  1. Sounds like a reasonable cause. We have problems like that here in Tokyo as well. Most often the government shitstem and the developers have their hands so deep in each others pockets you cant tell one from the other.

    However it must be the conservative in me which says that if one penny goes to squatters and other slack jawed hippie types who wont work then I start getting all uptight.

  2. In order to raise funds to save his shop and home on Broadway Market, Spirit
    invites you to a barbeque and dance.

    This Saturday 29th July

    4pm – 12 midnight

    With Solution Sound System playing Roots Reggae old and new (70’s, 80’s, 90’s,
    00’s, JA and UK).

    To be held @ Space training and resources, 129 – 131 Mare St, Hackney E8.
    Entrance is on Warburton Rd (off Mare St, London Fields pub is on the corner)

    The event will be held in a large, outdoor, covered area so rain will not stop
    play.

    Entrance £5

  3. EVENT CANCELLED

    Unfortunately the organisers have just informed us that due to problems with staffing at the venue, Spirit’s barbeque and reggae dance which was due to take place this Saturday, has been cancelled.

    Apologies for any inconvenience caused. Please, please foward this and spread the word, we don’t want anybody to have a wasted journey.

    Big Respect
