The lead-up to Saturdays protests against the TPPA shows the commitment of people across the country to send a message that the government cant ignore, said ItsOurFuture spokesperson Edward Miller.Nationwide day of action against TPPA: “Ignore us at your peril” government warned
“The lead-up to Saturday’s protests against the TPPA shows the commitment of people across the country to send a message that the government can’t ignore”, said ItsOurFuture spokesperson Edward Miller.
A video shows young activists publicising Saturday’s nationwide protests with footage from Auckland, Wellington, Dunedin, Christchurch, and Nelson.
Action in the 22 centres starts at 10am in Raglan and many of the larger centre marches begin at 1pm, including Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
“People have been incredibly creative”, Miller said. “In Christchurch a giant plain-packaged cigarette packet will be marching in the crowd, while Auckland will be led by an enormous Trojan Horse, locked in a tug-of-war between major commercial interests and activist communities.”
“Around the country everyday kiwis will be photographed for a virtual campaign with signs saying ‘I am a ___________ and I say #TPPANoDeal.’ Already this campaign has been very popular.”
“Trade minister Tim Groser needs to recognise that people don’t buy the ‘trust me’ line. They want to be listened to when they say they don’t want the TPPA. And they deserve to be listened to.”

Stop the Islamisation of Europe called for a demonstration outside Harrow Mosque in North West London to coincide with evening prayers on Friday September 11th. The protest was also being promoted by the English Defence League who have repeatedly clashed with Muslims and Anti-fascists in recent months. A counter demonstration was called by Unite Against Fascism.
About 1000 counter demonstrators gathered to protect the Mosque during the afternoon. Police ordered Stop the Islamisation of Europe to call of the protest to prevent violence.
A small group (less than 20) of English Defence League protesters were chased from the area by the counter demonstrators and were escorted away by the Police.
Frustrated elements of the crowd then turned on the Police resulting in a few skirmishes with bottles, stones and firecrackers being thrown. Other sections of the protesters eventually restrained these elements and by about 7.30 in the evening the crowd had started to disperse.
There were 10 arrests reported.
