[Campaignforrealdemocracy] Update from Assembly Re: Fwd: [politicsandspiritnetwork] occupylsx: Saturday 22nd October: One-Week Birthday Celeberation

Fri Oct 21 14:29:44 UTC 2011

Hi all,

I hate to say I told you so but:
http://www.stpauls.co.uk/News-Press/Latest-News/Statement-from-the-Dean-of-St-Pauls-21-October

We need to get as many people down tonight as possible as the Police will be
ready to "clean" the streets.

In solidarity

Justin
