Wood Group get the message after AGM protest

The Scottish Palestinian Solidarity Campaign (SPSC) protest held at the Wood Group AGM in Aberdeen was a huge success, with 40+ activists outside making plenty noise, and 4 shareholders inside putting questions to the board members. 

Fiona Napier, of SPSC Aberdeen said, "Wood Group have definitely got the message that if they continue to do business with apartheid Israel, they will be held to account.

 
"The day's events were filmed by Al Jazeera (as part of a documentary on Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions), and the event was reported in P&J, Morning Star and online."
See links below to some of the coverage (we'll let you know when the documentary is available).

She added, "We will just want to say a big thank you to everyone who supported the protest and made it such a success - either by endorsement, by helping organise, or by being there in person (especially those who travelled!).

"This is just the start of the campaign, so please continue your support."
