Brimar is a Manchester-based company which makes components which form a vital part of the Apache helicopters used by the Israeli military in Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon, by the US Marines in Iraq and by British and US militaries in Afghanistan.
The newly-formed Target Brimar campaign is calling a launch demonstration on Saturday October 17th, meeting at the Gardeners’ Arms roundabout in Moston, Manchester at noon. All are welcome, and please bring banners, placards, musical instruments… there will be vegan food and speakers from the Palestinian community and from the Edo Decommissioners, the activists who during the Israeli invasion of Gaza in January broke into a Brighton arms factory and damaged equipment there. There is transport available from Brighton/London, and a Critical Mass bike ride from Manchester city centre at 11am.
In addition to this launch demonstration, we are calling on people in Manchester and nationwide to take autonomous action and to carry out regular vigils, noise demonstrations and other protests in the vicinity of Brimar’s factory off the Greengate main road in Chadderton.
