Occupy the World...

Posted by Barry D - 3 November 2011 at 8:25pm - Comments

...was a blogpost from Kumi Naidoo on the GP international site, in which he endorses the Occupy movement and encourages others to get involved.

GP USA is directly involved with Occupy Wall St. They've provided the solar truck “Rolling Sunlight” to help power the OWS media centre.

But here in the UK, GP hasn't uttered as much as a squeak about what's going on in London and elsewhere. For reasons best known to themselves, the Kumi post wasn't published on the GP UK website.

I'm sure - like myself - GP supporters all over are right behind the Occupy movement. There are groups around the UK, including here in Glasgow.

Here in Glasgow, protesters have agreed to relocate to Kelvingrove park at the weekend.

In Edinburgh, STV Edinburgh is planning a live online debate on Friday at 12.30pm with Occupy Edinburgh protesters. If you have a question you'd like to ask the Occupy Edinburgh protesters email it to us on edinburgh@stv.tv.
