Michael-K

Thousands of Leeds students took part in a peaceful but heavily policed lunchtime protest against rising tuition fees and education cuts.

In April 2008 I joined the protests against the G20 summit in London. I was part of the crowd that was kettled in Threadneedle Street.

The last time I saw animal ights campaigner Mel Broughton protesting the Oxford Animal Lab as part of the SPEAK campaign was at the Martyr’s Memorial in July 2007.

Animal rights gropup SPEAK had a large march through the city centre on 28th October 2006. It was ell attended and passed off peacefully.

On 25th February 2006 the stakes in SPEAK‘s campaign against the building of the new Oxford Animal Lab were raised.

This was the second SPEAK protest in Oxford city centre that I documented. A small gathering of people assembled to highlight their feelings that funding given to Oxford University by Vodaphone could help to fund the animal lab.
