Frankie 8,182 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Can I ask who the bear is... I assume it's Andy Smillie - he certainly seemed to enjoy the protests. I think there was one or two other Members Lounge patrons alongside him as well... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy and his wife were outside the main doors when we arrived, Andy stayed to the end with others who came and went from inside the entrance ,but not sure who the others where? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 3,050 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 I attended the protest/march and was pleased to see good numbers involved. The march had around 50-100 with more joining in as we walked round to the front door. There was certainly around 200-300 as we protested there, including some polite applause from those awaiting the organisers. The crowd did disperse quickly as people left to get to their seats early ahead of the minutes' silence but, all in all, I'm sure SoS will be quite happy with the numbers. From where I was (along from the street vendors across from the John Greig statue) those numbers of yours look very conservative indeed. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Cooper 0 Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 It was interesting to see a well kent and very well connected bear standing at the main door on the other side of the fence from the protestors clapping along. I wonder if anyone would have a go at trying to slaughter him? Noticed that too, was very proud of big Andy! He is afterall paying for it all right enough! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,182 Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 From where I was (along from the street vendors across from the John Greig statue) those numbers of yours look very conservative indeed. I didn't have the best view admittedly but it was difficult to tell who was there for the protest and who was there to rubber neck. I think 300 actual protesters seems accurate enough given the number of people singing (not that many really) and how quickly the bulk of the crowd dispersed. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Son of Struth Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Thank you to all who supported the protest I had a conservative estimate also until i viewed the video Craig http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dQxtqM83i0 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
