[Activists protest outside the DSEI London arms fair, 2017.]
Together weve driven the arms trade out of cities across the UK and beyond. Will you help make 2019 DSEI protests even bigger?  ([link removed]

Dear friend,

IN JUST TWO MONTHS, ONE OF THE WORLD'S BIGGEST ARMS FAIRS WILL SET UP SHOP IN LONDON.

In 2017, rolling creative actions and blockades disrupted the set up of the arms fair, forcing the arms trade into the public eye. Will you help make 2019 even bigger? ([link removed]

Together, we can shut them down. 

The DPRTE arms fair has now been forced out of three cities under pressure from protests: Bristol, Cardiff, and Birmingham. The 2008 Asia-Pacific Defence and Security Exhibition was cancelled due to “the cost of security”. In 2019 Glasgow City Council promised it would never host another arms fair again. We know we can stop them.

Join the Stop DSEI Week of Action 2-8 September ([link removed]

Whether you can drop by for the day, a few hours, or the whole week; whether you're keen to hold a banner, organise a creative direct action, or make cups of tea for other activists, you can help stop DSEI. 

Each day is themed with a different issue that intersects with the arms trade. Put the dates in your diary, and drop us a line to get involved in supporting a working group on any of the following days:

* Monday 2nd September: Stop Arming Israel
* Tuesday 3rd September: No Faith in War
* Wednesday 4th September: No Nuclear
* Thursday 5th September: Conference at the Gates
* Friday 6th September: Climate Justice
* Saturday 7th September: Festival of Resistance - Local Democracy and International Solidarity 
* Sunday 8th September: Borders & Migration

If you want to support a day of action, or you'd like to be part of organising but you're not sure how yet, get in touch. We'll let you know how to get involved. ([link removed]  

See you on the streets.
