Don't attack Iran - Bath action report

(A) Sab | 06.05.2006 17:12

Today marked the start of Bath's resistance to the looming Iran war with a successful demo and actions

around 25-30 people took to the streets of Bath to protest the imminent Iran war. Dressed as victims of war, the protestors staged die-ins at HSBC, E$$O and BMT, all war profiteers. We then made our way back to town centre where we 'died' and leafleted. The day was a great success (especially as the demo had only been advertised two days previously!), exept for inept policing which saw two bumbling, uptight coppers who tried to arrest a protestor first for sitting on a wall, then for chalking (apparentley criminal damage!) and then for refusing to give personal details in relation to an offence they couldn't confirm was committed! Despite this, a good day was had by all, and the start of Bath's opposittion to the next round of the war on terror has begun.
