GET on board on the Resist G8 Trains!

The G8 Summit takes place in Gleneagles, Scotland from the 6th-8th
July 2005. However, there will be many events, demos and direct
actions around Scotland in the days leading up to the summit. The
South East Assembly has chartered two trains to take people up to
the protests against the G8 summit. This will also include the huge
Make Poverty History march on July 2nd in Edinburgh. Every day
there will be different protests at nuclear bases (Faslane July
4th), detention centres (Dungavel July 5th) and several other
initiatives which need support. The trains will depart early
morning from London Kings Cross and arrive in Edinburgh where
accommodation (bring sleeping bags and tents!) will be provided for
free.
