How to make a protest sign... (Google Year in search 2017)

The 2017 retrospective films are coming. It must be Christmas.

They missed 'How to pay your taxes'.

Love is out there...

I'm a sucker for a year in review video. And the Google one is usually very good. This year it's brilliant. Have a watch.

2016 was a year filled with too much pain, hate and despair.

So we need a plan.

We all need to do more.

We need to work harder.

We need to motivate more people to take action.

We have to inspire more people to fight for what they believe to be right.

We need to amplify the voices that won't sit back and wait for others to take a lead.

We need to organise ourselves and others to create communities and movements that are impossible to be ignored.

It's down to us.

Enjoy your break.

Take a pause.

Collect your energy.

And come back in 2017 ready to kick ass.
