Burford Levellers, Saturday 18 May 2013
Levellers Day 2013
For years West London branch used to have (pay for) a stall every year at this event sometimes with members from the Midlands. Then a few years ago we were told there was no place for us as "there were too many stalls". We are still not quite sure what happened but it seems that control of the event passed to sympathisers of the Green Party. The last time we were there (which must have been in 2009) we were introduced to Peter Tatchell as the prospective Green Party candidate for Oxford. The next year we went without having a stall and noticed that they no longer sang the Internationale (Billy Bragg version) as on all the other occasions we'd been. The programme this year suggests that a return to its original roots may have happened. It's too late to organise anything this year but maybe we'll try for a stall again next year.
