Christine - updates

Hi everyone,

i've reigned myself in thanks to some feedback from people in the class, i lost my way a bit! I'm back to concentrating on my original project, and here are a couple of things i sorted today.

I handed in my notice to protest (against archaic foundation principles etc) at Charing cross police station today to a nice police officer who chuckled at the reason i gave on my official notice letter. I will be protesting in Parliment square on the 21st April along with Mark Thomas (comedian and activist) and other people. Mark Thomas regularly organises protests, and this one is for a mass lone protest for any cause, There are some interesting ones such as 'diet pills with every burger' and 'brides for trolls' So it should be fun. Taking part in a larger demo in May too.

I've also completed an online petition on the Downing street website, asking the prime minister for a ban on foundation tutors promoting these out of date ideas; i should be informed if it's been accepted soon. If it does, i want you all to sign! All a petition needs is 200 signatures for it to be passed on to the minister concerned. I'll let you know what happens. Working on some other stuff too but too early to give you any details.
