Call for support of Leonardo activists

EDINBURGH SHERIFF COURT – THURSDAY 16 APRIL from 9am

🚨COURT SUPPORT IN EDINBURGH🚨

👉 Leonardo 5 – Trial

📆 Thursday 16th April 2026 (Day 1, day 2 not yet scheduled)

📍Edinburgh Sheriff Court & Justice of the Peace Court, 27 Chambers Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1LB

🕣 From 9AM

Please support these 5 SPSC members who, from early morning on 10th December 2024, blockaded Leonardo arms factory in Edinburgh with vehicles, disrupting production for 8 hours.

After arrest, they were treated disgracefully at Livingston and Dunfermline stations, released at 10.00pm without coats in sub-zero temperatures, (confiscated) to make their way home to the Borders without breaking their bail conditions of not entering Edinburgh.

*Two are very bravely self-repping* to ensure they can have their say in court.

❗️PLEASE LET FRIENDS KNOW AND GET A GREAT TURN OUT FOR THESE BRAVE ACTIVISTS BOTH OUTSIDE AND INSIDE THE COURT❗️
