Have You Been To Speakers Corner?

[-Talbot-]

A very interesting cam.

[Tilly2]

I have, but not recently.

[Jahulaye]

I love speakers/Hyde park corner. My dad used to take me every Sunday and I used to watch him debate and talk about a wide range of subjects, some topical some just off the top of his head.
I think that’s where I picked up my love for speaking and debating.

[Jahulaye]

Have you got a brief synopsis of what is going on in your link op as 27 mins is a bit of an eye waterer.

[Mamyalynne]

No I haven't.

[-Talbot-]

You need less than a minute to know what is going on.

[Jahulaye]

I only watch long links when given the promise of mass hysteria, knee jerk reactions, offended and enraged comments usually with subjects of racism, religion phobias and other cheery topical items.

[-Talbot-]

I haven't been but the next time I am in London I will be making the effort.

Could get exciting @ 3 0'clock.

[maggiebee]

Yes, but a few years ago.

[Jahulaye]

“You need less than a minute to know what is going on.“

Well what is “going on” exactly?

Usually a link should be followed by a brief synopsis with a catchy excitement promise of what’s inside to lure the reader into your link unless it’s your YouTube channel and you’re just hawking for hits?

[jackthehat]

I can't hear the video and would also be grateful for a synopsis of the content.

[-Talbot-]

actual live vid (I think)

[Jahulaye]

“Could get exciting @ 3 0'clock.”

What’s going to happen at 15:00? Are you going to make an appearance? Lol

[Jahulaye]

It’s 15:00 and the live stream’s offline.

What’s happening there, I’m intrigued at what’s “going down”

[-Talbot-]

Found it.

[Mamyalynne]

Not very orderly are they.

[jackthehat]

Excellent.
Footage of the top of other folks' heads, the sky, police officers and myriad smartphones.....

How things have changed since the days of 'Soapy-Soper'....

[Jahulaye]

BREAKING NEWS- Tommy Robinson brings SAS Bodyguards and half Luton towns MIG’s hooligan squad to start a riot after fears for his safety after being slapped to the ground by a group of pansies in north London a few weeks back

“Run Tommy, RUN!”

PMSL.

[-Talbot-]

Apparently, he is 3/4's way through the speech ... I haven't heard a thing. Damp squib.

[Jahulaye]

Op, can you not get further into the crowd and maybe use an extended selfie stick with a fish eye lense for more drama?

[Mamyalynne]

Yes, rather a let down - hope everyone disperses safely though.
