Transcript from ‘Right Said Fred’ podcast

Richard – I think one of the big problems is that this is an attack that you can’t really see. It’s in the air, it’s a kind of feeling and to get people to understand that it’s just as real as bullets flying through the air, it’s very difficult. People who don’t understand the demo thing thought that it was about changing official policy. It was never really about that for me, it was showing solidarity with people who felt the same. I remember talking to one elderly lady who was from Southampton and she found going to the demos incredibly invigorating. She suddenly realized that she wasn’t the only one who thought like she thought.
