London: radical dairy not evicted yet
|
The Radical Dairy in Hackney, London was in court
Monday 13th but the case was posponed. The Dairy has
been going for over a year and we it was important to
us to try to make links with people living locally
(doesn't happen much in London 'cos everyone is so
paranoid and alienated.) We had a lot of successes in
this area with loads of flowers outside and tables
where we would bring people cups of tea. We were doing
well with kids DJ workshops and free computer access
for the local bairns but the police soon put a stop to
this dangerous activity by getting the electricity cut
off. Since then we have been very cold but we have
been doing cafes, free cinema and various benefits-
for the Zapatistas, people arrested in Strasburg No
Border camp, etc etc. We had an anti queens Jubilee
street party with everyone dressed as dead princesses.
We carried on with our Yoga classes, English classes
for immigrants etc as best as we could by candlelight.
The locals have been brilliant, coming out in the
street and abusing the police whenever they hassle us-
this NEVER happens in England (in my lifetime anyway.)
So for the moment we're still here. Anyone passing
through London, come and visit us at 47 Kynaston Rd
N16.
Good luck to everyone squatting everywhere in the
world & keep the crowbar flying.
