Every Wednesday 4pm-6pm there's a noise demonstration outside the EDO/ITT arms factory, Home Farm Road, Brighton. This has been going on since 2004! We bang pots and pans, blow whistles, talk on the loud hailer and generally try to make a racket to remind the workers of the part they play in the arms trade. Over the years, we've had vigils, naming the dead demos, halloween demos, drawing demos, Palestine and Iraq themed demos, singing demos... the list goes on.
What we haven't done is had people who can't attend, send us their messages. So get involved! Wherever you are you can e-mail a message/poem/article/ page of a novel- (whatever!) to
smashedo@riseup.net and we will make sure those peddlers of death get the message.
Ever read an article about the arms trade or horrors of war and thought 'who really needs to read this are those ignorant arms dealers'? Maybe you're on the other side of the world but wish you could be more involved?
Have a think, tell your friends, and get e-mailing. We'll try and update you on how the messages went down too. Thanks so much.
