For people interested in something a little more direct than the big climate demo in London tomorrow...


Tonight, all Flight Centre branches in Manchester city centre have been superglued closed, in time for Saturday trading and to coincide with the climate march in London tomorrow. They were pasted with notices saying: "Closed - we want your kids to have a planet"

The UK's only Hummer dealership, Bauer Millett, was also locked shut with a D-lock.

Stickers have also started appearing all over Manchester with "The Tide is Rising" and a blue line...see earlier post about a banner drop,  https://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2007/12/387297.html

Denying people acsess to stores smacks of fascism. Global warming is a major issues which the public are concerned about but they won't be interested in the issues when they see a bunch of self appointed eco warriors closing travel agents to stop people from flying.

Denying people acsess to a planet to live on smacks of fascism. Global warming is a major issues which the public are concerned about but they won't be interested in saving themselves or others when they see a bunch of self appointed indymedia trolls making excuses for their own lack of responsibility or action.
