If so, see you there!

Do you think it'll be mobbed by TRAs as the venue's been announced in advance or not because of the security at the HOC?

Oh and there's was some tweet going around from TRAs giving contact details for people to call email and generally pester to get the meeting stopped.

Yes, I'm not sure they won't protest. I just don't think there will be actual trouble. Too many security staff around.

And cameras. The place must be absolutely crawling with CCTV.

They (transactivists) might be tempted by the thought that a protest at HOC would give them huge publicity. Wouldn't be too sure that'd end up working in their favour but in their echo chamber full of narcissists, they probably don't realise.

You mean they won’t stand outside shouting ‘burn it down’?

It’s almost like they know that’s not okay.

I'm going. And I don't think there will be any trouble. The security is watertight.

There is stringent security, long corridors, loads of meetings and meeting rooms and loads of people wandering about at any one time so people going to the meeting will be hard to identify, locate or target.

If protesters do turn up, they'll be moved out of the way for security reasons to a safer area - maybe on the green in the middle of the square I imagine. So I don't think there is any cause to worry.
