Re: [casi] FW: Fw: Request for information on anti war movement



Hi Lila,

Yes, I know Naomi, she does a lot of work with the Cambridge Students
Against War group, and was arrested for lying in the street at the Warzone
Whitehall action in December, so I'd say it's more likely to be that she's
passionately interested in the subject than that she's doing research for
MI5! But I can appreciate your caution.

Best wishes,
Jonathan
