When Stokes Croft erupted into riots last year, national attention was focused on a fascinating and diverse area of Bristol. This event brings locally made films on Stokes Croft to the big screen; from the anti-Tesco Riots to the graffiti scene, to some strange technological goings on you might never have heard of! We have a number of filmmakers bringing their own filmic contributions and individual perpectives to the much debated subject of Stokes Croft. We want your contribution too. So join us for a night of films, discussion and debate.

Films include:

"Whose Croft" (Mim van der Waal)

"Invisible Airs" video link to vimeo (Alistair Oldham)

"Why did the Sokes Croft riot Happen" video link to youtube (Ben Edwards)

"One year on..." video link to vimeo (Louis Emanuel)

Monday 14th May, 8pm at the Cube Cinema (directions) - Entry £3/4 but nobody turned away for lack of funds.

Centrica are having their AGM this week on Fri 11th and local activists are planning to be heard...

On Fri 11th May we want to tell Hinkley investor, Centrica loud & clear No to new nuclear.

We believe that centrica’s pressure on the UK government to take more taxpayers money to pay for a project that they themselves believe will fail in order that their shareholders can profit out of us twice (once when they build the plant then again when they bill us for energy) is immoral and unethical.

The electricity market reform act already promised to these greedy utilities is a public subsidy by the back door. Nuclear power plants never have been and never will be profitable endeavours which is why in 2006 when the government tried to create the nuclear renaissance they knew it wouldn’t go down well with the public. Now after a six year campaign of lobbying and expensive PR campaigns to get the public to swallow nuclear as a ‘necessary evil’ they want to dump responsibility for financing back on the already skint public.

To this end we have a bit of armchair activism that everyone can join in with no matter what your time/energy/money commitments are...Full Article

This April a group of anarchists, leftists, trade unionists, students, workers and rebels came together. Their aim is to put May Day back on the map in Bristol. The result is a diverse range of events representing many struggles, or as we see it many facets of the same struggle; against oppression for a free and just society.  We're looking for people not just to come a long but to get involved in shaping how the week turns out as we head towards the big day of action on may 5th.
