15th February Rally BANNED!!

Dear All I just heard (was I dreaming?) that the 15th February anti-war rally has been BANNED by the Dept of Culture, Media and Sport on grounds of health and safety and because of the weather. First they plan to ban strikes (firefighters), now they ban dissent! How can any self-respecting democrat now support Blair? First they came for the terrorists, then the asylum seekers, then the trade unionists, now.... the people. Where is this government going? As Harold Pinter said at the Stop the War parliamentary lobby last week, we have an obligation to resist. These words are more true today. Over to you STWC leadership.

This is very serious, if you doubt this just go over to http://uk.indymedia.org/front.php3?article_id=51819&group=webcast
