Demo against Santander, Brighton - in Solidarity with the Arab Uprisings

Global Intifada | 24.05.2011 16:51 | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | Palestine | South Coast | World

Friday 27th May - 4pm-6pm

Meet outside Santander on 56 Western Road.

Santander invests in cluster bombs.

Cluster bombs are brightly-coloured lethal bomblets which can be mistaken for toys by children. In Libya, Spanish versions have rained down on unarmed residents of Misrata.

The manufacture of cluster bombs is banned in many states yet still they are being financed by banks such as Santander.

It is estimated 1,000 people including more than 20 children have died in the Libyan city of Misrata. In the meantime more than 600 people have been killed and at least 2,500 others detained in Syria.

We stand in solidarity with the people seeking to overthrow the repressive dicatorships/regimes in Libya, Syria, Yemen, Bahrain...
