Human Rights Day 10th December 2010
Calling one and all
Mass People's Assembly in celebration and support of "Human Rights"

Unite as ONE on this day. Make your voices heard.
Let us exercise our right to freedom of speech and peaceful demonstration
We are calling all peoples to join us in free and peaceful demonstration to celebrate this day "Human Rights Day"
The public assembly will begin at 12 Noon outside number 10 Downing Street in Whitehall, Westminster, London SW1.
This is an autonomous event and all are asked to maintain the peace and equilibrium in the spirit of celebration.
We do not want to pay for the mistakes of the bankers; we do not want the self elected quango government and councils to decide on unjust and repressive cuts.
We want free education, we want better health care, we want job security, and we want affordable, available housing.
We want real reform. We want the banks to be ordered to give their bonus money back, and pay back the money lent to them from the public's purse. We want vodafone to pay its taxes.
We want real proportional representation where all votes are counted.
We want war criminals to be brought to book.
We want fully transparent public consultations on all things that affect the people.
Government and councils decisions should be held to account by the people.
We want our government to begin bringing troops home from illegal wars, we want fair taxes with a say in how those taxes are spent by any government.
We want civil rights upheld.
We want human rights respected and recognized.
We are the people
