Salonika Prisoners solidarity action in Norwich

,, | 03.11.2003 09:39 | Thessaloniki EU | Globalisation | Indymedia | London | World

Action starting today

As from 11 o'clock today we begin a week of action perhaps longer depending on resources. The plan is to hold a 24 hour picket outside City Hall in solidarity with the prisoners/hunger strikers. All our attention will be devoted to this. We will collect money for the campaign, leaflet everybody who passes and contact media, unions, religious institutions, etc, etc, whatever we can come up with. Much of this action has not been planned. It is very much a case of we turn up and take it from there. In terms of banner making etc that too will be done on the steps of city hall.
We ask anybody who can get involved to please do so, even if it is only to bring a flask of coffee to the activists who are out in the pouring rain. Every little bit helps here.

We feel the urgency of building up the prisoners public profile to a greater level is now crucial because of the seriousness of the situation they are in. Any ideas, comments etc, are welcomed.

Activists held a meeting today and decided we didn't have enough people to keep a 24hr protest going. We decided that we would be at city hall everyday this week talking to the public. On Saturday we will hold a 24hr hungerstrike at city hall in solidarity with the prisoners. This will commence at 10am.

Activists gave out leaflets today for 6 hrs and had a good response from the public.
