The Common Place is Leeds autonomus social center and it is also closing on the 24th of April (statment from the Common Place).  The reasons given are famillier to many social centers, the work to keep the place running ended up falling on too few people, working on a rented building was hard work and it was not make enough money to pay the bills.  There are also less familier reasons, the local police had a vendetta agianst the Common Place and one of the orgional members was an undercover police (more on this).
