One year on…7.7.05

08-07-2006 00:10

Bristol - 6.7.05 (pic by Tom B)
As dusk falls, I try to remember…where exactly was I one year ago, as dusk fell?
Was I, as a legal volunteer from Bristol, monitoring protests against the G8 in Gleneagles (Scotland), still on duty outside the Stirling eco-camp attempting to monitor the police’s abuse of their powers?

Annual Independence FROM America demonstration at NSA Menwith Hill

07-07-2006 13:19

Campaign for the Accountability of American Bases
American 'Independence Day' at Menwith Hill used to be a grand affair - being a key date in the American calendar. One year the 'Red Arrows' came and there was always a big firework display on 4 July. This year the Americans at Menwith Hill held 'Independence Day' on the Saturday before 4 July - a bit like saying that a key religious festival eg Christmas Day is being moved to another day perhaps (maybe because we were there again calling for Independence FROM America?)

The African Prison Project

07-07-2006 04:12

Kenyan prisoners
An inspirational project set up in Nottingham.

The prison is severely overcrowded. Congestion precipitates the spread of infectious diseases that prevail due to malnutrition and a lack of hygiene, clean water and adequate health care. Prisoners exist in squalor without even the most basic of necessities. However, what the prison is perhaps most notorious for is its problem of gang rape, the existence of which, though frighteningly common-place, is often denied because of attitude towards homosexuality in East African society.
