Report of Hands Off George Square! Meeting

On Tuesday night Glasgow Defence Campaign supporters met to discuss ways to take our work in defence of George Square forward. So far we have produced articles highlighting council plans to commercialise the Square, held street stalls, postered public areas, organised a banner drop, contacted politicians and public figures and led organising meetings to generate larger opposition.

The meeting was well attended and produced concrete plans for more action in the near future. These include sending letters to the Herald newspaper on Thursday 15 November, the day that the design competition is legally meant to conclude, and an information street stall on Saturday 24 November, 1-3pm, outside Sports Direct on Argyle Street. On and around these dates supporters will be working to publicise our RIP George Square Protest, Saturday 1 December, 1pm assembly, Donald Dewar statue, Buchanan Street, City Centre.
