Route

This is what the route looks like on Google Maps:

The total walking distance is about 2.2 miles, on mostly flat ground. Having discussed the route and the Rally with the police, we will be walking on pavements, not on the road and we will be making an effort to not cause any nuisance to the public.

Note that whilst the route map above suggests it will take 45 minutes, the rally will take longer than that because of the stops and speeches along the way:

  • At The Royal Courts of Justice there will be a short speech about the rally and also to cover off a range of ‘housekeeping’ matters i.e. logistics, health and safety, a reminder about the protocols for inclusion and so on. There will also be a short speech about the important role the justice system needs to play in helping to achieve better financial regulation
  • At Downing Street there will be a short speech about the important role the Prime Minister and the Chancellor of the Exchequer needs to play in helping to achieve better financial regulation
  • At Parliament (Cromwell Green) there will be a final short speech about the important role that Parliament needs to play in helping to achieve better financial regulation

Also, please note that at The Royal Courts of Justice, HM Treasury, at 1 Horse Guards Parade, Downing Street and Parliament (Cromwell Green) a petition calling for better financial regulation will be handed in; each petition nuanced according to the location, for example the list of reforms mentioned in the speech and in the petition at The Royal Courts of Justice will be about issues to do with the legal system; whereas the list of reforms mentioned at HM Treasury will be about the relationship between HM Treasury and the Financial Conduct Authority. 

The rally’s Organising Committee will be deciding what is in each of the petitions and in each of the speeches. A small amplifier will be used to help ensure the speeches can be heard. 

We expect the rally to end at roughly 4:30pm; after which we may go onto socialise and relax somewhere nearby, but of course that is optional.
