ASTRAZENECA & FORTRESS DEMOS IN LONDON

Friday, 4th June

London activists met at Green Park before moving off to AstraZeneca's UK HQ at Stanhope Gate. As we arrived there AZ security were already looking out for us and got on their radios and all the blinds were already down on their office windows. But you can not hide away from your moral responsibilities and the animal torture YOU pay for at HLS and at your own labs AZ. You're a disgusting company. Animal torturing-human killing-drug side effecting-tax evading-over charging-suspressing data-corrupt-greedy company AZ! And you can bet on it that we're not going away until you dump HLS for good.

Next, we moved onto Fortress Invetsment Group at 5 Savile Row. The blood money lenders that keep HLS afloat to kill 500 animals every day! We were loud and got our point across to the many passers by that took our leaflets outside Fortress on this busy street, who were attracted by the chanting on the demo. You're the number one reason HLS are still killing these beautiful, innocent creatures and we will not let you get away with it - drop our loan to HLS!

After a quite break and a journey into the city centre, we went and protested outside of Noruma at 1 St Martin Le Grand. Noruma are a 15% stakeholder in Fortress and even share some directors with Fortress. So there are just as responsible for the pain, suffering and murder inside HLS. Without their financial support over 600,000 animals would not have died as HLS have little if any financial options left to them which is why we will never stop our attention of the financial collaborators which fund this evil. Noruma, you are a shameful, unethical company and we call upon you to do the right thing and either drop your stake holding and Fortress directors or pull out of HLS, we will be back.

Until all are free we will continue to fight against the injustices and barbaric cruelty of greedy companies like yours.
