What an amazing turnout for Banners on the Beach!<\/p>\n

Little more than two weeks ago we put a call out for a mobilisation on the beach to support the Oil Free Seas flotilla<\/a>.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not much lead in time but on Saturday we saw over 5000 people on more than 45 beaches get out and get loud!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

There were haka<\/a> and there were chants of 1 2 3 4 Anadarko Out the Door, there was laughter and there were banners. Lots of banners with lots of different slogans.
\nBut there was one clear message: Deep Sea Drilling is not welcome in NZ waters.<\/p>\n

Below is a collection of photos of the people by the people, and you can shoot over to facebook<\/a> and tag yourself or your mates. (If you\u2019ve got photos to add please email them to \"\"
