Stop the Database State

At Manchester No2ID's latest monthly street stall, local campaigners against the Database State unveiled a new, secret weapon called the Mop Handle of Liberty.

This extensible plastic mop handle has been specially commissioned to add a new dimension to Manchester No2ID's campaigning - a vertical one! St. Ann's square is often busy, and the No2ID stall is frequently surrounded by people eager to learn more about the Database State and sign No2ID's petition. This means that our long-serving, well-worn No2ID banner can be obscured from view.

Manchester NO2ID will be running a public information stall in St. Ann's Square in Manchester City Centre (down near the big Marks and Spencer), to raise awareness among the public and engage people in discussion about the National Identity Register. We'll be collecting signatures for the NO2ID petition to keep people in touch with the campaign.

The Home Office is trying to trick people into being Guinea Pigs for the ID Card Con. Many people have fallen for spin that the National Identity Scheme has been cancelled, that it isn't a threat or is voluntary. It's more important than ever to get the word out about the Database State.

We'll meet in the square itself at 2pm to set up shop; feel free to join us to lend a hand or just chat. You don't need any experience or equipment, just a bit of time to spare and a friendly smile!
