# Tessa Jowell (culture secretary)
The official line is that the turf in Hyde Park can't take the expected 500,000 people, so it's on health and safety grounds. It all looks fucking dodgy though..

# unlike the party in the park
as music events won't effect the turf at all.

# Actually...
...('cause I like to start a message with "Actually") it's Mr Parkie the Hyde Park Park-Keeper who says no to 1/2 Million people, on the grounds that, they never allow Rallys at this time for year (Mud, slipping, aggh, broken leg, etc.), never have for anyone, never will.

If it happened to be spring or summer they'd have no problem with it at all.

Tessa Jowell just went with "Humm yes, what he said"

# Probably true,

# Apparently yes...
...it needs to happen now, just not on wet slippy grass near water.

Can't everyone just mill around outside the gates?
