Protest at Gleneagles train station
Stephania Milan writes
On Wednesday, July 6, the first day of the G8 summit, another Live 8 concert organised by Irish rock legend Bob Geldof will take place in Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium to "signal the end of the long walk to justice." It will be preceded by a march.(for full article)
On the same day, activists from the Dissent! network and other groups will march on the golf resort at Gleneagles, Scotland to blockade the G8 summit. An entire week of a variety of protests is already under way, targeting issues affected by G8 policies, such as global war, restrictive immigration and nuclear weapons. The two main items on the G8 agenda are promoting development in Africa and fighting global climate change.
