On Saturday, Nov. 15, 2008, a demonstration protesting the “Summit on Financial Markets, G20,” was held in Washington, D.C., Activist and attorney, Sarah Rimmington, was one of the individuals voicing her outrage about the $700 billion Bailout of the Wall Street bankers and fat cats by the taxpayers.

She said: “It’s the rich counties that created this crisis.” They are now acting, “as the gatekeepers to the money...The poor countries don’t’ even have a seat at the table...We want to see this process opened up to the global community and the trade unions...They [the police authorities] are not letting the people come and protest here.” Ms. Rimmington is associated with the Global Justice Action group.
