Fluent Deals in Death - Anti-DSEi Protest
02-09-2003 16:46
Fluent Inc had their European HQ in Sheffield targeted by anti-war protestors because they are an exhibitor at the DSEi arms fair in London next week.
Protestors barricaded themselves in the main entrance revolving door, scaled the entrance canopy to drape a Fluent Deal in Death banner and two protestors locked themselves to the front door with d-locks.
Previous Sheffield DSEi actions include a protest in the city centre and public meeting.
