On last wednesday  , ( november 9 )there was a grasroot meeting in Reykjavik.
There people where talking about uniting all the small groups that have been protesting and criticising the the Banking crash and the goverment .
People held speaches,and discussed the situation .
More meetings will be held about this matter.

A member of the Occupy Reykjavik movement held a speach,and he is from the US ,so the speach is of course in english.
You can see and hear his speach on one of the videos.





But to everyones surprice , the President of Iceland and his Wife came and listened to the people and talked to them also .
They where at the meeting for about two hours.
