Lancaster 'First' Carnival Of Culture 2008

anarchoteapot, 04-03-2008 12:25

"The Carnival of Culture is a celebration of all that’s good and distinctive about Lancaster and a protest against the corporate takeover of our city by Centros Miller and other developers, against the wishes of the community.
From Centros Miller, the Northern Link road and out-of-town supermarket plans at Lawson’s bridge, Lancaster is subject to a barrage of proposed developments designed to benefit large companies, yet threaten the fabric and liveliness of our communities. We are tired of the lack of any say for the residents of the city as to the direction that the planners are taking us.

The Carnival is about giving Centros, the Council and any other developers a taste of the strength of our communities and of our opposition. It’s also about making links and creating lots of exciting and fun events!"

Peter Muldoon, 04-12-2007 10:23

But by providing the opportunity to make their voices heard in the local community, Halton Access to Media (HAM) and its reACT media course is empowering them to become confident, articulate and productive individuals.

BBC protests - London and Manchester - August 14th

Defective by Design, 28-07-2007 01:30

Today the BBC made it official -- they have been corrupted by Microsoft.

With today's launch of the iPlayer, the BBC Trust has failed in its most basic of duties and handed over to Microsoft sole control of the on-line distribution of BBC programming.
