Akenaton....please could you tell me where you got your information from, as I've just phoned Oxfam and told them what has been written here. They said that they are not discouraging people from going to Gleneagles at all. So...I'm a little mystified.

I don't want to go back to them again until I know your source. This will make it easier to sort out and hopefully I can come up with an answer for you. Meanwhile here is the part of their site that deals with the G8 Campaign.

Thanks
