Protest against the bankers and bombers

Campaign Against Arms Trade | 02.09.2011 14:54 | Anti-militarism | Palestine

Are you a banker or arms dealer hoping to profit from repression in the Middle East? Then this is the event for you!

"MIDDLE EAST: A VAST MARKET FOR UK DEFENCE AND SECURITY COMPANIES"

 http://www.londonchamber.co.uk/DocImages/9245.pdf

"With the government’s increased focus on exports, UK defence and security companies are urged to look at international emerging markets to increase their business potential. The Middle East is one of the regions with the greatest number of opportunities for UK defence and security companies."

Alternatively, don your finest pinstripes and join us outside the venue at 2.30pm on Thursday 8th September for an action to say This is NOT OK.

Time 08 September · 14:30 - 18:00

Location Royal Bank of Scotland, 250 Bishopsgate, London EC2M 4AA

Rumours that the event was cancelled appear to be disinfo

The event is still advertised, and tickets are still being sold.

Even if the event were to be cancelled, RBS is a valid target for protest, as it is deeply enmeshed in funding the arms trade.*
