International Socialist resistance

International youth camp

We have booked a 4-star campsite in Strathclyde National Park with toilets, hot showers and cooking facilities. A coach will transport us to the various locations of the meetings and protests. Breakfast and dinner included in the price (see below).

We will hold a briefing meeting each morning where we can discuss the plans for the day and assess the activities of the previous day.

Transport

Please note the change of time - the London coach will now depart at 10.30pm from York Way, Kings Cross (not midnight as previously advertised).

For those from the north and west of the country please ring us for details ofp local transport on 020 8558 7947.

Other areas should look at getting student unions to organise transport but also where possible cars and minibuses driven by members will be very useful for the duration of the camp.

There will be transport back to London on 7 July for those who stay for the camp and on 2 July for those who can't.

The turn-out is growing! We now have gone over our initial target for getting people to the protests and the camp. Three people phoned us about the camp just on Saturday morning, having seen the leaflet and many more are contacting us over the web.

We have the potential to get even more young people to the G8 protests and we are having enormous impact on our street activities with many people giving donations to help others to go.

Young people are going to Scotland to protest against what the G8 leaders stand for and some will be looking for answers to this rotten system - they are against capitalism and many want to know about socialist ideas. Every member should do their best to encourage young people we come across to join our socialist (and sociable!) camp.
