[Ssf] On the Victory Parade...

[spodulike at freeuk.com]

On non-firework related topics, the Palestinian Solidarity Campaign are 
having a big demo against the Wall on that Saturday (6th Nov), it's a 
bring your own cardboard box affair at 12pm to 2pm outside the Town 
Hall.

Also Stop the War will be there cos there's a lot of people worried 
about fallujah, the rumour mill is the attack will be after Ramadan (
ends Nov17th). So write to MP's, councellors etc. I'm going to try 
using mind control on Tony Blair, can't do it with Bush cos he hasn't 
got one arf arf etc.
