There is a lot being organised, some patience at the moment wouldn't go a miss ; )

Meetings have taken place organising a mass convergence in the city of London, targeting the financial institutions that uphold economic policies and the capital itself. Details and a press release coming soon, next week word has it. The organising has been late, not crap, as the g20 date was only agreed late last year. Since then meetings have devloped as fast as possible. Calls for action have already been announced in France and abroad for example.

It might seem like there has been silence from radicals, anti-authoritarians and anarchists alike as a lot is going on under the surface. This will all be revealed next week as other groups echo the call(s) for action (that's an incentive to write one on behalf of your group).

There's also this link, not sure of the relevance though  http://www.g-20meltdown.org

There is a meeting in London this weekend and one on Wednesday in Bristol to discuss it. But yeah so far it's not looking great.

We are seeking films, speakers, ideas, and venue for an evening (or evenings) of G20 related film and discussion - international financial systems and alternative economics perhaps? Recommendations and collaborations very welcome.

there will be some sort of autonomous bloc at least on the trade union march on the 28th. more details will follow in the coming couple of weeks...

Climate Camp hits the City of London on April Fools Day, the eve of the
G20 leaders' London Summit. Join us!

Climate camp 2009 /// Stopping carbon markets /// Because nature doesn't
do bailouts.

First the city traders speculated with our homes, jobs and money – with
disastrous results. Now they are speculating with our climate and the
very future of life on earth – and once again our governments are
cheering them on.

By creating a brain-bending system of carbon pollution licenses, fossil
fuel companies and trading firms have found a way to keep on churning
out global warming gases and to reap huge windfall profits at the same
time. Meanwhile, the UK government is justifying a third runway at
Heathrow and a coal-fired power station at Kingsnorth by saying that
these new “carbon trading” schemes will magically make all their
emissions vanish.

They are handing control of our climate over to the same people and
systems that caused the financial collapse. All the workable and fair
alternatives aren't getting a look-in.

We need to stop this foolishness.

We've camped against the Heathrow runway, we've camped against the
Kingsnorth coal power station. Now its time to camp against the
over-arching problem: absolute faith in unfettered markets and endless
economic growth. On April 1st the G20 leaders arrive in London. At a
time of climate crisis their response to the market meltdown is
emergency loans to car manufacturers, increased spending to encourage
consumption, and bailouts for the very people who got us into this mess
- just the things that will make the climate crisis worse.

Don’t let them get away with it: join our camp in the Square Mile!
Gather at noon, April 1st, at the European Climate Exchange, Hasilwood
House, 62 Bishopsgate, EC2N 4AW. Bring a pop-up tent, sleeping bag, wind
turbine, mobile cinema, action plans and ideas...let’s imagine another
world.

Don't let the financial and fossil fools make the rules!

As the name suggests, G20's related to the G8, but bigger. So the G8 plus various assorted allies like Brazil, India, Saudi Arabia and South Korea. Still, no matter how many countries they come from, the ruling class is still our enemy. See you in London, hopefully.
