Late World Day Against McDonalds thing





Two campaigners held a belated mini protest for World Day Against McDonalds today 18th Oct 08 in Cambridge city centre. The ‘What’s Wrong With McDonalds’ leaflets were distributed. (For a copy see  http://www.mcspotlight.org/campaigns/current/resources/index.html ) Passers by showed an interest and took leaflets. Some people took pictures.

Back in June one of the activists was arrested on a walk in protest at the same McDonalds and is awaiting trial in December. The activist is charged under Section 5 of the Public Order Act. See  http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/regions/cambridge/2008/06/401637.html
A pre-trial hearing was held in July where a trial was set for September. However it was later postponed until December after a witness was apparently ill.
