I’m quite behind all the cool kids with this one but it’s worth linking to anyway.
If you’ve got a few minutes go and read The Conservative Challenge by Sean Gabb. There’s a lot in it to think about, and articulates many of the reasons why I’m joining Old Holborn for his little walk, yes it’s only symbolic, yes it won’t achieve much – but symbols are important and exercising our legal rights to look silly in a quiet and peaceful fashion is important. It may make people think, or at least wonder what we’re up to, it may give us a chance to explain some of the stuff we’re worried about to other people, and it will give us the chance to remind a few PCSO’s and real police that people do have rights and that some of us will exercise them.
