Supporters of the Hands Off Venezuela Campaign in Edinburgh held a stall at the two day long Societies’ Fair at Edinburgh University.

The comrades were hoping to highlight the gains of the Venezuelan revolution and to draw attention to recent events in Bolivia as well as to restart the lapsed HOV society at the university.

Over the two days 42 names were collected, 13 HOV magazines were sold as well as other HOV merchandise including posters. HOV supporters in Edinburgh are hoping to capitalise on the enthusiasm of many students by holding a follow up meeting on Venezuela and Bolivia. We hope to see everyone at what promises to be an exciting meeting where we can hopefully collect enough names to restart the society and begin to organise the campaign in Edinburgh.

At the crucial stage in the Bolivian and Bolivarian revolutions international solidarity is vital, and HOV supporters in Edinburgh hope to do their part, starting with this meeting! So if you are interested in supporting the Venezuelan and Bolivian revolutions contact us and get involved!
