Upcoming Event Details

Street Stall, February 2009
Start: 14 Feb 2009 - 2:00pm
End: 14 Feb 2009 - 4:00pm
Timezone: Etc/GMT+1

We'll be running a Saturday afternoon stall in St. Ann's Square to raise awareness among the public and engage people in discussion about the National Identity Register. We'll be collecting signatures for the NO2ID petition to keep people in touch with the campaign.

We'll meet in the square itself at 2pm to set up shop; feel free to join us to lend a hand or just chat. You don't need any experience or equipment, just a bit of time to spare and a friendly smile!

Monthly Meeting, February 2009
Start: 18 Feb 2009 - 7:00pm
End: 18 Feb 2009 - 9:00pm
Timezone: Etc/GMT+1

Manchester NO2ID will be holding our monthly meeting in the Town Hall Tavern, Tib Lane, Manchester. Sadly, this venue is not wheelchair-accessible; please contact us if you have accessibility needs.

At our monthly meetings we discuss the state of the NO2ID campaign, what we've been up to recently and where we're going in future. Everyone is welcome, newcomer or not, curious or committed. See minutes of our previous meetings.

The Town Hall Tavern serves reasonably-priced, good quality food until 9pm so you don't need to pop home for tea - you can even order your meal brought up to the function room.

Convention on Modern Liberty in Manchester
Start: 28 Feb 2009 - 9:00am
End: 28 Feb 2009 - 7:00pm
Timezone: Etc/GMT+1

The Convention on Modern Liberty is a call to all concerned with attacks on our fundamental rights and freedoms under pressure from counter-terrorism, financial breakdown and the database state.

Manchester NO2ID is organising a breakout convention alongside the main event in London, featuring live video feeds of the keynote speeches and panel sessions, during which the Manchester audience will be able to relay questions directly to London for the panels. There will also be two sets of discussion sessions covering different aspects of civil liberties in which our guests are encouraged to participate.

Our breakout Convention takes place at Manchester University Student's Union (tbc), Oxford Road, Manchester on Saturday 28th February from 9am to 7pm. For more information, watch this space or contact Manchester NO2ID.

I'll be going to the convention on the 28th so hopefully will see a few of you down there and possibly grip a beer or something. :)

There are also other local groups all over the UK if anyone else is interested in check them out...
