Actions against the motorway through Tara, Ireland — reports and upcoming

This morn­ing, mon­day 6th jan ’08 at 7 am, 11 of us split up into two groups. We went to the Ard­sal­lagh Com­pound (site entrance 2.10) and Roestown (site entrance 2.1 ) . All the machin­ery was parked at these two sites for the past two weeks over Christ­mas.

Ardsallagh compound diggerThis morn­ing, mon­day 6th jan ’08 at 7 am, 11 of us split up into two groups. We went to the Ard­sal­lagh Com­pound (site entrance 2.10) and Roestown (site entrance 2.1 ) . All the machin­ery was parked at these two sites for the past two weeks over Christ­mas.

Ard­sal­lagh ; four of us went on site into the com­pund and blocked a lowloader in the gate, pre­vent­ing any more machin­ery being brought off to oth­er sites. They then head­ed across coun­try towards the Riv­er Boyne at site no. 2.9 . While two held the gate, two fol­lowed them across the field ‚stop­ping them before they reached the next stretch.Construction work­ers at the gate , try­ing to intim­i­date the pro­test­ers assault­ed one man , drag­ging him to the ground and pulling out of the way allow­ing the lowloader past. In the mean time, off route down the road two of us were wait­ing to be picked up (help with trans­port need­ed), when we saw a dig­ger com­ing towards us along the hedge line. The dri­ver pro­ceed­ed to dri­ve up to us near­ly kock­ing us over. when we stood our ground in front of the machine, he got out and ver­bal­ly and phys­i­cal­ly asault­ed us. The gau­rds then arrived treat­en­ing arrest on any­one who stayed under the Mis­cel­la­neous Act2004 sec­tion 19c but were help­ful and co oper­a­tive when told about the assaults , tak­ing the dig­ger dri­vers name.

Roestown: As today was the first day of con­struc­tion since before Christ­mas, we need­ed to block­ade the machin­ery from enter­ing the val­ley again. From the N3 we could see the machin­ery mov­ing towards Trevet from the Roestown com­pound. We arrived there just as the first dig­ger was approach­ing. There were 5 of us. We all went into the site and approached the dig­ger. The dri­ver com­plied with health and safe­ty reg­u­la­tions and stopped his machine imme­di­ate­ly. We made a block­ade in front of the machine with traf­fic cones, poles and safe­ty notices. Mark Cleary and his com­rades entered the site, along with secu­ri­ty. They filmed us and removed the block­ade. One pro­tes­tor was stand­ing on the block­ade, Mark Cleary pushed him off. A jeep com­ing from the Roestown direc­tion passed us by, the dig­ger dri­ver had switched back on his machine. Anoth­er pro­tes­tor on bail con­di­tions stayed at the site entrance with ban­ners on the pub­lic road, play­ing his tin whis­tle. Mark Cleary and this pro­tes­tor had a cam­er­al duel! The Gar­dai arrived and asked us to leave the site, quot­ing the Hous­ing and Misc Act 2004, sec­tion C. We were told we would be arrest­ed if we were seen again today on a M3 site. The Gar­dai fol­lowed us to the Ard­sal­lagh com­pound. We held a ban­ner protest there on the side of the road. The same Gar­dai were very inter­est­ed in the Tara issue, and asked us ques­tions about archae­ol­o­gy and Lis­mullen. Nobody was arrest­ed.

Tara Call­ing !!!

As you may know on St. Stevens Day 2007, the NRA hand­ed over the archae­o­log­i­cal site at lismullen,with its wood henge

(which was des­ig­nat­ed a nationa lmon­u­ment in may 2007)

and an amaz­ing sub­ter­rain com­plex

(destroyed in ear­ly decem­ber 2007 with out any inde­pen­dent archae­ol­o­gy car­ried out)

con­tain­ing mega­lith­ic art from much ear­li­er mon­u­ments, to SIAC/FERROVIAL the con­struc­tion con­sor­tium

to face its faith as yet anoth­er mon­u­men­tal diaster in the gabhra val­ley,

at the hands of gov­ern­ment appoint­ed van­dals!

This is because the twelve weeks giv­en to the NRA archae­ol­o­gists to exca­vate and destroy the two thirds of the henge

lieing in the path of the pro­posed motor­way is up and under the Nation­al Mon­u­ments Act 2004

it now belongs to SIAC/FERROVIAL.

