Report on Climate Camp in the City

Posted By admin on April 18, 2009

The Climate Camp legal team have now released a report, “Demonstrating Respect for Rights?”, on the policing of the Climate Camp in the City on 1 April 2009.

The report looks at the “policing of the Camp for Climate Action’s Camp in the City in the context of the Joint Parliamentary Committee on Human Rights report on the policing of protest called ‘Demonstrating respect for rights? A human rights approach to protest’, published on 23 March 2009, just over a week before the G20 protests on 1 April 2009.”

It is available as a .pdf file from the Climate Camp website here.

There is also an accompanying video…

Welcome to TawNews!

"TaW" = "Tilting at Windmills" so "TawNews" represents the newsy-type area of TaW. To explain...

Having become thoroughly disgusted by the bias, spin, and blatant non-reporting of certain types of events on the part of the mainstream media we find ourselves having much greater confidence in the independent, alternative, and "citizen journalist" news sources.
TawNews is our effort toward promoting those sources through links, dynamic feeds, and the occasional reproduction of selected content.
As our own contribution, in some small measure, we also periodically post reportage of our own.
That said, we freely admit to having our own bias... in a direction markedly different to that of the mainstream media!

[P.S. "We", in all instances, is "fotdmike" and a small select bunch of friends!]
