Critical Mass
Posted: Tue 27 June, 2006 Filed under: Green, News 1 Comment »Nice to see that Critical Mass , a monthly event in London, has been judged to be lawful by the High Court, finding against the Metroplitan Police’s claim that it was an unlawful event.
The London ride is part of a worldwide phenomenon and has taken place on the last Friday of the month, every month, for the past 12 years, with riders gathering on the South Bank from 6pm.
But last September, before the start of that month’s ride, cycle police, who always accompany the cyclists, distributed a letter to participants stating the Critical Mass demonstrations were not lawful.
Hoorah for that. The Manchester Critical Mass site seems to be down, though; I’d quite like to join in the next one which I assume is this friday…
