'YES WE CAN' - DEMONSTRATE AT THE G20 IN LONDON WED APRIL 1ST

The leaders of the world's big powers will meet at the G20 summit in London in April. It is Barack Obama's first visit to Britain. It is our chance to demand a change from Bush's war policies. The Stop the War Coalition, Palestine Solidarity Campaign, The British Muslim Initiative, and CND have called a demonstration in central London on the afternoon of April 1^st while Barack Obama is speaking to Parliament. We will be marching from the US Embassy in Grosvenor Square through Central London.

Our message will be 'Yes We Can'. Yes we can END THE SIEGE OF GAZA and FREE PALESTINE, yes we can GET THE TROOPS OUT OF IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN, yes we can MAKE JOBS NOT BOMBS, yes we can ABOLISH NUKES, yes we can STOP ARMING ISRAEL.

The G20 will meet at a time of world slump but they are spending more and more on war. Despite the disaster in Iraq and Afghanistan, the US and Britain are sending thousands more troops to Afghanistan. They are spending more and more in Iraq. The total cost of the war will be around 6 trillion dollars.

Most G20 leaders support Israel and refused to condemn Israel's attack on Gaza or the continuing blockade. The US, Britain and others are still selling arms to Israel. Israel receives more aid from the US than any other country in world. The US spends $54 Bn and Britain nearly £2Bn every year on nuclear weapons.
