What a beautiful picture of working class solidarity
Beautiful I may have been at the time but the event was inspirational, I would have said.
This was our 'Cable Street Moment'.
I used to go to Childeric road school, and Romberg trudging us Clifton Rise to the main road, lived in Woodpecker road in New cross until 1968. It seems a shame that the church I was married in St Michaels was demolished some years ago and now Woodpecker road has gone too.
