Last Friday at ten in the morning the Swiss consulate was occupied to protest against the repression at the G8 and the cutting of the climbing rope of Martin Shaw by the police, resulting in a fall of 20 meters and grave injuries.

Today the climbers that hung themselves from the front of the building are still continuing after 80 hours, despite the oven-like temperatures (around 40 C)untill the Swiss government shows their willingness to discuss the opening of an independent investigation into the repression around the G8.

We are asking for solidarity from everybody, so please, occupy an embassy, write a mail or make a phone call. We are hoping that as much people will make calls as possible, making it absolutely impossible for them to continue with their work.
