For centuries Mayday has brought people together and out onto the streets.
People danced for the coming summer and the fertility of the crops.
People marched in remembrance and solidarity with their fellow workers
around the world. People gathered in their cities to fight against global
capital and exploitation. Smash EDO invites you to a celebration of all
these aspects and more. In Iraq, Afghanistan and Palestine there are
people who will never plant another seed, work in safety or control what
they produce. These are the people whose lives have been destroyed by war
and occupation whose pain is transferred into profit by the arms trade.
The war machine can only exist through the demands of international
capital and the greed of industry. There has been a long vibrant campaign
to stop these war profiteers in the city of Brighton, come and be part of
it

Smash EDO has been campaigning for over four years to close down EDO
MBM/ITT. EDO produce arms components which are used against civilians
around the world. Smash EDO will not give up until we close the factory
down. Last year hundreds of people from around the country came to the
'Carnival Against the Arms Trade' and Shut ITT demonstrations. Since then
a network of anti-militarist groups has begun working together against
the war machine across the UK. If EDO closes it will send shockwaves
through the UK arms industry We want this to be the biggest show of force
yet against EDO.

Bring passion, drums, flags, sound systems. WEAR RED
