In a wave of publicity surrounding the action, people all around the country and talking about visiting their local vodafone store in disgust at being allowed to not pay £4.8bn in tax, while vital public services are being smashed. Here is the call out. In london we will meet in our hundreds to shut as many stores as possible. If you live outside of London, why not make this a nation-wide day of action against the cuts!Hyrbyair Marri is Hijacking the Baloch struggle?

27-10-2010 23:03
update: the edl demo is banned by the mayor to the midle of nowhere in the western docklands after an good media campagne and grassroots organising by amsterdam afa.its waiting now to see if they will accept but the mayor made it very clear that any EDL (or AFA for that matter) that demonstrators outside their designated area will be arrested (and in case of the edl "kicked back on the boat they came from", the mayors words)
AFA still puts out an alert too opose EDL actvity over the whole weekend (there is talk that the EDL will seek an court rulling too get their central demo location back) but is faced with an emergency "restraining" order. An UAF like protest is allowed in the center of town at the old synagoge at the feet of the remembrance statue for the 1941 general strikers.
Ajax tifosi and migrant youth have vowed to give the EDl canal swimming lessons if they show up in town mob-handed.

Bristol Council's preference for cars over people
27-10-2010 14:22
An example of how they couldn't care less for the blind and partially sited.Despite all of it’s policy statements, advisors and alleged political correctness,
Bristol City council shows us it’s true colours .
Whilst out for a cycle for once I hade a camera with me so I took these photos. This place has been bugging me for a long while and here’s one reason why:
Imagine you are either blind or partially sighted. Getting around a busy city, perhaps on your way to the train station is bound to pose one or to challenges. Therefore you might think the community conscious local authority which is paid to enable citizens, in this concrete maze we call home, get around the place with the minimum of harassment.
Unfortunately this is not the case.
One minor item that may have been of use in the preservation of life and limb – like a pavement has been ignored with large immobile tin boxes taking precedence,
others have been known to labels these selfish items (in cities anyway) as automobiles.
But on a more serious - NO ANGRY - point. The council takes great heed to claim it supports minorities, regardless of class, age, gender or race and rightly so but apparently NOT to disability.
Pavements are not only important but could also be argued as essential to the blind so on a relatively new build where are they?
And what has taken there place? Green space maybe? No, a fucking car docking point.
Then of course there’s small children, parents with push chairs and other vulnerable pedestrians that may benefit.
The only good point of this lay out is that if some commuter, late for his/her train, parks too close up to an apartment front door it can’t be used.
So I’m thinking what a selfish place this is…
Hence the last few pictures of some real quality wall painting.
Cheers for reading this, I just hope you are a council planner.
