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.

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.
