STOP THE WAR’S DEMONSTRATION AT TATE MODERN CANCELLED

Tony Blair’s decision to cancel his party at Tate Modern gallery today, following him pulling out of a book-signing at Waterstone’s, is another victory for the anti war movement and for the overwhelming majority in Britain who oppose his wars.

With Blair running scared of peaceful, democratic protests, Stop the War has cancelled the demonstration against Tate Modern being used to celebrate the publication of a war criminal’s book.

The number of prominent artists who supported the Tate protest is yet another indication of how widespread is the determination that Blair will one day be held to account for his war crimes in Iraq.

STOP THE WAR MEETING IN HOUSE OF COMMONS TONIGHT
The ignominy of war criminal Blair scuttling away from any contact with the general public is bound to be discussed at tonight’s public meeting in the House of Commons. Anti-war MPs speaking at the meeting, including Caroline Lucas, Paul Flynn and Jeremy Corbyn, will say why they will be calling in tomorrow’s parliamentary debate for all the troops to come home from Afghanistan now. Tomorrow will be the first time that MPs vote on the Afghan war.

WEDNESDAY 8 SEPTEMBER 7PM
HOUSE OF COMMONS (RIGHTSIDE ENTRANCE):
