'People shouldn't be left to starve'

I just met a family of protesters at our cybercafe HQ. They came in to ask what was happening, as there are still several coaches on Princes Street waiting to depart for the march outside Gleneagles.

Adrian Baldwin, 37, and his wife and daughter had travelled from Bristol to make their voices heard.

Listen to what he had to say (mp3)

"We thought it would be good to come and show our support for the Make Poverty History campaign, because we believe it's important that you shouldn't be left to starve just because you were born in one country and not in another.

"I think in the long term, the more people that support the campaign, the less acceptable it becomes for people to have a selfish attitude."
