Adidas Protest

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

People and Planet are organizing for students up and down the country to protest at their local Adidas supplier (Footlocker) this coming Monday, 22nd April at 15.00. Adidas have refused to pay any redundancy pay to their Indonesian factory workers. This is illegal and insulting. Join other Leeds people to protest outside Footlocker, pressure footlocker to cut ties with Adidas and inform the public.

G8 discussion

Submitted by Alice King on

The G8 (heads of the eight most economically powerfully countries in the world) is meeting in the UK in June 2013. To many people these meetings are something to be opposed, and historically there have been large mobilisations to target them. With the next one being held here in the UK, people have started to think about how to organise to oppose it this time.

Police terrorism ads

Submitted by greenaction on

The police have bested their own impressive record for insane and stupid anti-terrorism posters with a new range of signs advising us to go through each others' trash-bins looking for "suspicious" chemical bottles, and to report on one another for "studying CCTV cameras."
