Flag Up Scotland Jamaica Calls Press Conference

Flag Up Scotland Jamaica has called a press conference for tomorrow, 12th October, at 10.00 am at The Wild Olive Tree Cafe, 163 Buchanan Street, Glasgow, G1 2JX.  All are welcome to attend.  The press conference will be the official launch of our petition to the Scottish Parliament.  The petition calls upon the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to acknowledge that trade with Jamaica contributed significantly to the foundations of economic growth and prosperity in Scotland during the industrial revolution.  As a response to this, the petition also wants the Scottish Government to recognise a moral obligation to advance the prosperity of Jamaica and to declare Jamaica as a Priority Country for Scotland in terms of trade and development.
