Cambridge protest against Israeli attack

31-05-2010 15:44

Over 40 people gathered in Cambridge Market square today in an emergency vigil, to protest against the Israeli attack on the aid flotilla. Israeli commandos boarded one of the humanitarian aid ships at dawn and killed over 10 people.

The vigil was called at very short notice, and coincided with the larger demo outside Isreali embassy in London. In Cambridge people gathered with peace signs as well as plackards with slogans such as "stop the occupation", and "end the blockade on Gaza". Leaflets were distributed with background on the occupation of Palestine, and activists chalked the news on the pavement.

Nottingham anti-arms-trade activist convicted

23-05-2010 12:14

The 18th Feb blockade of Heckler & Koch
On May 20th at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court, anti-arms-trade activist Kirk Jackson was found guilty of aggravated trespass for his part in a protest that shut down an arms company for a day. Jackson was given a twelve month conditional discharge and ordered to pay £350 court costs.

The charge arose from a February 18th protest at the Nottingham warehouse of international arms company Heckler & Koch. Before dawn, four activists locked themselves to the gates, preventing employees from entering, while Mr Jackson and another activist climbed onto the roof and displayed banners accusing the company of “arming repressive regimes”.
