Anyone here from Scotland? I see a lot of online posting etc., but I think actually meeting up and planning practical things may be most beneficial. Hoping to meet up with like minded people.
Hi Sheena. I'm near Edinburgh. I just found the post about 'Protests in Scotland" (I searched on 'Edinburgh') and found that there are some protests in Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverness etc. so I'll go along and see what is going on. But I do think that probably the key thing is for every person on here, each day, to speak to two or three other people - hand out flyers, engage, talk. Make people more alert, and that there potentially other aspects to this they should be aware of.
Are you close enough to any of those to go along (or maybe going along already)?
Hello John, I‘m just a few miles north of Inverness. I had no idea that there were protests planned here. In the days just before the wearing of masks in shops became mandatory in Scotland I tried to encourage people that I met in the street or in shops to rebel against this. Having flyers to hand out might help and maybe more people will start to realise just how oppressive this is when they are forced to live with it on a daily basis. Do you know when the Inverness protest is due to take place?
Hi Sheena, I must be close to you - I am near Dornoch. Would be good to collaborate a bit. Keen to join protest too. Will look out for next Inverness protest date. Hannah
Thanks for your message. I agree that it would be good to collaborate. I think that living in this area, we can sometimes feel a bit isolated. I would be happy to share email and telephone details, if you would like to send a personal member chat message.
I went to the Inverness Gathering at Bught Park on Saturday and there was quite a good turn out. Another one has been planned, which I think is to be on Sunday 16th August, but I don’t have all the details yet.
Thanks for sending me the link. I probably won‘t be able to go this Saturday, as I’m going to the west coast for a few days and I don’t expect to be back in time. But, I imagine there may well be other protests and it would certainly be good to connect with others in the area.
I can’t find anything in the link re a protest this Sunday in Edinburgh. Does anybody know time and place?
You do not stand alone. The number of people questioning things is growing every day. The oficial narrative simply does not stand, even my 8-year old can see that! But there is a lot of fear around, that is certain.
>> Edinburgh, The Meadows, Saturday 25th July 2020, 12pm - 3pm (Every week!)
Hope to see people there. I thnk what Simon is doing is incredible, but it will have to be backed up by word of mouth - people talking to friends, colleagues, neighbiours, building up momentum and awareness
Hia, we will def. be in the Meadows again this coming Sat from 12 onwards! The following Sat we will change our location to bring more awareness as we have been in the Meadows for a few Saturday's now. We have a gazebo, you can't miss us.
Was brilliant to attend the London one last weekend, and will for sure be at Holyrood on Saturday.
Spiritual wishes to everyone in Australia too, especially Melbourne. They'll be protesting this weekend, but in what amounts to a damn police state. It only shows how important to take a strong position here NOW, and make clear this has already gone way too far.
I have found a hairdresser in Edinburgh that cuts hair without wearing a face mask and she doesn't expect her customers to wear face masks either!!! Get in touch if you would like to know more :)
Hello John, I would certainly be interested in organising things at a local level. Where are you based.? I am in the Highlands.

Hi Lindsay - the meetup in the Meadows is very good. Link is below?

Good to get along, either take along as many as possible, and/or meet like minds and see what needs done. :-)

Not sure if you've met yet...some notes from our experience in the Activism section (currently top of page 2)...well worth setting a date even if some can't make it. https://www.keepbritainfree.com/forum/activism/starting-your-own-local-group
Do people know that there is a big Protest coming up in Edinburgh this Saturday? Please all come if you can.
Was brilliant to attend the London one last weekend, and will for sure be at Holyrood on Saturday.
Spiritual wishes to everyone in Australia too, especially Melbourne. They'll be protesting this weekend, but in what amounts to a damn police state. It only shows how important to take a strong position here NOW, and make clear this has already gone way too far.
I post more info if people are interested

Hi Jacky, would love to know the name of this hairdresser in Edinburgh please. Thanks!
John am in Aberdeen.
