Bristol, UK based activists were involved in actions to by-pass the mainstream media and take the message of the Prague protest directly to the people who it effects - everyone. Banners were hung round the city with a web link containing an article to introduce people to why the actions and issues raised in Prague should matter the them.

25/9/00:Solidarity protests in Bristol, UK continued last night as various autonomous groups undertook action to highlight the action in Prague. Small groups of activists hung banners over road intersections around the main entrance to, and on the ring-road around Bristol city centre. These were aimed at highlighting the happenings in Prague as not just isolated incidents, but part of the global resistance to capitalism and domination by financial interests. Some banners carried a web address as well as slogans, www.bristolresist.com where articles, links and information was posted aimed at informing those outside the protest movement, how the issues effect everyone, whether living in Bristol, the UK or the world.

26/9/00: As of 6pm the banners are still in place. I was reported that one banner that had come loose was seen to being re-attached by an unnamed passer-by. More actions are planned for the rest of the week and beyond.
