Real World Day, as rescheduled after the cops had made sure peoples ' voices could not be heard in Dover , was a blindi ng success and proves yet again that innovation is the way fo rward . Working from the premise that there is no reason why a demo has to take place on the day or at the time advertised, three days of demos took place , most of them starting at Sam! On Real World Day itself two groups of act ivists covered the Cambridgeshir e area with the two demos dovetail ing into each other at the evil lnterfauna who breed beagles fo r vivisection.

•

all managed to shake off ou r later for our last demo that ina be the first of the day , Babraham Institute . an evil lab this is with torture equipment vis f or all to see.

wL

You canno t stop us , you w ill never brea k us ! We are always one step ahead of you. It is for the animals, so who cares what you throw at us?

Remember, all we do is just fight harder !

Team 2 started off at the Babraham Institute, High street, Babraham but with security in evidence we quickly left and moved on to Laundry Farm , Bar ton Road , Cambridge . This place holds dogs and othe r animals for Cambr idge University . Activists looked through windows and made lots of noise leav ing them in no doubt that we will be back .

Activists then moved on to Cambridge University vet school experimenta l farm 307 Huntingdon Road, Camb ridge and then lnterfauna , Abbotts Ripton road , Huntingdon . This company supplies Huntingdon Life Sciences with beagles and rabbits for them to torture and murder day after day.

We arrived and joined up with lots more activists already there and carried on the loud demo.

The noise was really loud and relentless with activists on all sides shouting and banging on drums . A large group of activists got a little wea ry and decided to t ake the weigh t off their feet and have a sit down ................ in the middle of the road and the result was Ripton Road did not have any traffic flowing in any direction for almost an hour!!! All good stuff! The police called for reinforcements. Lots more cops arrived including a hel icopter full of them. Not quite what their inspector expected and just as his boys started to get ready to move us on we got up, walked to our cars and onto our next target. We expected the po lice to tail us so we all went in seperate directions and met up later and yes all except one car was followed! We

KEY HUNTINGDON TARGETS HIT IN THE U.S. Bio 2005 - Days of Action Bio2005 - the Biotechnology Industry Organization 's annual conference was held this year in Philadelphia over the past weekend. Naturally , Philadelphia Area and East Coast Area anti-HLS activists could not let the conference pass without making our mark and making it clear: deal with HLS, deal with us.

Saturday June 18 The Bio2005 weekend began with approximately 120 people gathered in Philadelphia to attend Hugs for Puppies ' Anti-Vivisection Congress. Speakers Jerry Vlasak, Kevin Jonas, Andy Stepanian, Michelle Rokke, Anthony Nocella, and Lawrence Carter-Long discus sed the unscientific nature of animal research, ways to investigate laboratories, camp aigns against the vivisection industry , and direct action for animal liberation.

'

Meanwhile, back in downtow n Philadelphia, about 15 anti-HLS activists gathered at the Bio2005 Welcome Reception to make clear to all Biotech attendees that HLS is not life, not science, and that any company who works with the lab will be getting some attention from SHAC. Large banners greeted attendees and media video cameras, and one news sto ry of the event quoted an activist on why HLS was being targeted.

showing them to other attendees. Some became outraged , yelling about animal rights terrorism, while others noted that their company would never do business with HLS due to their "reputation. " Attendees from dozens of countries and across the U.S. learned about HLS and the economic risks linked to doing business with the lab.

About 15 activists gathered around noon in Trenton , New Jersey to

-i,,,__,_

In addition to rais ing awareness and enthusias m for working against vivisection, the event raised money fo r the group and raised $900 for the SHAC-7 legal defense fund. A few activists also visited the Bio Democracy Conference in order to distribute hundreds of booklets to activists of other causes who were in town for the BioTech conference.

Sunday , June 19 The action kicked off on Sunday , June 19, when close to 100 activists from all parts of the country , flanked by approximately 45 bike cops , cops, feds, civil affairs reps, and undercovers , gathered in downtown Philadelphia to protest against GlaxoSmithKline requesting that they stop working with HLS. Hundreds of flyers about GSK were handed out to curious passersby. The thunderous cries of "Puppy Killers - Leave Town!" echoed off the walls!

Monday, Ju ne 20 As Bio2005 opened its doors, two well-dressed activists stood by the entrance f lyering attendees with special color postcards made just for the occasion. The cards showed pictu res of demonstrations against HLS collaborato rs, listed examples of other such actions and an explanation, and noted that the only way for any company to avoid being targeted was to not work with HLS. Some 600 cards were given out, and many executives stood reading them, clearly curious and interested, before tucking them into pockets or

rally outside of the federal courthouse in suppo rt of the SHAC-7. Several media cameras filmed the rally, and one activ ist was interviewed

by WCBS, the largest news radio program in New York City and su rround ing areas , to discuss the case and the governmental assault on free speech.

security guards paced back and forth instructing employees to leave through other exists (or escorting them past the "dangerous " protestors}.

Other gates and exits in the complex were closed and color cards about what happens to HLS supporters were distributed . The local newspaper came

to take photographs and learn about how Roche is supporting the torture of puppies and other animals. A good time was had by all!

