Video of Sainsbury’s Blockade

Short exciting video of one of the Sainsbury anti-GM blockades at Coleshill near Birmingham last Thursday night.

Short film from Undercurrents folks. 20 arrests across the country including 12 at Birmingham charged with obstruction of the highway with a 'non-motor vehicle', and one with secondary picketing. In court in Nuneaton on 22nd July. Rumour has it that every hour of blockade cost Sainsbury £150,000!

And we'll be back every week until they pull out....

Update on Birmingham court cases

13.08.2004 18:04

Just to let people know that 22nd July was adjourned til the 2nd Sept as the local plods didn't get their act together to give their "evidence" to the CPS. So all luck to those having to trawl back to Nuneaton then ( benefit gig at Plymouth Phoenix to help raise money for some of the travel and fine costs on bank holiday sunday 29th, 6 til 11.30)
