity for any area they visit.

One year I hope to visit Lewisham People's Day. It would be good to hear what people who attended the event thought of it this year.
