Since the draconian measures were taken police and army gunfire has killed six and injured hundreds more. In addition, scores of people have been arrested and have vanished. The people there are showing that they have drawn the line when it comes to the most vital public service. Any assistance we can give them will be willingly given, and we call on all Aucklanders to join with this solidarity action.
Wide support is anticipated from churches, unions, human rights and peace groups.
