dsei street party meeting

it cant happen if we dont make it happen - details of next open meeting below or mail
Subject: rts street party for DSEI - next open meeting
Date: Tue, 22 Jul 2003 17:10:41 +0100 (BST)
Hello everybody
For those new to this list, this is the list for the London Reclaim The Streets street party currently being planned for the afternoon of Wednesday 10th September on the occasion of DSEI – Europe’s biggest arms fair.
The street party is being planned as part of the direct action day against DSEI. The arms fair is at the ExCel Centre, London Docklands, 9th –12th September, and the protests are from 6th –12th September. Info on www.dsei.org
The next open meeting about the street party for DSEI is at 7pm next Tuesday, 29th July at LARC, (London Action Resource Centre), 62 Fieldgate Street, London E1 1ES, nearest tube Whitechapel. LARC’s phone is 020 7377 9088. We’re also looking for venues for subsequent meetings.
Lots of help and ideas are needed to get the street party together at short notice. Spread the word.
The Reclaim The Streets (RTS) concept is being revived for a one-off street party as part of the protests at the DSEI arms fair. In its present incarnation, the group includes some people from previous RTS actions and some people who are completely new to it.
(Some of you may have had your return address forwarded here as a result of an enquiry to RTS about upcoming actions.)
See you there.
Cheers
street party for DSEI people
