The first ever London demo : Burma Out! To the sound of gongs, bells and trumpets. The first ever London demonstration to oust Burma from the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games took place on Friday afternoon outside the Australian High Commission. Representatives of five different organisations and unions were present on a warm day under a cloudy sky. Also in attendence were members of the press corp and the BBC. The police not only kept a low profile but were interested that their own hard work to throw illegal drugs off our streets was now being supported by a genuine People's War on drugs. Burma Out!! After the demo, with the organisers smiling and somewhat fortified by the local brews, met to exchange ideas and decide the next steps in this long campaign . And later to meet with a team of lawyers who, as they work close by the Aus High Commission, are now interested in bringing their legal expertise into this fun filled fray. In a rapid effort to bring more publicity and power to its own campaigning. Burma Out! may soon link with the UK official agencies. The People's war against drugs from Burma has been asked to submit a formal proposal to the UK's anti drug decision makers in Westminster.. This, along with the requested proposal to the head of the DEA in Washington DC, has now been completed. Next demos Tuesday London.... Premier Oil 11.30am Thursday 27th 4pm Aus HC .. Burma Out!
