Over 400 anti-fur campaigners took to the streets of Knightsbridge in London on Saturday 27th September, taking a loud and firm anti-fur message right to the heart of the capital's fashion district. As the activists began to gather in Belgrave Square, it was clear this march was going to be even bigger and better that last year's march as the crowd began spilling out into the square. There were speeches from CAFT supporters, as well a guest speech from Adrian Ramsay, deputy leader of the Green Party.

2000 days of occupation and the oil lobby and neo-conservative right still haven't got what they came for. Iraq's oil is still unprivatised but for how long? With just over 100 days to go until the end of Bush and Cheney's term in office, the crude pair are redoubling their efforts to secure the black stuff for US oil majors. Monday October 13th sees 41 international oil companies meet the Iraqi oil minister in London, to discuss the oil carve up they have waited so long for and which has been such a key factor in the deaths of over a million Iraqis. Lets get out on the streets on Saturday October 11th and remind them an Iraqi and a global movement demands the end to the occupation and their oil grab plans. End the occupation Now, Hands Off Iraqi Oil...

Here’s something nice from a group that brainstormed an idea at the 2008 Climate Camp; EV-EON [

Ken Livingstone tried to do over water usage in London, he blamed ordinary people and lectured them that they should stop leaving the tap on while brushing or having a long shower meanwhile Thames was losing 915 million litres a day, the regulator, the idiots paid to tell us what they are doing and then do nothing said - enough to fill 366 Olympic-sized swimming pools. He did not do anything about Thames Water and what he did do is a scandal, in London, most of the Victorian pipes in central and East London were bone dry and the problems were with North London, which cannot be fixed with plastic pipes. Thames Water replaced perfectly good cast iron pipes with plastic pipes and they do not even know their shelf life, some people predict 30 years. So you take out something that is perfectly OK, why? apparently

Meeting report from tuesdays opening meeting for
LONDON , SATURDAY 6 DECEMBER MARCH, "VERY CRITICAL MASS" CYCLIST ACTIONS ETC
to coincide with the preparatory UN meeting for the Copenhagen "WHAT NEXT AFTER "KYOTO" RUNS OUT" big, globally crucial "once-in-ten-years" ( but-we-mightnt-get-a-next-ten-years ) time when the worlds signatories to Kyoto prepare the documents etc for Copenhagen itself.
( after the USAs election, post-campaign but prior to the actual inauguration, is also when diplomats etc "reset their clocks/ mental images of the world " . . . when a heck of a lot of people, imagination, etc on the streets could have a seriously useful effect . . . hence worth thinking about doing a little bit at the moment to put a mention of it into that mailout, onto the website calendar, putting it onto the Womens Institute meetings agenda - or yours !

Discussions about the kids' march on Saturday were held by about a dozen young children who occupied the top of a World War Two bunker in a small woodland at the Camp for Climate Action on Sunday afternoon.
The Children of the Eco warriors questioned the way that the climate camp meetings had completely ignored them and had not give them the opportunity to make their own decisions for themselves.
