Watching the Election from London
Election Day Champagne Brunch, London
Saturday 8th November, 10am - 2pm
The Southerner, Essex Street, London WC2R 1AP, map to pub
If you’re in London and looking for a place to watch the New Zealand election, there’s an Election Day Champagne Brunch being held downstairs at The Southerner pub, near Temple tube, on Saturday from 10am.
A plasma screen has been specially wired up to watch coverage via the Internet. The event has been organised by the Kiwi Greens in London.
It’s open to all. Supporters of all parties have been welcomed.
I’ll be tweeting from there, and may even get time to write some code to predict outcomes as the results come in.
Afterwards there’s the opportunity to watch the end of the Lord Mayor’s procession which passes by outside The Southerner; the Lord Mayor’s show finishes with a firework display at 5pm from a barge moored in the Thames.
