fUNFAIR GAMES

*?*** fUNFAIR will have games & stalls that represent our broken system. Will you or your group build a fUnfair game?

? Think coconut not-shy, don’t-hook-a-duck and un-hoopla. Or games like play-your-cards-wrong and family mis-fortunes…

? Make them bright, exciting and accessible. Starting unfair and ending up a bit fairer as the weekend progresses.

?CUT THE TIES - BREAKING NEWS

Extinction Rebellion is at the Policy Exchange in Westminster.

This fake think tank poses as an educational charity.

Funded by companies with fossil fuel interests, its policies deny climate change and directly influence the UK to keep emissions high! 

? It also wrote the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act 2022 that made peaceful protest imprisonable, allowing the jailing of the #WholeTruthFive and other brave activists.

✍? Take digital action from home today - let’s demand an end to the charitable status of the Policy Exchange! Details here:

STOP JAILING TRUTH-TELLERS!

Five friends from our movement have been jailed for 4-5 years each and Amy Pritchard is still serving her 10-month prison sentence for taking action against J P Morgan with XR UK.

It’s time we show up for them on the streets and tell the courts and legislators: We will not be intimidated. You can jail the messenger but you can't jail the message!

? Saturday 3rd August
? 12-2pm
??‍♂️ Gandhi Statue in Parliament Square:

? Event link:
https://xrb.link/B5QaM3A172

This will be a peaceful, family-friendly rally collaboratively organised by Extinction Rebellion, Defend Our Juries, Just Stop Oil and Fossil Free London.

Bring signs saying:
• You can’t lock up the truth
• Free the Whole Truth Five
• Stop jailing truth-tellers
