Day 272 - 02 Jul 96 - Page 42
1 Q. Right. Do you ever remember any of those four people
2 disassociating themselves from any anti-McDonald's activity
3 or any anti-McDonald's leaflets saying that they wanted
4 nothing to do with it or that they would not answer letters
5 because they did not agree with it or anything like that?
6 A. No, not at all.
7
8 Q. Right.
9 A. They did answer letters. To the best of my memory, I
10 can remember all of them answering letters.
11
12 Q. I think we have dealt with number 10.
13 A. Mr. Bishop also helped with the stall on one occasion
14 as well.
15
16 Q. Where was that?
17 A. That was the one at the George Rowby pub.
18
19 Q. Okay. Do you remember Mr. Claire having any part in the
20 1990 fayre or volunteering for any part in the 1990 fayre?
21 A. As far as I can remember, he did volunteer to do, I
22 think it was the videos for the fayre, when it was being
23 discussed who would do what job there.
24
25 Q. Right.
26 A. He said he would do that, but in the end I do not
27 think he did. Well, I know he did not.
28
29 MR. MORRIS: Just the last few points. The organisation,
30 Veggies in Nottingham, you know them, do you?
31 A. Yes.
32
33 Q. We have a witness coming from them, so there is no need to
34 go into the detail of that but was London Greenpeace --
35 what contact did you have with Veggies while you were
36 involved with the anti-McDonald's campaign, while you were
37 coordinating/organising the anti-McDonald's campaign for
38 London Greenpeace?
39 A. Well, we were in correspondence with them, ringing
40 them up or writing to them. When I say "we", I mean I
41 was. With Patrick of Veggies in particular. And in
42 particular relating to the fact that they had got the legal
43 threat from McDonald's in, I think it was 1987, late '87.
44
45 Q. So you were aware of that, were you?
46 A. I was aware of that, of course, yes.
47
48 Q. Right. Did you see any of the correspondence involved with
49 that?
50 A. I do not think I saw correspondence but I may have
51 done, I cannot remember, but what the outcome of it was was
52 that they came to an agreement with McDonald's over their
53 fact sheet.
54
55 Q. Right. Is this the Veggies fact sheet?
56
57 MR. JUSTICE BELL: Well, we know, unless there is a dispute
58 about it.
59
60 MR. MORRIS: Okay, that is the Veggies fact sheet.
