       #Norwich on a summer Saturday always has a feel of festivity, indie crafts, protest and naked capitalism.I usually love the way it’s everything to all people, all at once. And most of the time everyone gets along. But today I felt sad. I witnessed intolerance.A band was playing the Cranberries’ Zombie while a woman with Downs Syndrome happily danced in front of an appreciative crowd. Less than 20 metres away police were arresting a young women for holding a handwritten sign. #Gaza

       The intense ‘everything all at once’ sensation continued as I walked 100 metres further to a #Banksy and #Bitcoin exhibition.I had come for the Ralph Steadman desk used to create the imagery for Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas…but found myself drawn into a strange conversation about the morality of Bitcoin with a tipsy late middle aged man holding a lager bottle. I said I was opposed to the huge amount of energy it consumed. Not the answer he wanted to hear. Escaped 15 mins later.

       @JugglingWithEggs > Norwich on a summer Saturday always has a feel of festivity, indie crafts, protest and naked capitalism ... Less than 20 metres away police were arresting a young women for holding a handwritten signThis isn't "communist" China folks, this is the UK. Which likes to present itself as a liberal democracy, but is demonstrably neither.At least not if we define "liberal" as 'tolerant of difference and dissent', and "democracy" as 'communities making decisions together'.
