UK Thailand Solidarity Campaign Open Meeting – 13th June, London
The UK section of the International Solidarity for Thailand Campaign is holding an open planning meeting on Sunday 13th June 2010 from 1pm to 3pm.
Venue: Development House, 56-64 Leonard Street, London, EC2A 4LT
Nearest tube: Old Street
The situation in Thailand hasn’t died down but instead worsened since the bloody climax of the military crackdown.
Many people both of Red shirt affiliation and of none are being imprisoned for accessing political websites and newspapers.
We have campaigned against the government and not for Thaksin and seen one of the many political prisoners, an academic, Dr Suthachai Yimprasert released. We have built alliances across Europe, Asia and also in Australia as well as Thailand. However we need to deepen and broaden our bases in the UK.
Amnesty has noted the criminalisation and censorship of the free media/press but there isn’t a campaign.
More suggestions of direct action in solidarity with those fighting against authoritarianism and censorship. Bring your thoughts, criticism, suggestions and friends.
This campaign will continue as long as injustice continues and the Abhisit government continues to act with impunity.
Solidarity with the people of Thailand

I am so grateful for you and your activists for organising a campaign in the UK to help people of Thailand, to end the violence inflicted by its own government and to call for justice for the people who have been killed in the bloodied violence in April and May 2010.
I hope that justice will prevail and that many organisations and people of the world can help in bringing the illigimate government of Abhisit down and in ensuring that there will be a fair and just General Election in Thailand.
