Some pictures of the action today at St Leonards, which was called in solidarity with an Edinburgh protestor arrested during an anti-war demo earlier this year.
A successful action took place today, involving the distribution of hundreds of 'fuck bush' postcards in an attempt to embarass the police's use of the 'inciting racial hatred' bill, used against an Edinburgh protestor for the same slogan. As part of an ongoing campaign Mark Thomas came with allies from the south, accompanied with around 70 folk from Edinburgh. After much persuading, Mark Thomas, a friend of his and a Green MSP were taken in for (brief!) questioning.
