Afternoon

Just a reminder that the protest against Hackney Council's motorcycle parking charges is this Saturday. It would be great to see you all there. It's starting at 12 midday from Downs Park Road E5 8JY.

Guest speakers include TV/radio presenter Matthew Wright, GMB regional organiser Steve Garelick, Karen Neill of Zenith motorcycles and Andrew Almond of Bolt motorcycles.

Here's the link to the FB event: https://facebook.com/events/s/protest-against-hackney-mc-par/624203142336307/

I would be grateful if you could spread the word to your contacts/social media as well.
