Another meeting is taking place at Skylight 66 Commercial Street on Saturday

05.10.2006 09:07

A group of us who are interested in this action are holding our own meeting to discuss what to do at Skylight 66 Commercial Street in the top floor room this Saturday at 1pm. A few weeks ago a couple of us mentioned this action to people in the tea room at the top of the building and we got an excellent response with loads of people really interested and wanting to come along. So on Saturday afternoon from 1pm a load of us will be meeting in the tea room on the top floor to discuss what is going to happen. At previous informal mini meetings we decided it safest not to bring any banners or placards to this action because of the ban on protests without permission near parliament. We also suggested how to avoid getting penned in by the police by spreading ourselves out and keeping mobile.

Just to mention to people planning to come to any of the events it is likely that the police will in all probability be outside taking photos. Don't be intimidated by them, that is why they're there. But you might want to wear a scarve in the cold of the autumn!
