Really great to see such large crowds out on the streets of Glasgow and Edinburgh on Friday and Saturday, making it absolutely clear that Trump and his racist, sexist policies are not welcome here. Some wonderfully inventive placards (a fair proportion of which contained words which are not repeatable here…) and one extremely scary baby blimp!
The Trump-monster himself is unlikely to be listening, because he’s clearly deaf to any criticism, but it’s vitally important to make a clear public statement on issues of migration, climate change and inequality, particularly with the rise of populist, far-right parties across Europe. And we need to stand in solidarity with activists in the US and around the world to support the principles of equality and justice.
