NCC 'Proud of You' awards

Let's nominate an activist for one of these awards

Nottingham City Council is launching its 'Proud of You' awards in the Market Square next week

 http://www.nottinghamcity.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=6007

One of the awards is for a 'Champion of the Environment'. I thought it might be an idea to start a campaign to nominate a radical activist for the award. My first thought was to nominate one of the 114 arrested at the Iona school back in April.

However, I don't know any of them so have no idea if any of them would be willing to be involved (understandably they might not be considering bail conditions etc) but if anybody does know them maybe you could ask?

Alternatively, anybody got any other ideas for a suitable candidate?

Nominate a group

You can just nominate a group, not make a difference but a good wind up.


A better idea I thought to show our support for the 47 activists who are still being charged would be for people to hand themselves into the central police station on mass for thought crimes. If a lot of us did this just before the court hearings and got the media involved, then it would make a point.

I have thought many times about riding my bike on the pavement in Nottingham, I feel I need to be punished ;-)
