URGENT ACTION against Blair U-turn on climate !!!

DEMO OUTSIDE DOWNING STREET, 6.00 pm Thursday 29th

Demo outside Downing Street, 6.00 - 7.00 pm
tomorrow (Thursday) evening:

"Blair Betrayal on Climate"

Speakers:
Dan Rogerson MP ( Lib Dem, North Cornwall)
Cllr Darren Johnson (Green Party London Assembly member)
Flick Cox (National Union of Students Executive)

Both from the leaked transcript from an international meeting in New York, and from his speech at the Labour Party Conference, it now looks like Blair is moving stealthily towards the Bush position which does not back mandatory emissions cuts but which just encourages voluntary 'incentives". This is much more serious than the amount of media coverage given it would imply - it means Blair is effectively dealing the death blow to Kyoto, or any binding international treaty on climate.This is a recipe for global suicide. Blair is now in the process of betraying all those who are working to save our planet from ecological catastrophe, and more importantly all those who will come after us on this planet.

We need to demonstrate that this has not gone unnoticed and people are angry about it. So please make this if you can !
