200 people gathered outside the offices of BP in Melbourne Central on Friday 21 Feb to protest the war on Iraq. They then marched through rain to the offices of Esso at Southbank
Welcome rain had been falling all day, which probably reduced numbers turning up to a rally and march organised by the Anti-war Action Collective. The rally at Melbourne Central was outside the offices of BP - British Petroleum. About 200 people gathered and listened to speakers on the real reason for the war on Iraq - control of the second largest oil reserves in the world, and the destabilisation of OPEC.
