Flash Mob Against #DEBill This Afternoon
http://debflashmobmanchester.eventbrite.com/
The Open Rights Group and Pirate Party are organising a Flash Mob against the Digital Economy Bill today, at 5PM in Manchester city centre. I won’t be able to go because I’m working til 7:30ish, but if as many Lib Dem types as possible could get there, it would help counteract the recent image problems the party had over the bill (it’s now, thanks to the membership, against party policy and we’re opposing it in the Commons, but it took some doing) – quite a few people left the party for the Pirate Party over this issue, and I’d rather we not let a single-issue party like that be making all the running on this.
I should be there with a Lib Dem badge, maybe even a correx board.
