First protest - 9th Feb
The first protest went better than I had expected. First we protested on behalf of a man selling the Big Issue magazines, where we chanted 'Down with Man U Mark' up to the Cross near St.Peter's church. It was quite nerve racking at first, especially being at the front and having lots of (confused) eyes glaring at you, but once I got into it, it was quite liberating and fun, which I hadn't anticipated.
Next, a lady (see above) gave us 'Down with steps, up with ramps', as she was a wheelchair user and struggled getting about. The reaction of the public was very positive with this one, with a lot of people cheering us on and agreeing with the protest. Another woman came up to us with a pram and was rallying to our cause.
