What
were you doing a decade ago? I was dressed as an international banker,
dragging a gang of sackcloth-wearing slaves through the streets of
Birmingham, occasionally stopping to whip them and demand my money
back. Not for fun, you understand (though it was, rather – apart from
the fact that my bowler hat itched and my moustache was melting in the
sunshine.) We were doing it because the G8 leaders were meeting there,
and we were part of the Jubilee 2000 campaign to cancel ‘third world’
debt.
