Stop G8 Planning Meeting - Birmingham 22nd September

In 2013 the UK is once again host to the G8 Summit for the first time since 2005, eight world leaders from the most powerful capitalist nations are meeting here on our home turf.

The G8 facilitates irresponsible greed, corporate protectionism, overwhelming inequality and ruthless exploitation. It is here, at the G8 summit, that the economic, political and military objectives for the year ahead will be discussed and agreed.

The G8 summit allows these self-appointed leaders of capitalism to assert their control of natural resources, no matter what the cost to people and the environment.

We believe there is an urgent need to take action against the G8. Our fight against austerity, inequality and exploitation must be fought on all fronts but the resistance must start here, at the top, where the big decisions are taken and the key allegiances are formed. They must not be permitted to meet here unimpeded, and must be made to understand that wherever they meet, wherever they go, they will be opposed and resisted.

WE ARE MANY, THEY ARE FEW. AND WE ARE EVERYWHERE.

This group was formed to stop G8in 2013. We’ve adopted in principle the PGA hallmarks.

Planning meetings are for people who want to contribute to the mobilisation against the G8. All JOURNALISTS and COPS, are politely requested not to attend.

"All JOURNALISTS and COPS, are politely requested not to attend."

Bit late for that - you have a cop on the committee and have had undercover journos at every meeting so far - despite being told this some weeks ago and proof being provided you did nothing, WHY IS THAT ?
