EF! Corporate Tea Party

South Downs EF!ers targeted one of the worlds biggest multinationals and visited Mark Moody-Stuart, a managing director of Shell, at his home in Sussex. The activists occupied the roof decorating it with banners reading "Murderers" and "Earth First!". Surprisingly they were hosted by the director's wife who served everyone tea - how pleasant.

The action was highlighting the Davos meeting in Switzerland of a 1000 corporations who were cementing their plans to maximise their global power and profit, particularly through the new MAI (Multilateral Agreement on Investment) initiative.

Simultaneous actions took place around the globe in Colombia, Germany, Haiti, Ireland, Italy, Mexico, South Korea, Spain and the USA. Nearly 200 organisations from 54 countries, with a combined membership of 20 million, have released the Declaration against the Globalisers of Misery, which rejects the destructive nature of globalised corporate power and practises.
