Lots of people have said they'd like to come to Lancaster to support the six when they're on trial for handing out leaflets in a privatisation conference at their own
university. The six are really pleased with the amount of support they are receiving, and would like to say thankyou, and to invite people to come and join them outside the
court on the first day of the trial.

As one of the six said: "we would like as many people as possible to come and display their solidarity, not just with those being prosecuted, 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 reasponsible for criminalising this peaceful protest will not be there. They will be hiding away. But we can show that we oppose their actions, and that we will not allow ourselves to be intimidated by their attempts to silence us."

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

DETAILS:

Please come to Lancaster Magistrates Court (Thurnham St. - opposite the police station in the centre of Lancaster) at 8.45 on Monday 26th September.

The trial is scheduled to run for three days, and you are welcome to join us for the whole time if you wish.
