G8 Prisoner Update - 20 July 2005
Posted 19:59 20 July 2005: There are 2 prisoners held on remand till their court cases open in August.
Both agreed to have their name and address publicised to receive more support, especially appreciating letters, postcards and information.
1, David Boudon, 92018, HM Prison Barlinnie, Glasgow, G33 2QX
2, John Mackie 18769, HM Prison Edinburgh, 33 Stenhouse Road, Edinburgh EH11 3LN
John is a local who hasn't been previously involved in activism so far as we know.
Donations to support the prisoners can be made to the Legal Defense and Monitoring Group (LDMG) in London, as we locally (Scotland) haven't yet got the bank account sorted.
Also, the LDMG bank account is given as the bank account in which to drop donations for the G8 Legal Support team; they are very experienced and former prisoners speak highly of them.
See http://g8legalsupport.info/donate-please/ for info on how to make a donation.
Alternatively, visit a bank (without smashing it up first) and pay directly into the LDMG account. All funds will be used for legal support and assistance to prisoners.

Police Review: magazine cartoon - "In staggeringly poor taste"
from J4J campaign, 18 November 2008: We would imagine that, in the midst of the inquest into the death of Jean Charles de Menezes, publications aimed at and widely read by serving police officers would show greater sensitivity in the way they talk about fatal shootings by the police. But evidently not. The magazine "Police Review", in its 14 November edition, decided that the introduction of new rules preventing firearms officers from conferring after a shooting was best illustrated by this appalling cartoon. more
