SATURDAY MATINEE
If you have some time today sit down and watch this film. It is about the Mclibel trial and I think many activists and people in general owe a lot to these two people.
It truly is incredible that handing out a leaflet can get you involved in the longest legal battle in British history, and even more remarkable that McDonalds spent millions on legal fees and the two activists only had a little help and still in the end managed to…. well, see for yourself.
If the film makes you want to do something but you can’t be bothered, why not sub-contract the demo out to these people (click here to go to their website)…
Ever wanted to bring capitalism crashing down but can’t get time off work to do it?
Wanna force liberal parliamentary democracy to bow it’s corpulent head in shame but have to take the car into the garage AND do the shopping?
Do you get the urge to jab John Prescott with a stick till he cries like a fat girl but can’t find a stick?
Then McDemo’s is for you, we’ll find the stick and do the jabbing! Let us demonstrate for you!
Anyway, the film, McLibel - Two People Who Wouldn’t Say Sorry
