My name is Sophia. I am 40 years old. I run a science education project. I speak only for myself, I do not represent the camp.
I think education is so important. The most valuable thing human beings do is to look after the next generation and help them to grow up to realise their potential. Think what a world we could achieve if a full realisation of individual potential were the norm.
I am here because the 1% are just taking us for fools. The financial sector created this crisis and yet they are getting away scot free and still receiving huge bonuses for their failure. Meanwhile the rest of us are suffering and essential services like the NHS and Education are losing out.
I have been really inspired by ordinary people coming down here every day from different walks of life to express their support. They share stories of how the crisis and cuts have affected them. It can be heart breaking to hear them. But then they start talking about their hopes for the future and how things could be made better and that makes me really hopeful.
