Press Release – ItsOurFuture.org.nz
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.”

Protest against a rule in Sweden that forbids bar patrons from breaking into dance at establishments that don't have a specific dance license.
So because I didn't know how to download the correct Protest shot I took a photo off my Monitor of my followers. Seems like everyone is getting in on the protest.
Beta has not been forced upon me yet. So I don't know what the problems will be.
What I do know is that changes are everywhere. I am up set with my new version on my I Phone. I like the old version. Why everyone thinks everything has to be up graded I don't know. But I do know we can't stop it.
This simple protest will not stop Flickr from doing what it wants to do. But I will join in.

Yahoo has a history of bad user interfaces, but IMHO they've managed to pull out all the stops with Flickr.
Flickr was, not long ago, easy to use and straight-forward. When the Yahoo yahoos got ahold of it... well, it's evolved into something totally different from that which millions of users knew and loved.
It's choppy, hard to use, and missing so much that I used on a daily basis. For instance... if there's a way to view a photo at full size, I've yet to find it. And why are my photos tagged Restricted as a default?
I still use Flickr because of the huge user base and the name brand. But that doesn't mean I like it.
Now it's just somebody that I used to know.
