A call for all peace groups to establish contact and co-ordinate with each other.

Uniting the anti-war movement.
It struck me on Saturday that it would be useful for all the anti-war and peace groups and alliances around the country to have a proper way of contacting each other. This way, if one group plans an action or calls a demo the other groups can be informed about it in plenty of time. We can also co-ordinate with each other to jam Bertie’s office/ Dept. of foreign affairs/Aer Rianta etc. with emails, faxes and phone-calls.
I am trying to compile a list of all the groups with at least two phone-numbers and email addresses for each group. The list will then be sent to everyone on the list. I don’t care about anybody’s politics or tactics- we are all against war and we all need to help and support each other’s actions and be a bit more organised about what we do.
Please email me with
(i) The name of your group
(ii) How to contact you- at least 2 phone-numbers and email addresses.
(iii) When and where you meet
(iv) Roughly how many people are in your group
