Levellers Day is Saturday 9th May, and is being marked with the annual event in Burford, Oxfordshire. This runs from 10.30 until 4.30 and includes talks and workshops, music, and the procession through the village. There’ll be a party literature stall there too! The event is always an enjoyable day, and more details can be found here: https://levellersday.wordpress.com/whats-happening-2026/
Levellers Day in Burford was enjoyable again. Three of us ran the party’s stall, which attracted a steady flow of browsers and some interesting conversations. The t-shirts and William Morris pamphlets were popular, and having the banner (and a box of second-hand books) helped draw some interest. There were seven or eight stalls there, including for CND, the Communist Party, save the NHS, a pro-Palestinian organisation and Make Votes Matter. There were fewer people there overall than in previous years, unfortunately, but there was still a varied programme of sessions: talks (with John McDonnell as star guest), a history walking tour, workshops and music.
