Trooper74 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) Rotherham ... it's grim up north ...Not a bad crowd including our local Labour MP Dennis Healy and a number of Councillors ... and 2 very heavily armed Police officers and 4 unarmed Police officers ... who remained disengaged from the parade ... as they should.British Legion had a chap blow the whistle at the appointed time and when it finished ...Sorry about the photo edit all ... seems the chap that was videoing was a member of the EDL, part of a group of EDL supporters at the Cenotaph that we have to put up with in Rotherham .... which is why we had the heavy Police presence. They behaved well and respectfully. Edited November 9, 2020 by Trooper74 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mississippi Bullfrog Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 We had two Acts of Remembrance in both villages. Limited by the current regulations of course but done very well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
