Peaceful protest @ G20 meeting London @ Bank 2009 1st april
part 1 @ 1pm

police briefings have given the impression that demonstrations will be mounted by anarchists intent on causing trouble.


The broad coalition of protestors also includes: G20 Meltdown, which is calling for G20 ministers to admit that their global dominance is the problem, not the solution to the current economic, ecological and political problems:People and Planet, a student network campaigning on world poverty, human rights and the environment, is encouraging members to protest against the Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) on April 1, which could include actions in London. The group is also targeting RBS's annual general meeting in Edinburgh on April 3: Rising Tide, a network of groups and individuals taking local action on climate change. Activists have dubbed April 1 "Fossil Fools Day", and are planning secret protests at fossil fuel targets around the country: Stop The War Coalition and CND, anti-war groups which have organised major protests against military involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan are organising a rally at the US embassy in London on April 1, as well as a protest at the summit on April 2 at 11am, calling for troops to be withdrawn from the two countries: Youth Fight for Jobs, a campaign highlighting the lack of jobs for young people. A March for Jobs, in the tradition of the Jarrow Marchers, will be held on April 2, passing through some of the poorest boroughs in London.


"jobs, justice and climate", organised by an unprecedented alliance of more than 150 unions, environment, charity, faith and development groups.