Tuesday, June 21 The final day of the conference began with a lunchtime demonstration at GlaxoSmithKline headquarters in Philadelphia. Employees were berated as puppy-killers, color cards describing what happens to the reputations of HLS supporters were distributed , and leaflets about GSK were handed out to passersby. Bullhorns blared through windows and entrances , and a good time was had by all- except Glaxo that is!

Activists then headed for two companies associated with GSK. The f irst

was Eisenhower Fellowships. A loud demo was held mere feet from the company's windows.

E.F. heads peeked out of windows, and literally dozens of neighbors stood on the street watching what was going on. Activists challenged Eisenhower execs to come out and explain to the neighbors and

neighboring business people why they kept GSK CEO J.P. Garnier on the board of directors, but no one came out. Looks like your reputation in the neighborhood is going downhill, Eisenhower! Time to remove J.P. from your board ...

Next stop was Quaker BioVentures, which seats GSK VP and Director of Research Tadataka Yamada on their Board of Directors. Several activ ists gained entrance to their seventh floor office and walked around cubicles , throwing flyers and shouting for Quaker to stop supporting animal abuse . A very loud demo followed on the front steps of the office building , with building security and Quaker execs standing around angr ily as bullhorns and chants echoed through the lobby and all along the building. I'm sure the other clients and tenants in the building weren 't happy

either!

Activists then headed for the parking garage of GSK to greet workers as they walked in at the

end of a hard work day. Scores of the color cards about HLS-related demonstrations were given out to employees, and chants and graphic signs met all GSK employees . A half-dozen security guards ringed the area and one side of the parking garage was closed down. GSK employees are learning about the campaign to close HLS, and learning that unless their company take a stand against working with HLS, GSK will be targetted continually.

To cap off the weekend , about 30 activists assembled in line on the steps of the Philadelphia Art Museum , site of the Bio2005 Gala Reception . Attendees entering the reception looked down to see the angry protesters with their signs about HLS, and listened to chants of "fo r t he an imals we will fight " and " HLS, shut them down. " Many stopped to watch or pointed fingers . The point was further driven home to biotech employees from across the world - deal w ith HLS, and you 've got trouble on your hands!

Local activists would like to thank all of those w._hoattended - anti -HLS activ~sts from Chicago , Boston, Ohio, Maryland, New York , New Jersey, / Delawa re, and other states all took part in the , days of action to send il a fear message to thEl _Bio-/ Tech co_mmunlty an~ to,GSK .

So on to the next target, HLS Couriers, DHL. This infamous company, who act as couriers for all players of the vivisection Industry in the UK, such a;; HLS, Newchurch GuiAea Pig Farm, Sequani Laboratories etc, were greeted by the activists descending on their ~remises.

Basra vivisezione! (Stop Vivisection!) was screamed loudly letting them know we were here and we were ready to disrupt their afternoon. All the cars were leafleted, as well as many drivers and workers curious as to why thElgroup of activists were on their door• step. Our presence had been acknowledged ahd we moved on to the next larget, GlaxoSmithkline.

We had the pleasure of visiting yet anotheJ disturbing multinational where, as usual, the workers were hiding In their offices. Leaflets were handed out to those leaving with many predrota~le

responses saying 'but we don't have animals here'. Nice try, but it is compan ies like Glaxo who are keeping hell holes like HLS open, where they do have animals and 500 of them are killed every day.

This was the second time GlaxSmith· Kline felt the heat in two days, as a group of 7 activists cong regated outside a Glaxo factory near Parma the day before. Once again the workers were leafleted and hundreds of commuters along the main road got to see the. banners and posters, making the tie between GlaxoSmithkline ai:ld animal l)buse.

On all the demos we told them in english and italian that this is a global campaign and that have no fear, they will give in and we will smash •HLS. There is no doubt that the vivisection industry will crumble, Basta viv isezione!

15 activists from the Dutch AR group Respect voor Dieren protested against Fisher Emergo, which is a part of Fisher Scientific.We were all wearing white lattered with red paint, symthe blood that has flown and co i ues to flow within HLS. Suits like these are sold by Fisher. Fisher Scientific earns money from supplying lab equipment and their Dutch site Fisher . Emergo is facing the consequences af this week after week with never ending ar,igry protests.

We named and shamed Fisher in this small town. Thousands of cars were passing by, looking at our banners, signs and hearing the megaphones and sirens. After listening to the tape with a beagle from HLS screaming in pain and fear, adrenalin pumped up and so did the noise of our megaphones. Straight in your face, the truth is here and cannot )le ignored. The Fisher employees were waiting in the hall to go home after the protest. At least they thought so. On.e big guy came out to check if "everything

was okay now." It wasn't because, we're not stupid! So a couple of us went back shouting at the Fisher employee. All he could do was to stare at his shoes. He tried to say something but nothing came out of his mouth. He ran back into the building, together with all the other cowards who are men enough to earn money from torture but not strong enough to face the consequences of their deeds.

At the same time a protester was waiting at the bus stop, apparently together with a Fisher employee. The employee chose to stand in the other end of the bus shelter , afraid of a conversation. What 's wrong with you people? Never seen the footage of what goes on inside HLS? Or the latest horror at Covance? Can't you see that the money you earn is made from the bload of others. Life is too short to make the lives of others shorter, when will you realize it?

Protests will continue. We've stood there in snow, rain and sun, And we're up for much more. WE WILL NEVER
