One Common Struggle.

This June the leaders of the G8 (the world’s richest countries) are
meeting in Northern Ireland. As economic crisis bites, and the planet
burns, the bosses and their politicians are celebrating business as usual.
Capitalism : a system that kills, exploits, and degrades the many for the
profit of a few.

On June 10-18 we are organising a week of action and events in London.
London is at the heart of global capitalism. The corporations, banks,
hedge funds, and billionaires looting our world have names and addresses.
They are in the glass towers of the City, and behind unmarked doors in
Mayfair and Knightsbridge. London is the money-laundering den of
dictators, the playground of the super-rich. But London is our city too. A
city of hope, resistance, and struggle.

Capitalism is killing us. Unemployment, cuts, and the rise of fascism in
the “West”. Poverty, colonialism, brutal exploitation in the “Third
World”. War and famine for profit. Private prisons, police checks, CCTV to
keep us scared and controlled. Life robbed of meaning and beauty, our
dreams and our dignity for sale.

Don’t ignore. Don’t wait. For our friends and loved ones, for our
communities, for our planet, for everything they’re trying to take from
us. The time is now. Let’s come together, and fight. One common struggle.

Join us on the streets :

June 11 : Big day of action in Central London.
June 17-18 : G8 Summit, Enniskillen, North of Ireland.
June 10-18 : Week of actions, talks, meet-ups, films, games, concerts, and
more, all over London and beyond.

What about the summit in Enniskillen ?

We believe that any action at the summit in Enniskillen needs to be
started locally. The StopG8 network will support a locally organised
mobilisation. For now, we are keeping the end of the week free. We will
let you know as soon as there is more information.

Coming to London :

We welcome people from outside the UK to get involved in the mobilisation.
There will be convergence and sleeping spaces for people travelling to
London for the week of action (10-18 June).

To get involved and keep in touch with us, please join the Stop G8
International mailing list. This is open to anyone to join, you just need

as possible. If you can help, please join the translation list. Again, you
