Darling in the Dock over RBS!

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of attending People & Planet's Summer Gathering. It's an annual week-long training event for student activists with a bunch of inspiring and empowering workshops, great vegan food (that's high praise coming from a meat-eater) and fantastic company. I'm gong to be helping out with P&P's Corporate Power campaign in the coming year, so it was great to see so much enthusiasm for challenging corporations' influence on education.

Anyway, whilst we were there, P&P (along with Platform and WDM) treated the world to an massively exciting announcement. They are actually attempting to sue the Treasury over the RBS bailout!

People & Planet are also asking us to help put pressure on Alistair Darling to manage our investment ethically.

I'll keep you posted on this unprecedented legal challenge. Who knows, if it comes off, we could even remove RBS/NatWest from the Big 8.
