Meet at 12pm Connolly Station - Assemble at 1pm at the Grand Hotel Malahide

The World Bank is coming to Dublin on Monday November 12th and Tuesday November 13th - delegates will stay at the Grand Hotel Malahide. This is also where they will meet and discuss new strategies for the privatisation of "development".

They claim to be working for a world free of poverty yet...

-The World Bank keeps millions in poverty through crippling debt structures, unfair trade rules, enforced privatisation and public service cutbacks.

-The World Bank is a tool of destructive global capitalism. It funds environmentally devastating projects.

-The same neo-liberal ideology that fuels the World Bank - profit for the few over the lives of the many - is destroying communities here in Ireland.

We* think this is a perfect opportunity to have a bit of a party. So we've gathered up some buckets and spades, we're making some salad sandwiches and we've invited all our friends. So join us out in Malahide on Monday 12th of November. All ages welcome.
