Everyone welcome! Bring drums etc if you can.
Voices (campaigning in solidarity with the people of Iraq) are organising a second action to STOP THE CORPORATE INVASION OF IRAQ on Monday morning, 27 October, outside the corporate conference,'Reconstructing Iraq'.
The last action a couple of weeks ago (at Olympia) got lots of coverage (see pictures on www.voicesuk.org)
On Monday we will have a giant cake in the shape of Iraq so that we can offer the attendees a slice of the country they are seeking to privatise, as well as street actions and music, to highlight the profiteering behind the reconstruction contracts and the illegitimacy of the privatisation of Iraq's economy.
PLEASE JOIN US TO DEMAND THAT IRAQ'S PEOPLE ARE ALLOWED TO
DETERMINE THEIR OWN ECONOMIC FUTURE
** 27 October. STOP THE CORPORATE INVASION OF IRAQ.**
1 Whitehall Place (nearest tube Embankment) from 8.30am to around 1pm.
Protest and street actions outside the Reconstructing Iraq conference (admission £1099...). This is a conference on ‘how to win contracts in Iraq’. Focusing
particularly on ‘energy, infrastructure, transport and telecoms’, it features
representatives from the US Department of Commerce, the Foreign Office and talks on 'UK industry/Army link', 'the potential legal obstacles to trade', 'removing currency from the county', and 'claiming ownership of Iraqi oil'.
Also contact Voices UK for a copy of the Voices briefing 'Iraq for Sale' and copies of the free campaign postcard 'Stop the Corporate Invasion of Iraq'.
