What the Climate Camp is and Why you might like to attend.

When the history of the early 21st century radicalism is written, special attention will be given to the Camp for Climate Action. One reason for this is obvious. In age of tokenism and denial, it will be credited for articulating in a clear voice the concerns of the majority of the population. [1]

Special Offerings at the Fair

Kitchen Compost Pail and Biobag give-a-way.
For Residents of Shoreline Only:

Made from 50% recycled plastic, this kitchen compost pail is handy, portable and perfect for short term storage of food scraps for your backyard compost bin or food scrap/yard waste cart. With its wide opening it is easy to clean off dishes directly into the container. For your convenience, the pail may be placed on the kitchen countertop or hung inside a cupboard door. It also works well to line the pail with a compostable kitchen bag to easily dispose of food scraps.

Save your food scraps without making a mess. These 3-gallon bags are 100% compostable and designed to fit most kitchen compost containers. Made from corn-based materials, the bags breathe naturally to allow heat and moisture to escape without leaking. Try storing fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator to keep foods “fresher” longer, then use the same bag to line your food scraps pail. Five bags in each sample bag.

Re-Cycled Commodities Sale

Room Nine Community School (RNCS), in conjunction with Shoreline SolarFest, is holding a Re-Cycled Commodities Sale on July 19 at the Fair site.

"Fuck the War Coalition" action in London

According to a statement posted on UK Indymedia (copied below), a Fuck the War Coalition action similar to those seen in Edinburgh has taken place in London. The target was Aegis, a mercenary operation run by Tim Spicer. He has reportedly been trying to have Craig Murray's new book suppressed before publication. (Though how you can defame a man who makes money out of killing people is an interesting question.)

ELEVEN GLASGOW LABOUR COUNCILLORS UNDER INVESTIGATION

Eleven Labour Glasgow City Councillors, including Councillor George Ryan, who suddenly pulled out of the contest to represent Labour in the crucial Glasgow East by-election, were reported to the Standards on 18 June 2008 in connection with a controversial land deal in the city centre.

The complaint surrounded their conduct in relation to the controversial attempt to close down the 150 year old Paddy’s Market in the city and obtain land on which the market is currently located.

The complaint which was submitted to the Standards Commission of Scotland by a representative of Paddy’s Market traders claimed that Councillor Ryan misled the council in a report he presented to the council’s Executive Committee which recommended the council purchase the head lease of the land where the market is situated and for the historic Paddy’s Market to be closed down.

The report which was presented by Councillor Ryan at a meeting on 20 March 2008, and subsequently led to the council’s endorsement of its recommendations, stated that the owners of the land had agreed to provide the lease at a reduced rate to the Council. However, the forty page complaint document submitted to the Standards Commission included information that clearly indicated that no such deal had been made with the council.

Councillor Ryan also faces investigation for other breaches of the Code of Conduct in relation to this matter along with ten other high profile Glasgow City Council Labour councillors including the Council leader, Steven Purcell.

Paddy’s Market representative, Brian Daly said:
“This market has been here for over 150 years, and my family has been trading here for three generations. The Labour councillors who are intent on closing us down have failed in their responsibilities as elected members to engage with us at any time in relation to this. They have, instead, chosen to make backroom decisions and bulldozer them through without any regard for the democratic process.
