report back from the SPEAK demo in Oxford against the £20 million vivisection lab under construction.
Hundreds of campaigners took to the streets of Oxford earlier today to protest the construction of an animal torture lab bein built by Oxford Uni. Halfway throuh the march, and out of sight of the public, the police changed the agreed route of the march and penned us in 50 meters away from the lab. After some pushing and shoving, in which the cops shoved an old woman to the ground, and we nearly broke throuh on several occasions, protestors trashed a police fence and found a side route to the lab, not making it there, but giving the cops a good run around! We were then slowly escorted back to the start point of the demo, where most of us were forbidden from attending the after demo chill out.
There is to be another demo on the 22nd of April, and a huge turnout would be great, coz it wont beto late to shut the construction down, like we did 18 months ago, but this time for good. You can keep up to date on www.speakcamaign.org.uk.
On a related note, the first crane is to be moved to the construction site at around 4 in the morning on monday or tuesday, there are plans to greet them, so come along if you can.
