| + | ==Vigil at the Anniversary of Afghan "Liberation", Fri 13th November, 7 pm, opposite the Forum== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Bring the Troops Home day Friday 13th November - the anniversary of the so-called liberation of Afghanistan. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The shambles over the fraudulent election, the increased death toll and now even establishment voices | ||
| + | recognising the war is pointless, all strengthen our demand to bring the troops home. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The opinion of the British people is moving strongly against the war with 73% wanting troops out now or | ||
| + | within a year, up from 62% in October (Channel 4 News poll). | ||
| + | |||
| + | Please help us to keep up the pressure by joining our action on Friday 13th. | ||
