NoBonus4RBS will fly and fly

There are currently 7771 members of the Facebook group “NoBonus4RBS“, started by Billy Bragg. Let’s watch it fly and fly. RATM wasn’t the first successful Facebook group-based campaign (see HSBC’s student overdraft charges, for instance). But I think it is a good model to emulate. As I said here about song-based campaigns, negative campaigns can [...]

Christian Aid’s emergency appeal in Haiti

Yesterday I posted a link and video to Oxfam’s appeal. I really want to emphasise how serious the situation is in Haiti and how important it is to help by donating money. So here’s another appeal from Christian Aid: http://www.christianaid.org.uk/emergencies/current/haiti-earthquake-appeal/ Alternatively, you can still donate to Oxfam.

Oxfam has long experience in Haiti, and we’re rushing in teams from around the region to respond where we’re needed most. Our response will include providing clean [...]
