Mass demonstration in front of Parliament this Tuesday evening!

Bring the war home! | 27.10.2006 09:03

MPs will be voting on whether or not to pull all British troops out of Iraq this Tuesday we need a mass demonstration to persuade them to vote for complete withdrawel. Assemble in front of Parliament on Tuesday the 31st of Octoberfrom 5pm until 7pm. Bring banners. .

The Stop the War Coalition has called a lobby of parliament on Tuesday 31 October, when MPs debate "the conduct of the government in relation to the war in Iraq and its aftermath. MPs must end a war which has brought nothing but mass slaughter and devastation to the people of Iraq. There is no excuse. It's what the majority of British and Iraqi people want. It's what even the head and members of the armed forces want.

Rubbish this event is still on!

The above comment is rubbish it is still on! See the stop the war coalition website:
 http://www.stopwar.org.uk

Obviously the establishment and especially Neo Labour are very worried about the rising tide of anti-war sentiment in this country. The above post is obviously a state agent trying to put out false information to stop people attending this event!

Bring the war home!

Permission

27.10.2006 11:22

Have Stop the War applied for permission or is this an illegal demo?
Or have individuals applied for permission to demonstrate rather than as a group?
If you have asked permission are we allowed to join your demo if we don't have permission? If we don't have permission and get nicked will the Stop the War coalition support us in any legal action?

Permission?

27.10.2006 15:41

It would be intresting to hear other peoples opinions on this action?demo?
I`m intrested to find out more about this,as I `m cynicial about the stwc. However,this seems intriguing! It would be informative if a spokesperson could answer some of the questions and queries that are sure to arise.

clarification

my haha wasn't about matron's comment - there was another crazy posting which seems to have since been rightfully removed. so if any indymedia folk would like to remove my 'haha' posting and this too, then i'd be taking up less of your bandwidth unnecessarily.

cheers

SOCPA

27.10.2006 18:57

I had a email from the Press & Communications Officer at CND about this protest and I email them back to ask about the issue of SOCPA and this protest.

I was told by CND that it was "not sure" about how SOCPA will relate to this protest. I was told "we" "assume that Stop the War has cleared it with the police" as "StWC is organising the event".

Still waiting for a email back from StWC. (that will take weeks)

And the Met's "events" page  http://www.met.police.uk/events/index.htm does not have the protest listed as of yet.

please ignore 'haha' comment above

27.10.2006 22:32

it referred to a since removed post

does not refer to matron's comment!

rikki

Seriously..

28.10.2006 11:46

.........I was asking because I want to know. Have the Stop the War Coalition asked the police for permission to have this demo or not? Why so evasive? When I know i will be able to decide whether I want to go or not and whether I want to participate in an illegal or a legal demo?

If you really care to go, you WILL go!

28.10.2006 18:38

No matter how that neo-fascist SCOPA law may be interpreted! What moral and political cowards, deciding whether or not to go based on some possible legal hassles. Not the sort of consideration that ever stopped Martin Luther King (etc.) from doing something worthwhile!
