Manchester to host next squat meet

..., 10-02-2008 22:11

This weekend, around 100 people arrived from around the UK to a lovely squatted building in Leeds for a squat network gathering. Our presence was bold with a banner across the side of the place reading 'There is a lot of 'money' (crossed out, inserted 'people') in this building'. A blank agenda on the wall was gradually filled with interesting discussion/workshop ideas, and most of them took place in the sunshine outside! I did not stay until the very end of the gathering, so there might be a need for additions to this report. Here is a summary of some of the significant outcomes from each discussion.

Re Secretary of State for Health Alan Johnson's release on water fluoridation

Doug Cross and Liz Vaughan, 06-02-2008 19:59

The DoH refuses to acknowledge extensive evidence that the side effects of fluoridation can be so severe that, were it to be classified as a medicinal product (as EC law demands) then it would instantly be withdrawn from the market.
