We enjoyed talking to people about Global Justice’s Food Sovereignty campaign. People were interested in our message and many of them signed postcards asking their MPs to end the UK’s support for the New Alliance and to support agroecology which enables small-scale farmers to build sustainable food systems and keep control of their livelihoods.
We joined members of 38 Degrees to raise awareness of this dodgy trade deal that would effect our public services, health care, environment and workers’ rights.
We were shocked to hear how an enormous agribusiness Kilombero Plantations (KPL), in Tanzania, supported with UK Aid money, is making life miserable for many of the local people. You can join us in emailing your MP at the following link to demand the UK ends its support for the corporate takeover of Africa’s food, and supports small-scale farmers instead: Email your MPl
We played Corporate Monopoly on our stall. It was a great success again and many people signed our campaign cards.
