Oxfam Youth Board member gets in the papers...

Our very own Oxfam Youth Board and Change member, David Taylor, has made the papers today with a letter responding to the Independent's labelling of Oxfam as a 'right wing NGO' in an article about the Make Poverty History campaign. The article also accused Oxfam of offering 'free-trade solutions to Third World poverty'. Good ol' David says it is an insult to the 'commitment and passion of Oxfam's staff and activists'. Read his letter here, and click here for more information on Oxfam's Make Trade Fair campaign. And, if you're feeling really passionate, get yourself down to London for the trade justice mass lobby on parliament.
