Posted: Wed Apr 02, 2008 11:29 am
I've been helping with the promotion for the Oxford LMHR fundraisers and thought i'd let you guys know about the big London carnival in April. The carnival is free but donations are always welcome.
Its basicallly the big anti-BNP rally and its the 30th anniversary carnival after they started the anti-fascist rock music movement back in '78.
