We ran a very succesful info stall about the Saloniki prisoners
last Friday evening, 52 people signed postcards to the Greek ambassador,
400 leaflets were doled out and we made 28 squid in donations (thanks mainly to
the amazing bloke who gave us 20 squid!) Also thanks to George we had a laptop
so we were able to show passers by the video evidence of Simon's blatant
fit-up at the hands of the cops.

As previous emails have shown the situation is now getting very
desperate, so it is crucial that we keep this pressure up. The authorities
in Greece are begining to respond to what is essentially a PR disaster at
a very inopportune time for them (they are hosting the olympics in 2004(?)
so they want to keep their image squeaky clean right now) by promising
investigations into police misconduct etc... Therefore the solidarity
campaign IS WORKING and we must continue it.

So THIS TUESDAY meet in the KINGS BAR at MIDDAY if you want to
help out with the next stall. Loads of people have heard about this case
and are prepared to give their support, and ultimately it is only this
level of public interest in the prisoners' welfare that gives them any
hope of seeing justice done.

lotsa love mAt
