London Anarchist Bookfair

The London Bookfair, Bristol's big sister, returns for the 28th time. Unlike the more regional bookfairs such as Bristol's, the London one attracts anarchists from around the UK and internationally, arguable making it the largest anarchist gathering in the world. There's around 100 stalls, over 50 meetings, and all day film room, a performance space, creche and older kids space, and of course food, drink, frivolity...and a lot of serious plotting.
The ongoing success of the Bristol bookfair, allied to Bristol's own anti-cuts protests on the 23rd, will almost certainly diminish the Bristol presence at this years London bookfair. However its believed that Bristol Radical History Group, Kebele Infoshop, and Bristol ABC are taking stalls, and Bristol ABC are helping run a meeting. Bristol's militant ska-punkers Spanner are also down to play a bookfair benefit in Dalston in the evening.
Oh and if you are going to London, there's a big (we hope!) anti-cuts protest there too around midday, so no need to miss out - see http://london.indymedia.org.uk/events/5632
