Colchester Radical Centre update

Bodie | 28.08.2002 11:38

We were all in court today and dispite our best efforts the ignorant right wing bastard judge Molle gave a posession order to capita. So this is the end of the road - or is it?

We haven't had the bailifs round yet and we aren't expecting them today. However, there will be a meeting in the centre this evening at 8 to decide what to do next. Capita want to leave the the building to go to ruin, we won't let that happen and we want to stay. If necissary we can barricade the basement and take enough food for a long stay, but we will decide that tonight. We are currently in the process of moving all valuable equipment out and any help would be appreciated. If you want to help or want any more information call 07986654583 or 07905477229

Don't be silly. Mondo sucks anyway dude. and we DON'T appreciate being threatened for wanting to use space for valid community-based projects.

Given the fact that the building is a Grade II listed building, Capita plc are obligated to either pay for its upkeep OR seek help from the voluntary sector :) to do this under UK planning law.

Despite the fact that we were in court with a woman and child, a psychologically disturbed young lady, and an autistic girl the judge still set the order for eviction the SAME DAY as the court appearance (28/08/02).

Interestingly enough, despite the local paper (Evening Gazette) running two articles now on us, it still hasn't appeared on the www.thisisessex.co.uk website. So someone is concerned about the word getting out DESPITE the fact that we were trying to do valid things like computer recycling and art projects in the place. :(
