SPRINGTIME IN ROUNDHAY PARK

It was lovely in Roundhay Park in Leeds yesterday morning. Lots of spring sunshine, a bit chilly because of a raw wind, but there were kids flying kites, dogs chasing balls, men chasing a football around, couples pushing buggies carrying babies, kids on their scooters on the ramps, military fitness classes.

It was all going on at Roundhay Park.

All going on...except for protests against intrusive surveillance by the state, or warmongering against Syria and Russia.

I wonder how many there had bothered to even ask one simple question and sought an answer to why this world, despite the fantastic views and flowers in bloom at Roundhay Park, is actually a horrible, nasty, dangerous, loveless shit hole.
