As previously detailed here, the Government has moved to ban the planned protest against the continued war in Iraq by placing a one-mile exclusion zone around the Houses of Parliament when Prime Minister Gordon Brown makes his speech on Iraq. Having signed the petition against this apparently cynical attempt to obviate opposition, Brian Eno has pledged to march alongside Tony Benn, Mark Thomas and others within the one-mile zone and make their voice heard by politicians arriving for the session in Parliament. Tony Benn has delivered a letter to Jacqui Smith to explain why this breech of the ban will take place. As Tony Benn says, "The authority for this march derives from our ancient right to free speech and assembly enshrined in our history, of which we often boast." This is why Tony will be joined on the march by Labour Party NEC member Walter Wolfgang, musician Brian Eno and many more soon to be announced. Comedian and broadcaster Mark Thomas, announcing his participation, said, "This is a ham-fisted attempt to prevent us from demonstrating. We will ignore the ban. We have the moral and logical high-ground. I will be marching on Monday 8 October." And so will Brian Eno. Following the assembly in Trafalgar Square, the protest will march to the Houses of Parliament to make representations to MPs. Tony Benn, as President of the Stop The War Coalition, has advised the Home Secretary (copying the letter to PM Gordon Brown and Jack Straw, Commisioner for the Metropolis) that they will march, with or without the support of the police. But will you be there? Expect to see a police mugshot of Brian Eno very soon.
