Around 40 people showed up for a demo today in solidarity with protesters world-wide who are protesting against the G8, Climate Change and Capitalism. Photos will come soon i'm sure...
The protest started at Midland Park where a speech by a member of the Acheh Support Group was made about Exxon Mobil.
The demo then went down Lambton Quay, unfotunately on the footpath. But the cops (lots of them around) were quite bossy about the whole affair... Lots of anarchist flags were flying in the Wellington wind. Leaflets were handed out to people explaining what the whole thing was about.
Further down on Lambton Quay the proposed Free Trade Agreement with China was auctioned off. Bidders traded workers rights, Te Tiriti o Waitangi, Democracy, Biodiversity and FUN for the FTA in return.
The demo then went up to Marian Hobbes' office. Again lots of cops. Peole put up vampire teeth on her photo. Hobbes is the minister for the environment and also the local MP. But the Labour government is so commited to progress (progress of capitalism that is) that they completely forget about the environment... (Bypass, Happy Valley, Marsden B, GE...)
WE ARE EVERYWHERE!
