G8 Network Meeting 14th June

T | 30.05.2005 15:38 | G8 2005 | Oxford

G8 Network Meeting, Tuesday 14th June at 7.30pm at The Friends Meeting House, 43 St Giles Street. Come and share what you are planning to do around the G8 Summit happening 6-8th July in Perthshire Scotland.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Whether you are travelling to Scotland or staying in Oxford, this meeting is for the diverse groups of Oxford to share information on how they are campaigning around the G8 Summit. In a similar vein to the anti-war network meetings of previous years this space is to discuss a number of issues including raising the profile of issues around the Summit in Oxford, supporting each others campaigns, sharing practical information on Scotland and for those not able to go, discussing what we can do in Oxford. This is an opportunity to meet each other, build networks and create a space for people in Oxford to get more involved.

There will be a summary of events planned in Scotland and groups will have the opportunity to talk about their activites in Oxford before the meeting is opened for wider discussion. Please foward any agenda items to

US Marines in kilts?

"Security will be further tightened by up to 2,000 US Marines who will be flown in from and aircraft carrier to secure a 30-mile zone around Prestwick airport." [Indy 1st June] Also, apparently, and this is unconfirmed, residents of the area around Gleneagles will be kept either in or out of the secure zones but not allowed to travel during the conference. Anyway, will the Marines be disguised in kilts?

Marines in kilts?! Wow - what an idea for incognito surveillance. If that's the case, I either hope they get mobbed by tourists or that it gets very, VERY windy in Perthshire :)
