Plan so far for the demo on 26th March so far is for women to wear green

Please pass this to all your networks and watch the WAC web site and this

International Days of Action ? 19-20 March

DEFEND BRADLEY MANNING

DEMONSTRATION AT THE US EMBASSY,
Grosvenor Square, London W1
(Marble Arch or Bond Street Tube)
SUNDAY 20 MARCH, 2-6pm

organised by: UK Friends of Bradley Manning (
http://ukfriendsofbradleymanning.wordpress.com )

Payday men?s network and Lesbian, Bi, Trans, Queer Women in the
Global Women?s Strike will attend the demonstration ? hope you can
come.

?

Bradley Manning is a young, openly gay US Army intelligence analyst,
accused of leaking video and documents to WikiLeaks.? He has not yet
been put on trial and therefore must be presumed innocent, but since
May 2010 he has been jailed, put in solitary confinement and subjected
to terrible abuse (see the  Bradley Manning Support Network?s press
release below).?

?

Asked about Bradley Manning?s harsh treatment in US military
custody, US state department spokesman?P.J. Crowley commented that it
was "stupid" and"counterproductive" ? he was subsequently forced to
resign.?

?

The US government intends to make an example of Bradley Manning and is
trying to wipe out a long tradition of whistleblowers ? women and
men who have exposed the crimes and wrongdoings of governments or
those in authority. Bradley Manning?s courageous stand in releasing
this information encourages and strengthens our movements against war
and for justice.

?

We endorse the demonstration organized by  UK Friends of Bradley
Manning and we urge especially anti-war and lesbian & gay
organizations, and all who campaign for justice to recognize his
contribution and campaign internationally for an end to his
persecution.

Press release from the Bradley Manning Support Network:

MEDIA ADVISORY ? FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Media Contact: Jeff Paterson

press[at] bradleymanning [dot] org, ?+1-202-640-4388

Global Bradley Manning Action Days in Support of Accused WikiLeaks
Whistleblower

Individuals and activists plan events around the world to show
support for the accused WikiLeaks whistleblower on March 19-20.

Washington DC, March 14, 2011 ? On March 19-20, 2011, activist
organizations and individuals will take to the streets to protest the
U.S. government?s treatment of accused WikiLeaks whistleblower Army
Private First Class Bradley Manning. Manning, 23, has been held in
isolation for nearly 300 days, charged with releasing classified
documents, including a video that shows American troops shooting and
killing 11 people, including two Reuters employees, in 2007.

Organizers are calling on supporters around the world to take public
action to protest Manning?s? inhumane treatment at the Quantico
brig, which P.J. Crowley, Secretary of State Hilary Clinton?s former
assistant for public affairs, declaimed last week as "ridiculous and
counterproductive and stupid."

The primary rally will take place outside the brig in Quantico where
Manning is being held. In addition to the Quantico rally, the Bradley
Manning Support Network is pleased to announce events in cities around
the world, including Minneapolis, London, Montreal, The Hague,
Phoenix, San Diego, and Vienna

?On March 2nd, Manning was stripped of his clothing and forced to
spend the night naked, then stand for inspection the next morning
without his clothes. This happened again the following night, and we
don?t know how long this will keep going,? said Jeff Paterson,
steering committee member of the Bradley Manning Support Network and
project director of Courage to Resist. ?This pre-trial punishment is
inhumane.?

Despite the recommendations of three forensic military psychiatrists,
the MCB Quantico Commander refuses to lift PFC Manning's Prevention of
Injury (POI) status and change his confinement classification from MAX
to Medium Custody In (MDI).

Manning?s imprisonment has resulted in an international outcry, and
his conditions are the subject of an investigation by the UN special
rapporteur on torture and a recent campaign by Amnesty International.
Famed Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg, who will be
speaking at a rally in Quantico on the 20th, has called Mr. Manning
?a new hero of mine.?

Press Release
23.03.2011 20:27

ACTIVISTS BLOCKADE CHANCELLOR'S CAR IN ATTEMPT TO STOP BUDGET


In an audacious attempt to stop George Osborne delivering the budget this
afternoon, 20 women blocked the five main exits of Downing Street. They
blocked Osborne's car from leaving, but were dragged away from the car.
One member of the group was arrested, and later released without charge.


The group was trying to stop George Osborne from delivering the budget
because the government?s cuts agenda will decimate the Welfare State,
harming the poorest and most vulnerable people the most.


At 11.15am, a group of protesters arrived at Downing Street carrying
placards in the shape of red briefcases reading ?Block the bankers?
budget?. Minutes later groups of three women lay in front of each of the
four vehicle exits of Downing Street, and locked themselves together
inside arm tubes, which makes it difficult for the Police to remove them
quickly. The groups remained in position until 11.52, when the vehicle
carrying George Osborne broke through one blockade.


The group of women pointed out that the cuts will have a devastating
impact on the lives of women, citing examples such as the closure of
women?s refuges, cuts to child, disability, carers and housing benefits,
the roll back of maternity rights and that women are thought to make up 80
per cent of the expected job losses from the public sector.


Sara Ayech, one of the women lying outside the main gates of Downing
Street said:

?We are stopping George Osborne from delivering his bankers? budget
because this budget has been written for the benefit of big business and
the banking sector, not for ordinary people. The banks destroyed the
economy and in return received the bail out and bonuses. But the
government is choosing to make everyone else pay the price through
unemployment, the decimation of the Welfare State and the NHS.


?The Welfare State was fought for and won by ordinary people only 64 years
ago. It?s now under attack by the coalition government and we are here to
defend it and show that people will resist the injustice of these cuts.?


ENDS

Notes to editors

The women involved are friends from across the country. They came together
to show their anger against the cuts and to defend the Welfare State.
