MakePovertyHistory has been discovered to be a SWP front organisation. The campaign from the earliest outset has been funded by governments and by large campaigning groups, such as the SWP, which has members involved in consulting to the organisation on how to build a mass campaign and what the aims and objectives are.

Of course, many other groups are involved by can such an organisation be trusted, when the SWP and its "comrades" and others are involved in deciding the direction and aims, as well as controlling its campaigning methods?

Anyone serious about this should avoid this sham and avoid Edinburgh for the G8, as it is a diversion from the real problems. People would be better off not attending SWP hijacked events run by has beens like Geldof up in Scotland, they are wasting their time!
