Dear rebel,
Last night we blockaded News Corp’s print presses. The Sun, The Times, the Daily Telegraph, the Daily Mail and the Evening Standard will not be on shelves today.
Today is our chance to take a stand against the crooked billionaire press. We need to put our message on the empty shelves - print off this flyer and get down to your local newsagent's!
Here's the plan:
1. Print off this flyer.
2. Visit your local newsagent and put the flyers on the empty shelves.
3. Take a photo and share it on social media with #FreeTheTruth #StandTogether.
4. Stand outside your local newsagent and tell potential buyers why some papers are missing today.
You can use or adapt this text for your online post:
“Five crooks own the media. Today, we shut one of them down!
The Sun and The Times will not be on shelves today. Instead, XR
will be telling the truth about the climate and ecological emergency.”
#FreeTheTruth”
We’ve done this because this country’s news establishment is fucked. It’s controlled by ‘climate sceptics’ who consistently downplay the existential threat that is the ecological emergency.
By misleading tens of millions of people about the growing dangers that we face - while exerting unaccountable control over our government - these establishments are undermining our democracy.
They want us divided. Let's stand together.
It’s time to free the truth.
Love and rage,
XR UK
