Party at the Pumps – Pix-&-Vidz – Sat 10 Apr 10

A1. "All your base are belong to us!"
Dateline: Party at the Pumps, Shepherd's Bush Green BP Petrol Station, London, UK, 13:00-17:00, Sat 10 Apr 10 – Hundreds of people descend upon the BP petrol station on the south side of Shepherd's Bush Common for a four hour long 'Party at the Pumps'. Dancing to live music from the Rhythms of Resistance samba band and the Green Kite Midnight ceilidh band, plus MP3s piped through the Bicycology sound system, we rocked the forecourt, left peacefully and there were no arrests. But why? This was the London direct action component of an International Day of Action on the Canadian Tar Sands – the single most dirty, toxic and dangerous climate crime atrocity on Earth; and the centrepiece of the 'BP Fortnight of Shame', culminating in a vote at the BP shareholder's AGM in London on Thursday 15 April 2010 to keep BP out of the planet-trashing Canadian Tar Sands (protest details below).
