Friday 10th - Freedom to protest Public Meeting
Public Meeting demands ‘No to Police Harassment of Demonstrations’
The Right to Protest is NOT a Police Privilege

Following the 19th August demonstration against the Lebanon demonstration,
which came under severe harassment and attack by Sussex Police, with intrusive
videoing and filming of children and protestors alike, a number of organisations
are coming together to hold a public meeting to demand ‘No to Police Harassment
of Demonstrations and Protestors’.

The Public Meeting, at 7.30 p.m. on Friday 10th November at the Friends
Meeting House, Ship Street will have a number of speakers including Cllrs.
Francis Tonks and Simon Williams of the Green Party, Tony Greenstein of
Palestine Solidarity/Alliance for Green Socialism, Glenn Williams of Sussex
Action for Peace, Abu Bakr of the Save Omar Deghayes Campaign James Elsdon-Baker
from No2ID Campaign and a speaker from the Smash EDO campaign.

The primary theme of the meeting will be the defence of democratic rights at a
time when terrorism is being used as the excuse to undermine the most basic and
taken for granted human rights. Internment, Control Orders, Habeus Corpus – long
standing rights of freedom and liberty are being undermined in the ‘war against
terror’. The meeting is being held under Benjamin Franklin’s watchword – ‘Those
who trade liberty for security deserve neither’. Two hundred years later it is
still appropriate.
