Join us on Monday 17th February to stand in solidarity with Dietrich Wagner, the pensioner blinded by a water cannon in Germany. Dietrich will share his story and explain the dangers that water cannon pose to our democracy.
We’ll be meeting outside London City Hall at 5.45pm before the official public meeting to hear from Dietrich as well as Steve Reid from No to Water Cannon, Jenny Jones, Green Party London Assembly Member and Susan Matthews from Defend the Right to Protest.
At 6.20 Dietrich will then enter the public meeting to warn the Greater London Authority about the dangers they present. The meeting is open to the public but they’ve asked that people register by emailing watercannonengagement@mopac.london.gov.uk They’ve said there’ll be limited spaces so not everyone might be able to get in.
DTRTP will be following up with a briefing on Monday 24th Feb, 6.30, central London - try and come along! https://www.facebook.com/events/1393834694212815/