Con­struc­tion Work­ers return to work tom­mor­row morn­ing Mon­day 7th of Jan at 7am after two weeks of bliss­ful

silence in the Val­ley.

Shoshone Defenders of Mount Tenabo Constructing Encampment (occupied North America)

Decem­ber 1, 2008
At some point today, sev­er­al men will begin con­struct­ing a per­ma­nent arbor on the South­ern flank of Mt. Ten­abo, where they will camp and mon­i­tor the Cana­di­an min­ing com­pa­ny Bar­rick Gold.

Shoshone protest placardShoshone mountain destructionDecem­ber 1, 2008
At some point today, sev­er­al men will begin con­struct­ing a per­ma­nent arbor on the South­ern flank of Mt. Ten­abo, where they will camp and mon­i­tor the Cana­di­an min­ing com­pa­ny Bar­rick Gold.

The encamp­ment was called on dur­ing last week’s protest, where Shoshone Grand­moth­ers and their sup­port­ers attempt­ed to con­front Bar­rick Gold and bring an end to the destruc­tion of the pin­ion for­est — which began almost imme­di­ate­ly after the com­pa­ny got approval to go ahead with its ‘Cortez Hills Expan­sion Project.’

A mas­sive cyanide heap leach gold mine, the project will ulti­mate­ly destroy approx­i­mate­ly 6,800 acres of land — frac­tur­ing along with it, the spir­i­tu­al life and cul­tur­al prac­tices of the Shoshone Peo­ple.

“This is our treaty land. It was a treaty made with the fed­er­al gov­ern­ment. It was not made with a for­eign nation. And it is a for­eign min­ing com­pa­ny that has come into our coun­try and is destroy­ing our moun­tain, our land, our food, our med­i­cine and they have no respect,” stat­ed one Grand­moth­er at the protest.

“…It can’t go on. It’s per­pe­trat­ing geno­cide against the Native Amer­i­can peo­ple. And we are not the only Native peo­ple suf­fer­ing this dis­tress,” said anoth­er. “It is hap­pen­ing world over; but we hap­pen to be West­ern Shoshon­es and this is our land and we’re protest­ing the poi­soned water, the destruc­tion of the land, the road we’re stand­ing on here, the big machines: every­thing that the min­ing indus­try stands for. They say they’re doing it respon­si­bly, but they’re not because when they leave the West­ern Shoshone peo­ple will still be here and the land will be bar­ren.”

To help make sure this doesn’t hap­pen, the West­ern Shoshone Defense Project (WSDP) asks that you help by mak­ing any of the fol­low­ing the dona­tions:

  1. 24 Nuts and Bolts (bolts need to be 1 foot in length with match­ing nuts)
  2. Gaso­line for saws and haul­ing costs.
  3. Food items such as eggs, bacon, meat, pota­toes, beans, etc. (includ­ing some sweets!)
  4. Helpers — to assist with con­struc­tion of arbor and for sup­port in the encamp­ment
  5. Mon­e­tary dona­tions for all of the above
  6. Moral sup­port and prayers

Happy Valley Occupation Celebration — Two Years! (Aotearoa/New Zealand)

SAVE HAPPY VALLEY!
OCCUPATION CELEBRATION — TWO YEARS!
THE WEEKEND OF FEBRUARY 2nd-3rd, 2008

SAVE HAPPY VALLEY!
OCCUPATION CELEBRATION — TWO YEARS!
THE WEEKEND OF FEBRUARY 2nd-3rd, 2008

You are invit­ed to the Save Hap­py Val­ley Coali­tion’s cel­e­bra­tion of our SECOND suc­cess­ful year of occu­py­ing Hap­py Val­ley. We have been con­tin­u­ous­ly occu­py­ing Hap­py Val­ley since Jan­u­ary 28th 2006 in order to pre­vent Sol­id Ener­gy from turn­ing it into an envi­ron­men­tal­ly dev­as­tat­ing open­cast coal-mine. Despite spies, 6000 snails from Augus­tus trans­ferred in ice­cream con­tain­ers, the destruc­tion of a near­by moun­tain, Sol­id Ener­gy’s plans for mas­sive expan­sion, and the Octo­ber 15th raids on activists, peo­ple have man­aged to keep Hap­py Val­ley safe so far! Yay for train track block­ades, film nights, alter­na­tives to min­er­als forums, demos, radio inter­views, every­one’s actions, and the OCCUPATION!

