sorry it's taken so long! but it's a proper little film that hopefully captures the afternoon. it's nearly fifteen minutes long, but this compression makes it only 10.8 Mb, so it's just about do-able even on dial-up if you're patient.

Report on Rossport Solidarity Camp speaking tour of Scotland and England

15-02-2006 17:26

After a very productive publicity tour of England back in November we decided it was time to do some more outreach, this time to Scotland. This has been an important part of our work over the winter months. Its important that we make as many links as possible so we can show that this campaign is not isolated that its part of a worldwide struggle against capitalism, a struggle against the profits of big business always being put before the needs of communities. Also this report will feature my trip to the World Social Forum in Venezuela where I got to give a presentation on the Shell to Sea campaign. Apologies for not reporting on this sooner but things are very busy here. During the g8 we had made some good connections in Scotland especially with other protest camps. So on the 3rd of February 4 of us from the Rossport Solidarity Camp headed off to Scotland in our trusty transit van.
