SEMA, Campaign against Climate Change and Fight the Flights from London
City Airport have teamed up to organise a joint demonstration against
domestic flights on Sat 4th September.

The day will begin at 11am at London City Airport. Residents fighting the
increase in flight numbers will join climate campaigners on a special
chartered train from London Euston to Manchester.

There will then be a rally at Manchester Airport at Terminal 3 at 4.30pm.

Afterwards, from 6pm, join us for an evening party at Hasty Lane (WA15 8UT) where we'll be picking surplus fruit with the Abundance Project to donate to a local community centre.

Abundance Manchester is a project which picks surplus or unwanted fruit
from gardens and public trees around South Manchester and distributes it
to local groups and communities.

In November 2009, Manchester Airport was given permission to bulldoze residents houses on Hasty Lane in order to expand the World Freight Centre.

This will all be followed by food and live ceilidh music with the Fig Band.

We hope you can join us for this enjoyable protest and party.
