What Chris Martin said
He said on stage,“Let’s raise our hands like this and send love anywhere you wanna send it in the world, and there are so many places that might need it today. So, here it comes from London. You can send this to your brother or sister, you can send it to the families of people who have been going through terrible stuff.”
He continued, “You can send it to Charlie Kirk’s family, you can send it to anybody’s family. You can send it to people you disagree with, but you send them love anyway. You can send it to peaceful people in the Middle East and Ukraine and Russia and Azerbaijan and Sudan and London, anywhere you think might need love from London. Here it comes.”
