Wikileaks Spokesperson TBC
“There is a war being waged against journalism and whistle-blowers. The very cornerstone of a democracy is a free press, and we have seen how this fourth estate has capitulated to every whim of the neoliberal and imperialists’ agenda. And because of this, we require alternative media outlets, such as Wikileaks, to do the job that the mainstream aren’t doing, which is about exposing corporate and governmental malfeasance.”
Venue: Crypt on the Green, Clerkenwell Close, London EC1R 0EA, June 12, 7pm- 10pm (doors open, 6:15pm). Tickets are £10, available on the door or online at Eventbrite:
