We've been very quiet I know ... tackling Tesco is a tiring past time! Tesco have now got planning permission to open BUT ... the fight continues to reclaim and transform our food system ...

1. TAKING THE COUNCIL TO COURT
We are taking the Council to court through Judicial Review for their failure to handle the case fairly. Please get in touch if you have legal experience or contacts.

2. BOYCOTT TESCO - SUPPORTING ALTERNATIVES
We are soon to launch a Boycott Tesco campaign which marks the shift of emphasis to supporting positive alternatives to the supermarkets.

We are working with London's People's Supermarket to try and set up a cooperatively run sustainable food shop in Stokes Croft. Check it outhttp://www.facebook.com/l/33c70gQdp04lVHoa479IWdkIEyg;www.thepeoplessupermarket.org and watch this space to find out how to get involved.

3. HUNGER FOR JUSTICE, 22 FEB, 7.30PM
