"Mr President, next week the G8 will descend on Fermanagh. Their list of crimes is a long one: Barack Obama, drone warrior in chief, prosecutor of heroic Bradley Manning; David Cameron, heir of Thatcher, destroyer of public services; Angela Merkel, imposer of austerity across Europe; Vladimir Putin, dictatorial jailer of Pussy Riot and many others. They are collectively responsible for war, austerity, environmental destruction and poverty, which affect billions of people across the world.
The local politicians who wish to roll out the red carpet cynically claim that this is an opportunity to showcase the so-called new Northern Ireland, but all they have to offer is a Potemkin village with fake shopfronts hiding the real economic hardship. It is the neoliberal policies which the G8 peddles which leave these areas plagued by unemployment and emigration. Massive police repression is planned, militarised zones, thousands of police officers and soldiers, water cannons and even drone spy planes approved by the policing board. People should reject this intimidation, protest in Belfast and Fermanagh."@en1
