I took part in a St George’s Day march in Brighton in 2007 for the centenary of the Scout movement where we marched from The Level to the Dome to renew our promise.
This year the gathering at The Level was cancelled at short notice, as the presence of March For England so alarmed our leadership it was felt the Scouts would be put at risk if the event went ahead.
This led to the disappointment of about 1,000 Scouts, their leaders and parents. Thanks a bunch, March For England.
