report of attack on mill rd social centre


At about half 1 this morning the mill rd social centre was attacked for the second time in a week. Thugs armed with an iron bar smashed windows and damaged vehicles in attempt to intimidate the occupants, then drove off. No Pasaran.

The van whose registration number was mentioned in the original report turned out to be not involved in the attack.

I can't believe this happened - it is people's home as well as being a social centre, to randomly smash the windows of someone's home is pretty shocking - it must have been pretty scary for the people who were inside at the time! Glad everyone's alright.

The people who did this should really feel ashamed of themselves. If they have some problem with the social centre they can come talk to us about it any time, but to try and scare people like this is just stupid and pointless. Not to mention cowardly.
