That shift became undeniable when the public petition Withdraw the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill passed 166,000 signatures. The total easily cleared the threshold for parliamentary consideration. MPs debated the petition on 1 December.

The demonstration will begin with a march from Russell Square to Whitehall. Speakers will then address a rally near the heart of government. Organisers chose the route deliberately.
