Thank god sanity prevails.

Tomorrow there will be a UK-adjunct to Jon Stewart’s Rally to Restore Sanity at the Old Palace Yard SW1. Writer Tim Ireland fears that some attendees may actually start straying over towards the Houses of Commons and Lords, in contravention of the ban against spontaneous protests against Parliament.

To prevent this, he has received permission from the police to to stage an urgent demonstration to protest outside Parliament against any violation of this law preventing protests outside of Parliament.

Says Ireland: I call on you to join me this Saturday to take stand against such people:

The law is the only thing that stands between us and absolute chaos. We can’t have people marching on Parliament at a moment’s notice. We need the threat of arrest to keep them at bay. Perhaps a little kettling if they try to stare us down. Something that’ll make them think twice, at any rate.
