heather | 04.03.2004 00:02

thoughts and babbling on and on (as i do)

tomorrow night, manc social forum (friends meeting house, 7.30pm)... ideas, imagination, stuff like that is good... what do you think the ministry of truth should do/be/inhabit/exhibit/whatever next??
ideas of things to do in manc when the labour circus arrives, or after?
what do you want the social forum space to be for?

maybe we should try and get together and talk soon..

also, me and ros are doing a stall for nine ladies on market st on sat at 11.00am ish, to raise more cash - (it works and its bloody cold but it cheers u up!! people are nice!) and then going to nine ladies on sat afternoon. if anyone wants to give stuff/money or get a lift up there, email me.

i can't, can't get to blackwood...
but much love and respect to blackwood and ossory rd people

but its not enough..

please if you can, go to blackwood.
its the front line.

Time to tour?

How about taking the Ministry around the north? Bolton, Leeds(new S.F.), Liverpool?
I wonder what the "criminal" implications are of cleaning up the black shit off the grids? After all how many of the 100 days are there left to clean up M/C ?
As for what the S.F. space should be for, from what I have seen it is an evolving space (!/?) and I am enjoying the flow I am going with :)

Bloke In Black

Oi!


Yup, get down to Blackwood

...it's definitely the front line, and at the moment is severely ignored by the sorted protester types around the country. I'm actually getting quite pissed off at the thought of Nine Ladies being chocka with people with harnesses and know-how, with plenty of defences already built, and Blackwood sitting there un-defended and facing imminent eviction with 'severe staffing shortages' as some bureaucrat would no doubt say. Don't get me wrong, more power to 9L, but surely people can see that defending Blackwood is in their own interests, as far as I can see it is holding up the 9L eviction (although I think this is only a rumour, Rowan, where did you get that 36 chainsaw info from???)

to publicise or not to publicise, that should be the question

well today is the first time I've heard of Blackwood.

Maybe things have changed but last time I sat in a room of Earth First!ers talking about security etc they seemed to not want to tell anybody anything.

Are the two completely unrelated?

But seriously, I'm not completely out of the activism loop so how come I'd not hear of Blackwood until today? Yes, I am int'North but surely it's a well connected world (or not!)...
