Europe Day Picnic

The sun shone kindly down on the half-dozen members of EMMK who gathered in Cathedral Gardens, Rochester, on Sunday, 9 May 2021 to celebrate Europe Day with a Picnic.

The half-dozen included your Chair, Peter Daws, your Treasurer, Derrick Cripps, and your Chief Brexorcist, Peter Cook.

There was a little raffle for a foil-lined picnic rucksack generously donated by the London office of the European Parliament. It was won by Peter D. There was also a prize of a bottle of wine (does anyone know who won it?) and a copy of the CD “You write the Songs” from Sixteen Million Rising, which was won by Derrick. This album features Peter C. and Rage Against The Brexit Machine singing “ ’Allo Vera – Brexit’s Comin’ ’Ome”.

Mid Kent branch of the European Movement (EMMK) was born in the wake of the UK’s disastrous decision in 2016 to leave the European Union. It was formed initially as Medway4EU, but folk from beyond Medway attended the inaugural meeting, and so it was agreed that the new branch should be called Mid Kent. At current count there are over 1700 members in the seven Parliamentary constituencies which form the branch. View all posts by emmkuk
