Make Poverty History - update

Fra www.makepovertyhistory.org:

On the day his new cabinet meets for the first time, Tony Blair will receive demands from 2.5 million British people - to put the crisis of world poverty at the top of his agenda and lead the world to Make Poverty History.
Before the election Tony Blair said he would work night and day to make poverty history. Now millions of people want to ensure he keeps that promise as he prepares for the G8 in July.
Six African women, themselves supporters of the campaign, will be among those delivering thousands of letters and postcards to Downing Street.
More than 2.5 million people calling on the prime minister to act have all bought a white wristband as a symbol of their commitment.
Over 300,000 people have sent personal messages to Mr Blair by text, email or postcard. More than 45,000 have attended major campaign events in London - the Nelson Mandela rally and the trade justice vigil.
