SHAC Tour Barclays in London

05-08-2008 15:11

Monday 4th August

We started the day of demonstrations with a short, sharp trip to NYSE/Euronext. A 20 minute loud burst to let them know that we're not going to forget their murky dealings with HLS. However, this day was for Barclays, HLS's new biggest shareholder, so we left the NYSE to do the rounds...

03-08-2008 00:02

Welcome to the August 2008 edition of Spirit of Freedom. As people will soon see, ELP's prisoner lists have grown yet again.

DC Protests at HLS Customers

01-08-2008 12:25

On Friday, July 18, animal rights advocates celebrated the decision by Raymond James to dump their HLS stock by protesting at the offices of Merck, Sanofi-Aventis, and Novartis, all of which have yet to follow Raymond James's sensible lead. What began as a normal day for the greedy opportunists at Merck, Novartis, and Sanofi Aventis turned into one that they would hope to forget. Compassionate individuals descended upon their offices, protesting their continued use of the animal abusers at Huntingdon Life Sciences. With signs and bullhorns, activists took to the streets.

Pre Work Demo At AstraZeneca

30-07-2008 01:32

We were all up early for an 8am demonstration at AstraZeneca, one of HLS customers. Just by standing offering leaflets and holding banners we really had a big impact at this time of day, as everyone that works in this area passes through at that time. It's often surprising to people that protesters get up early to go and work as well!
