The Problem With...Hope

I need to talk to you about hope. I need to warn you about having it, for merely by having hope you could become nothing more than a bundle of ineffectual good intentions. Hope could, in fact, be the single most dangerous thing to have in the environmental struggle we need to face up to.

There is a Foie Gras demo this evening at 5pm meet at Holborn tube. We will be demonstrtaing at a restaraunt.....we ahve placards. Bring anything noisy.
Re : today's police demo....maybe I missed something.....but where was everyone?
And to the bunch of cunts who did absolutely NOTHING when a {non cop} protester was grabbed by police, you should be ashamed of yourselves. Other than that incident which didn't result in arrest and getting an eansy weansy minor shove myself {I think it was a "man" thing...} it went off peacefully so far....looking foward to seeing the pics of the spoof police stall....well done to you!!

rampART social centre still hanging in there

Seems many people seem to think rampART has closed. IT HAS NOT !

The legal process is still ticking along with a decision expected soon on whether we can have an appeal hearing. In the meantime it is not possible for the 'owner' to get a warrant of possesion so there is no immediate threat of eviction.

We'd like to remind people that the space is still available for events etc and that we have a backup space should eviction interfere with peoples plans. However, keeping two spaces open has been a major drain on everyone involved and the rampART itself is not getting the attention it deserves for the last few weeks.

Pauline Campbell NOT arrested at Holloway.

Another death at Holloway...
Just two days before the anniversary of her daughters death in Styal Prison in 2003, Pauline Campbell was back at Holloway on Wednesday to demonstrate over yet another self-inflicted death inside its walls.

24 year old Jamie Pearce died on the 10th of December though her death has only just been rerecorded as “self inflicted” from “Unclassified”. There are now officially 8 such deaths recorded in England and Wales in 2007 a 166% rise from the year before. This was the 27th protest that Pauline has staged since her campaign began in 2004.

The group of protesters included two ex-prisoners (male); two grieving mothers whose loved ones had died in the 'care' of prisons in England; the mother of a teenager currently incarcerated in HMP Holloway; and a friend of the late Harry Stanley, who was shot dead by police in 1999.
