DSEI - Day of Action. Details for the day

Stop The Arms Fair | 10.08.2015 11:57 | Anti-militarism

On Saturday 12th Sept, take part in a big day of action to challenge the arms fair on the weekend before the arms fair begins.

This fun and accessible action will be the culmination of a week of action in the run up to the arms fair to make it as difficult as possible for it to go ahead. Exhibition equipment and military hardware will be rolling (or sailing) into ExCeL – let’s stop it getting to its destination!

In preparation for the action we are asking people to meet up at Canary Wharf station where there will be a Stop The Arms Fair bus with details of what to do next. We will be offering a free delicious Vegan breakfast between 9am and 11am after which we will move all together to the death fair where the mass action will take place.

The action will divide into two streams, the first will be a fluffy action for those not happy to be arrested or to be confrontational with cops. The second will be a direct but non-violent action that will confront the show and is intended to delay the set up and even cause the show to open late. One action will follow the other so people can take part in both or just one of them.

actions during DSEi itself

This is great, but let's consider doing things during the arms fair itself as well - otherwise it feels like a bit of a step backwards.
