Thom Yorke joins 25,000 at trade justice rally

Radiohead's Thom Yorke took part in a trade justice rally outside parliament with 25,000 others, including vigils, a painting performance and an acoustic show.

Talking of which, Radiohead star Thom Yorke was at a rally with 25,000 other people outside parliament on Friday. The event, organised by War On Want and the Trade Justice Movement, saw the singer take part in two vigils, a five hour painting performance (with the help of friend Stanley Donwood) and a one-off acoustic show.

Yorke told NME: "It is important to remind (Tony) Blair and Gordon (Brown) of their promises really. They are talking the whole thing up and they are on the campaign trail and it (trade justice) is one of the many things we are hassling them about.”
