Seven Norwegian anti racists will not be having a very merry Christmas this year.
The Norwegian Government accuse them of fraud and are putting them on trial in the New Year.
These committed campaigners are prominent members of the SOS Racisme organisation.
It campaigns against racial hatred in Norway, especially attacks on migrant workers and refugees.
The funds it received from Norwegian state bodies were perfectly above board and legitimate.
The truth is that the real reason for the prosecution is that the accused are members of Tjen Folket (Serve the People), a militant left wing organisation which the Norwegian Government wants to stamp out.
The falsely accused are Kjell Gunnar Larsen, Trond Thorbjørnsen,, Henrik Ormasen, Kenneth.Fuglemsmo , Jan Erik Skretteberg, Bjarne Stokke and Anne Elizabeth Hansen.
They are accused of embezzling a total of 16.8 million Kroner and if found guilty could face up to nine years in prison.
At 18.00 on Thursday, 3rd. December the lights on the annual Norwegian Christmas Tree in Trafalgar Square, London will be switched on.
Present at the ceremony will be the Norwegian Ambassador, Mayor of Oslo and Mayor of Westminster.
Supporters in Britain of the Norwegian Seven will be demonstrating in the Square.
The opening ceremony is at 18.00 this year.
We need to be ready for 17.30, assembling at 17.15.
