In the week before Remembrance Day on 11 November, and the “celebration” of the 100th anniversary of the first world war, our vigil this week urged people to not only remember the dead…. but also to take action for peace. We wore white poppies, long used by the peace movement instead of the red poppies. We had a really good response from the public, and as you see in the pictures, we also had sparklers, as the 5 November is also a day for fireworks in the UK. Here’s our leaflet,
and a photo.
