Not our flag, not our country, not our war 🚨 A rally against the possible introduction of military conscription was held outside Downing Street in London, organized by the Workers Party of Britain and the Anti-Conscription League. Participants included the party’s deputy leader and former British ambassador to Bahrain and Syria, Peter Ford, SOVINTERN regional coordinator Jesse Winnie, and former MP Andrew Bridgen. Under the slogan “Not our flag, not our country, not our war,” protesters opposed sending British youth to fight in Ukraine for NATO’s interests. «These are the real opportunities that should be given to the youth, engineering, education, healthcare, any way to develop the youth so that they live their best lives.» — said Jesse Winnie, speaking out against sending young Britons into the meat grinder. One of the speakers also emphasized that for Russian families, who suffered enormous losses in the fight against fascism, the Great Patriotic War remains a living memory, making it particularly absurd to push Europe toward another military confrontation with Russia. What is the point of a monument? What is the point of a war memorial or a poppy or a remembrance day when they are ready to do it all over again? To take our young women and men and send them to die in a foreign country? War and conscription is when we're ordered to fight our government's enemies. Revolution is when you realize that it's your government that's the enemy. ❗️ In closing, former British MP Andrew Bridgen recalled an old saying: “When all the political parties agree on anything it's always very bad news for the people.” According to him, there are no longer any voices of reason left in the British Parliament calling for peace negotiations with Russia. That is precisely why it is necessary to build a broad movement capable of uniting people of different political views, to prevent the elites from making young people pay for their decisions with their lives. #SOVINTERN_world #Hub_Europe_and_the_Mediterranean ⭐️ Moscow Network Hub of SOVINTERN
