The Brussels Balloon Job

[whipitup]

VTTV are arranging a timed demonstration in Brussels on July 10th.

2000 balloons will be popped in sequence at a time when MEP's will hear them.

Need as many people to go as possible.

SWOF and BBC camera crews will be there.

All info can  be found here:

Dave Dorn has put aside some Eurostar seat for people that cannot afford them and Jason of TW donated 5 grand tonight on VTTV.

Fantastic!

I only wish I could go....................

If only I had a valid `passport` I would go, there will be vapers from all over the EU, at the Brussels Parliament.

Watch the re-run peeps, i`ts brilliant.

Well done JASON (TW) & our RATFINK even though she will be on her `honeymoon` has donated £100, to help cover costs .

Bless you Ratfink, have a wonderful honeymoon, and loving marriage.

Everybody who can go should.
If you can't afford it but have the time, get signed up for the free ticket.

This is a fantastic effort being put in by others for you to protect your right to use e cigs.
People have donated time and money to fight our cause, please lend your support.

The more people we can have standing in Brussels that day the more seriously the media and politicians will have to take us.

I will be doing my upmost to get the day off work to get there. I will speak to them tomorrow.

[whipitup]

Unfortunately I cannot go, on holiday in the South of France (no, nothing that fancy) is would be a 1500 mile round trip in a tiny hire car.

That's even if I was allowed to "disappear" for 18 hours!

Going whether or not I can get on the Eurostar ... this has to be done . The efforts of DD and anyone associated are highly appreciated .  if having any trouble contacting  

use  [e-mail]   This will be the simplest way for them to process

[kibbster]

Unfortunately I can't go because of work commitments but best of luck to everyone that does and I'll be watching the news that night and give you a wave
Will be good to see some direct action and positive media coverage that the MEPs can't ignore.

There are still a few tickets left for the train, so its not too late to sign up. Come on guys.

[gibla53]

bump             [e-mail]        extra tickets added  25 further available .  If you are remotely tempted and have an up to date passport grab the chance.

[digicig]

Hopefully all will be sorted - tis just the gettin back - will either get stuck in London, Sheffield or Leeds - unless someones coming back up North on the 10th

I can't go as my passport has run out

However I know a bunch of people - one of which is my mother who are in Brussels that week and might be up to popping the odd balloon!

I just can't find the details. I've looked on VT but just gives the train info.

Where exactly is the Demo?

Everyone is to meet at the Rond-Point Schuman  at 12:30 local time    Some of the details are still to be finalised  eg balloon sequencing and these will get posted asap. 

Very inspiring episode of VTTV last night recommended watching  gives as much detail as anyone is aware of other than Dave Dorn ( who is co-ordinating the whole event)

[sooetie]

Thanks for the info Gibla.

I watched the VTTV and I really hope lots of people can go.

I hope my mum and her friends can make it and will give them full details.

Just wish I could go

[gibla53]

I think as they said this one is the first,  another protest probably before whole Parliament votes in September/October,  which is probably of vastly greater importance - see you then !!!!! Plenty of time to get passports renewed
