Solidarity Demo at New Court Case of Lancaster Uni Protesters (George Fox 6)

The George Fox Six Appeal: six on trial again from the 13th March!

Join them at the Crown Court on Monday 13th March at 10.00 to show solidarity and support Free Speech and "Education not Exploitation"!

Lots of people have said they'd like to come to Lancaster again to
support the six during their appeal against the conviction for going into a commercialisation conference at their own university. The six are really pleased with the amount of support they have received over the last year, and would like to say 'thankyou', and to invite people to come and join them outside the court on the firstand last day of the retrial.

As one of the six said: "Last time we had so many people when the court case started, and to hear the verdict - and that was so important to us. It showed the university that it can't just hide away these prosecutions and the whole commercialisation programme.

Once again we would like as many people as possible to come
and display their solidarity, not just for the six being prosecuted by the university, but with the belief in the right to protest and freedom of speech, and against the oppressive behaviour of the uni and the police.

"Sadly, the majority of those responsible for criminalising this
peaceful protest will once again not be there. They will be hiding away. But we can show that opposition to their actions has grown, and that we will not allow ourselves to be intimidated by any attempts to silence criticism."

For those coming from outside Lancaster we can arrange accomodation (please drop us a line as soon as you know you are coming).
