Hello!

We are a group rebels who were arrested near Oxford Circus the day the police were removing the pink boat. Although this happened in April, we just had our trial the first week of October. 

Three of us were fortunate enough to be acquitted on lack of evidence. The remaining four continued our plea of 'not guilty' on the grounds of 'right to protest' and 'necessity to act'. They were found guilty of willful obstruction of police in the execution of their duty. 

The monetary costs resulting from this are £250 per person in court fees. We are hoping to crowdfund this money as we know there are many rebels out there that are looking to support arrestees. Lessening our financial stress will allow us to put our energy into further efforts for our planet. 

From the bottom of our hearts, and on behalf of the planet --- Thank you for your support.
