GEORGE WEEK OF ACTION: Monday 4th September - Saturday 9th September

 

Kidnapped... Imprisoned... Blinded... Killed by Oxford University

 

Most people are probably aware of the sad life of George and the terrible

abuse he was forced to endure at the hands of Oxford University

vivisectors. George was almost certainly kidnapped from the wild. He could

have come from a number of different countries; perhaps it was from the

tundra of Tanzania or it could have been the sugar plantations of

Mauritius or in the jungles of Indonesia and China. The truth is however,

George never got to see that homeland again. Instead, he ended up inside

the laboratories of Oxford University where he was to die after years of

abuse by a university vivisector.

 

The information about George comes from the Oxford University professor

who was responsible for the abuse. Interestingly, the same professor was

investigated by the police in 2004 for cruelty to a monkey he was

experimenting on. Of course no charges were brought against the man who

has worked at Oxford University for the past 30 years.

The vivisector concerned related the information about George to an

assembled group he was talking to. He told his audience that they had

named the monkey 'George', and then went on to detail the types of

injuries he had personally inflicted on this poor innocent creature. At

one point George's eyes had extensive injuries caused to them, creating

lesions for the purpose of the experiment. The account told by the

vivisector is even more obscene when one takes into account that the

vivisector then started to laugh as he went on with his story, telling the

assembled group that after having blinded George, part of the experiment

then included taking George out into the University Park.

 

The week of action will extend from Monday the 4th September through to

Saturday 9th September. No matter where you are in the country or even the

world you can take part in this important week of action against the

animal abusers working inside Oxford University. The week of action will

culminate in a mass leafleting session on Saturday 9th September in the

centre of Oxford in order to inform the Oxford public of the atrocities

taking place inside the university and to inform people as to exactly how

their taxpayer’s money is being spent.

 

Over the next 2 weeks we will be posting information that will allow you

to organise your own events in whatever area you might live, including

information for our International supporters. However, if you are able,

please also come to Oxford on Saturday 9th September in order to leaflet,

so that the truth about the horrors inflicted on George and thousands of

other animals like George can be told.

 

Remember, Oxford University and their friends in the Government don’t want

the public to know the truth and they have tried to silence the anti

vivisection message. It’s vital that we get that message out to the

public. The truth is what the vivisectors fear, so let’s expose the

vivisectors of Oxford University and let’s not forgot the suffering of

George and millions like him.

Over the next few months SPEAK will be intensifying the campaign against

Oxford University and its plans to build a new animal research laboratory.

The coming months promise to be an exciting time for the campaign to stop

the new lab. If Oxford University believed that just because they have

started work again on the lab, the campaign would stop, then they will be

disappointed. At SPEAK we are determined to make the Oxford Lab unworkable

in every conceivable way.

 

More information about the George Week of Action will be sent to you

shortly as well as details about future events planned by SPEAK.
