If you DO protest - remember that you'll be making history and SCARING the powers that be.
It's important that you don't lose your nerve and stand strong. I really do hope this happens.

Don't you guys see it? They want the UN troops to be the global army. So they're staging down military and are prepared to ask for UN assistance at the drop of a dime
Don't be daft..
There is no such thing as "UN troops".. You clearly haven't the foggiest how the UN works and are merely an Alex Jones tool.

The CO would likely lose his commission should he or she authorise what you are asking. This cannot and will not happen, the military have never been allowed to do things like this and for good reason too. The only way you are allowed to protest is in the form of handing in your PVR.

If you soldiers are wholly willing to risk your jobs, ranks etc - then I hope you stand by every single student, pensioner, working person and unemployed person who have been utterly crapped on by the last few governments.
Nothing will create more of a spark than our very own military marching proudly amongst the people.
Remember the Queen supposedly represents the people (many will argue otherwise), but in essence she represents the country, the land and the people. Especially the people.
Be Brave, do NOT let the Government thugs and black uniforms stamp on you.
You have the right to march, do not let anyone tell you otherwise.

Any news on the march and how well this went ?
it would be good to hear some news from the march organisers
A Devon council has been accused of using Big Brother-style monitoring after police and security staff were used to marshal a public meeting.
Attendee Penny Mills said: "We were greeted at the door by police and security guards.
"People had their bags searched. I've never had a bag searched going to the local council."
"All the police and security were in the meeting. It was like Big Brother was watching you, and it was very uncomfortable."

So what they've made British troops redundant and plan on hiring mercenaries? Surely that wont save any money, on the contrary. So what is their ulterior motive?
What does the Government gain from this, obviously trained soldiers who are not loyal to the country only loyal to their pay-packet. Tis scary times indeed.
The UK's armed forces are on standby to provide an additional 3,500 troops to help with security at the 2012 London Olympics, the BBC has learned.
It comes amid fears that private contractor G4S would not be able to provide enough trained staff in time.
The Ministry of Defence has confirmed that soldiers serving with the British Army in Germany have had their notice to move shortened.
This means they could be transferred to London within a matter of days.
G4S is being paid £300m to guard the Games, but the BBC understands it has not been able to guarantee it can supply the 10,000 guards it has been contracted to deliver.
BBC defence correspondent Caroline Wyatt said the move would come as an embarrassment to G4S.
She said there was anger within the military that they were being asked to step in, not least at a time that the armed forces were being downsized.
