"Shut Down Tax Dodging Vodafone": Cornmarket 2PM SAT 30TH

Oxford Anti Cuts | 29.10.2010 01:31 | Social Struggles | Oxford

FIGHT THE CUTS: ACTION AT VODAFONE
SATURDAY 30/10 2PM, CORNMARKET
SPREAD THE WORD

Shut Down Vodafone store, London
Shut Down Vodafone store, London


This Saturday is a national day of action against Vodafone, who have merrily avoided over £6 billion in taxes. All of this while the Chancellor is telling us that his huge public spending cuts are "fair", and that "we're in this together"... right. This campaign is an explosive expansion on action already taken this Wednesday at Vodafone's flagship store in London. See the brilliant video  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DOnLZeul4Fg

We're told that fighting the defecit is such a pressing issue, and so far we're doing very well highlighting the terrible impact of this spending slash. Saturday's action on Cornmarket offers us a brilliant opportunity to put forward an alternative: start with claiming the £12 billion a year owed to us by some of the world's richest companies before raiding public services.

There's no plan, but if there were one...

1. Head over to Vodafone's shop on Cornmarket for 2pm this Saturday
2. Browse for phones. Look normal.
3. On the signal, have a nice (and effective) sit-down.

With hundreds participating in similar actions across the country, we'll be making a stand against the government's self serving and unjust agenda. Vodafone ducked out of billions in tax, and the government helped them do it!

Read more about the national day of action and more detail on Vodafone's creative accounting on the UK Uncut Website ( http://ukuncut.wordpress.com).

We took to the streets in great number and pride on Thursday, and that was only the beginning; let's push this campaign to the next stage and prove that there are alternatives to the savage cuts we face.

Solidarity,
