Hi
Did people see this?
Details of protests for the G8 environment ministers
March 17th-18th March Derby M17.
This July, the G8 - the heads of state of the world's
most powerful countries - will be meeting in Gleneagles,
Scotland. Whilst they talk of tackling climate change,
our government is imposing a huge new roads building
program, and almost comprehensive airport expansions.
Whilst they talk of relieving poverty in the global
south, they uphold a financial system that creates
global famine, military repression and social and
environmental breakdown.
In preparation G8 Environment and Development ministers
will meet at the Breadsall Priory Hotel, near Derby,
hosted by Margaret Beckett, UK Secretary of State for
Environment, Food and Rural Affairs. Why should these
people be allowed to meet without opposition? We intend
to be there. Bring costumes, music, whistles etc and
join us!
