Southampton volunteers collecting signed DarkSide cards

Three hours, two cafes, six volunteers in two shifts, 102 VW cards signed by members of the public in Southampton city centre yesterday - yet another example of the clear message being sent to VW - meet Greenpeace and stop lobbying against effective climate change legislation. Despite direct actions in various countries, thousands of messages like those shown here signed by members of the public plus a huge amount of asking nicely (if persistently) online is places such as facebook, VW are still not responding to this simple request and are stubbornly remaining with the Dark Side.

So, the campaign continues - watch this space for more events, appearances by Stormtroopers who've seen the Light, film nights and more. If you haven't already, why not join the Rebellion (it's not too late for a New-ish Year's resolution!) and/or join the growing ranks of Jedi asking VW via their facebook pages.
