G8 protestors hold five-day event in Lanarkshire 06 April 2005 17:58 A five day event for protestors planning to disrupt the G8 summit at Gleneagles began today in the Lanarkshire countryside. People attending the Festival of Dissent will attend workshops on civil disobedience and receive advice on what to do if they are arrested. The festival is taking place just 13 miles from a disused hospital, where Scottish police are receiving training on how to deal with riots at the summit. Training for a riot at the G8 - Scottish police officers have been practicing what they call public order techniques in advance of the summit this July. They would not let Scotland Today in to the old Law Hospital near Carluke but pictures were filmed from an overlooking hill. Thirteen miles away in a windswept field the Festival of Dissent was getting underway. Several hundred people from a loose network of anti-capitalist protestors, environmental and peace campaigners will gather there to plan protests against the G8. They believe that civil disobedience is the only way to challenge the might of the eight world leaders - and they say have no plans to use violence. The organisers would not let Scotland Todays on to the site to film, but two agreed to talk to us nearby. Community activist Alice said: "There's often references to violent protestors although it's not something we're expecting and I've not heard anyone planning anything violent in any of the Dissent network." Street medic Lesley said: "It seems like there's some sort of hysteria being whipped up in the media, saying we're going to be violent. There's no-one on site at the moment planning anything like that. It may well happen, we can only speak as individuals, but we're not planning to." They are planning what they call non-violent direct action. The police say they have no firm intelligence of widespread disorder. The training at Law Hospital is a precaution. But the officer in charge warns that anyone breaking the law can expect to end up in court. Chief Constable John Vine from Tayside Police said: "Obviously if groups want to take part in any sort of protests they can talk to us about it. But I would emphasis that if any of the protestors break the law, as the police service we will be arresting them and putting them before the courts." In Derby a recent anti-G8 demo attracted just 150 people - making the presence of 1000 police officers look a little heavy handed. With exactly three months to go the protestors and the police are finalising their tactics for the G8. The plans for non-violent direct action means some kind of confrontation is inevitable. But no-one yet knows how serious it will be.

In just two hours I received 2 replies from people wanting to come 2-4 weeks early to help out. I told them that people would need help prepping camp/convergence space, or that they could contact working groups, or maybe to write to Reshape folx to find out what needs to be done. I highly recommend putting something on the dissent homepage if you need people to come help.

Message-ID: <20050421133815.8250.qmail@web25305.mail.ukl.yahoo.com> UK G8 Presidency Justice and Home Affairs Ministerial Meeting, Sheffield 15th ? 17th June 2005 The UK Presidency of the G8 - Justice and Home Affairs Background The G8 (or "Group of Eight") is a multilateral group consisting of the world's major industrial democracies: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The European Commission attends G8 meetings as an observer. The G8 address a wide range of international economic, political, and security issues. The G8 has its origin at an economic summit in 1975 convened by President Valery Giscard d'Estaing of France and attended by leaders from Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Italy and Canada joined this original "Group of Five" in 1976-7. Whilst Russia started to be involved in G7 meetings in 1992, it was only in 1998 that the name was formally changed to "G8". Work on Transnational Organised Crime After the 1995 Summit in Halifax, Nova Scotia, a group of experts was brought together to look for better ways to fight international crime. In 1996, this group (later known as the "Lyon Group") produced Forty Recommendations to combat international crime that were endorsed by the G8 Heads of State at their Summit Meeting in Lyon in June 1996. "Subgroups" of the Lyon Group thereafter were formed to address specific crime-related issues (e.g., legal processes for evidence-sharing, high-tech crime, and immigrations fraud and human trafficking). In December 1997, U.S. Attorney General Janet Reno hosted the first-ever meeting of her counterparts from the G8 countries and the Ministers issued their first joint Communiqu? which endorsed the work of the Lyon group. The last three Presidencies of the G8 have hosted meetings of Justice and Home Affairs ministers. The Home Secretary will host a Justice and Home Affairs Ministerial meeting in Sheffield 15-17 June. Changes following September 11, 2001 In October 2001, senior representative of G8 Justice and Home Affairs Ministries met in Rome to discuss steps for the G8 to take to combat international terrorism and decided to combine the G8's Lyon Group (fighting transnational organised crime) and the G8's Roma Group (fighting international terrorism). Since that time, the Lyon/Roma Group has met three times annually in joint session. While continuing important work to combat transnational organised crime, the group uses its resources to combat terrorism through such avenues as enhancements to legal systems, transport security, and tools for investigating terrorist uses of the Internet. Meetings under the UK Presidency of the G8, 2005 The UK will convene 3 meetings of the Lyon / Roma group. These will be in January, April and November. They will be chaired by senior officials from the Home Office and Foreign and Commonwealth Office. The Home Secretary will host a ministerial meeting on 15-17 June 2005 in Sheffield. G8 Transnational crime and Counter-terror objectives in 2005 The 2005 objectives combine work on the inherited agenda and a number of new initiatives. There are nearly 100 separate projects. The key areas of work are: As lead country for counter-narcotics work in Afghanistan, the UK will continue to seek co-ordination of the G8 support for this work The completion of several initiatives to enhance international travel security International co-operation in combating immigration crime, with an emphasis on document fraud International law enforcement co-operation, focussing on child protection, the expanded use of DNA and the international illegal trade in firearms International co-operation in combating high-tech crime Shared assessment of the threat from international terrorism and co-operation to counter the treat The reinforcement of the principles of judicial co-operation and mutual legal assistance in the investigation and prosecution of transnational organised crime and terrorism Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Thanks x --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 'Days of Dissent: Reflections on Summit Mobilisations' Now Online www.daysofdissent.org.uk London?s financial centre is transformed by carnival as the G8 attempt to meet in Cologne, Germany. Six months down the line, the now infamous mobilisation against the Third Ministerial of the World Trade Organisation in Seattle succeeds in shutting down the Conference and inspires millions around the world. From West Berlin, London and Seattle to Prague, Gothenburg, Evian, Cancun and beyond, mobilisations against international summits have succeeded in putting anti-capitalism back on the agenda. Days of Dissent is a collection of voices from within these mobilisations. Each article is written by people who were directly involved. They attempt to explain why movements decided to mobilise, how they went about doing so, how the events unfolded and ? most importantly of all ? they attempt to assess what lessons can be learned. With the 2005 G8 Summit to be held in Scotland (July 6-8), and with preparations for resistance well under way, it is important that we attempt to learn from our collective history, from our mistakes as well as our successes. 'Days of Dissent' is one contribution towards this process of reflection. Its aim is to provide inspiration for action. The magazine is available online (www.daysofdissent.org.uk), to download as a pdf document, and a number of hard copies of the magazine are still available. Send blank cheques, postal orders or well hidden cash to: 'Days of Dissent' Magazine, Box 8, The Summac Centre, 245 Gladstone Street, NG7 6HX, England. For each copy send ?1.50 plus 50p for postage and packaging. For orders outside of the UK add a further 50p for postage. Equivalent amounts in other currencies also accepted.
