EDO/ITT is, if heading north from Moulsecoomb station, the fourth out of five warehouses. It’s a large white and green building, which unfortunately looks quite similar to its neighbours, particularly from behind. http://smashedo.org.uk/about/finding-edo

Support Vigil for arms fair protester

Chris was arrested for spraying ‘DSEi Kills’ and ‘Stop the Arms Trade’ at the entrance to the arms fair as delegates queued to enter. He has pleaded ‘not guilty’ to charges of Criminal Damage arguing that he was acting to prevent the unlawful activity that was taking place at the arms fair.

Campaign Against Arms Trade: Birmingham Campaign Day
One year has passed since the UK was condemned for its arms sales to authoritarian regimes in the Middle East and North Africa …but the UK is still supplying weapons to dictators.
This time last year, while UK weapons were being used against civilians in Libya, David Cameron went on a tour to promote weapons sales in the Middle East. In 2011, Saudi Arabia deployed armoured vehicles to help suppress protests in Bahrain, but UK arms sales to the kingdom never even slowed.
Now is the time to take action to expose that This is NOT OK.
East London Against Arms Fairs Meeting
Arms dealers, agents of cruel regimes and war profiteers from all over the world have been invited to another Arms Fair in 2013 at the ExCeL Exhibition Centre in Custom House.

Get ready for a summer of resistance against the arms trade with Smash EDO & CAAT
In the last year, British armoured vehicles, tear gas and weapons have been turned on democracy protesters in the Middle East and North Africa. Despite this, the UK continues to arm these repressive regimes. The weapons are made in the UK. They are promoted and licensed by the UK government. It is up to us to stop this happening.
CAAT National Gathering
CAAT National Gathering. An important day of learning, networking and planning for action to stop the arms fair in 2013.
Exactly six months before it is scheduled, come to CAAT's National Gathering. For one day, we can be together to share ideas and inspiration, hear from experts, engage in debate and plan how we can make a direct impact on the arms trade.
Hear from author Owen Jones, who has written in The Independent, about the use of UK-made weapons in repressive states against civilians, and the close ties between members of the arms trade and British government.
