Climate Election SOS
Calling all crew! Please muster on Devonshire Green on Saturday morning at 08:30 for an action-packed day of Severe Weather Warning themed non-violent civil disobedience as part of the ‘12 Days of Crisis’ campaign to make this the Climate Election.

The climate is disrupted, the forecast is alarming. Please dress for flooding! Life jackets, wet suits, snorkels, kayaks, canoes, rafts, rubber dinghies, umbrellas, wellies or waders, buckets, towels… SOS the ice sheets are melting and we are rising! Come prepared to go overboard!

(If you cannot make it for the start, come and join us throughout the day, but the march will not wait, we cannot hold back the tide – #WeAreAllCrew)
We have a duty to exert pressure in this election, to ensure the Climate and Ecological Emergency is the number one issue on voters’ minds when they cast their ballot next week – and to demand that our politicians sign up to the Three Demands Bill.
