LIVE 8 concerts a triumph as world looks to G8 for results
Ahead of the Gleneagles summit, which begins on Wednesday, campaigners have told world leaders that they must act to end the 'unjust absurdity of extreme poverty' in Africa. Led by Sir Bob Geldof, a plethora of pop stars, church leaders and politicians have called for action on trade, aid and debt. Their hopes to influence the leaders of the G8 are grounded on the extraordinary groundswell of popular unity generated by the weekend's Live8 concerts. 200,000 people watched the concert in Hyde Park this weekend. They were joined by hundreds of thousands of people attending other Live8 concerts in cities across the globe. Approximately 200,000 strong marched through Edinburgh in a mass rally calling for debt relief and increased aid.
