Lampeter wakes up against the Cuts

The incredible 'Progress' Sound System: don't get in its way!
Against national cuts
Local plans are nuts!
In town on the day
The Carnival was intended to show our indignation at the current ‘austerity programme’ (read: redistribution of wealth from the poor to the rich) nationally, and in its local manifestations.
Here at Lampeter porters and librarians are being laid off, whilst the Vice-Chancellor, Medwin Hughes, has recently increased his salary to £192,000. His intention to spend hundreds of thousands of pounds of university money on an ornamental lake (will there be a duck island, we wonder?) has also provoked anger.
Staff and students speak out: a 3-minute film about the day