The Save Hap­py Val­ley Coali­tion, and any­one who wish­es to join us for the week­end cel­e­bra­tion, will be meet­ing at Les War­ren Park, in West­port, at 8am on Sat­ur­day 2nd Febu­rary 2008. (The major­i­ty of us will trav­el to West­port from Christchurch on the Fri­day night, car pool­ing can be arranged thru the coor­di­na­tor).

You will need all of your own tramping/camping gear and food, enough for the dura­tion of your intend­ed stay and you need to be pre­pared for unpre­dictable weath­er; rain; sun; hot and cold. This means that you must have have suit­able footwear, water­proof and warm cloth­ing, a sleep­ing bag and a tent (unless you have arranged to share with some­one else). An extend­ed gear list will be made avail­able to you when you con­firm plans with the occu­pa­tion coor­di­na­tor. If you do not have the required gear we may be able to pro­vide it for you, but please ensure that by the Fri­day you have the cor­rect gear.

We will be leav­ing the val­ley / return­ing to West­port on Sun­day the 3rd but it would be awe­some if you are able to stay longer in the val­ley!! Please let the coor­di­na­tor know.

We hope you can join us. Please RSVP so we can coor­di­nate eas­i­ly 🙂 Please let us know if you have any spe­cial needs that are of con­cern, we will be as accom­mo­dat­ing as pos­si­ble and we can pro­vide you with as much infor­ma­tion as you require.

For more infor­ma­tion please con­tact the occu­pa­tion coor­di­na­tor.

Thanks for your sup­port!

rampART losses possesion case but buys two more weeks

20.12.2007
Today the ram­pART social cen­tre lost in court against a claim for pos­ses­sion. A pos­ses­sion order will now be grant­ed although not until the 3rd Jan 2008.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO RECEIVE NEWS ALERTS ABOUT LONDON SOCIAL CENTRES?

20.12.2007
Today the ram­pART social cen­tre lost in court against a claim for pos­ses­sion. A pos­ses­sion order will now be grant­ed although not until the 3rd Jan 2008.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO RECEIVE NEWS ALERTS ABOUT LONDON SOCIAL CENTRES?
Text ‘fol­low lon­don­scn’ to 07624801423 then reply with a name as instruct­ed.

If you are inter­est­ed in mak­ing sure there are new social cen­tres to fill the void, please come along to the meet­ing on the 6th. (more details clos­er to the time).

In the mean­time, in their last newslet­ter, the ram­pART col­lec­tive made a call out for help sort­ing out RAMpart2 (toward bot­tom below)…

The whole out of the blue evic­tion threat smacks of a vin­dic­tive puni­tive reac­tion to the cam­paign of objec­tion against the pro­posed demo­li­tion of the hous­es next to the social cen­ter. It turns out that the so-called new own­ers of the hous­es are in fact a whol­ly owned sub­sidiary of the ‘pre­vi­ous own­er’, the Ram­part Trust Co Ltd that still owns the ware­house which the social cen­ter occu­pies. Even though there is no plan­ning per­mis­sion in place or applied for in rela­tion to the social cen­tre, they claim that they intend to start demo­li­tion in Jan/Feb 2008. Obvi­ous­ly this is impos­si­ble and they know it, so their attempt to have us evict­ed is not real­ly because of any impend­ing work in the new year.

Speak­ing of plan­ning, it is still pos­si­ble to lodge objec­tions against the pro­posed new hous­es on the site of the exist­ing hous­es. The offi­cer deal­ing with the case is cur­rent­ly on leave and so the con­sul­ta­tion peri­od has appar­ent­ly not been closed. If you’ve not yet writ­ten and espe­cial­ly if your address is one in Tow­er­ham­lets, then please write a let­ter per­haps object­ing to the pro­pos­al on the grounds that it involved a demo­li­tion inside the con­ser­va­tion zone and the new con­struc­tion will total­ly change the char­ac­ter of this piece of east end her­itage. You might also men­tion that the own­er is on record as plan­ning to make an appli­ca­tion relat­ing to the build­ing next door and there­fore the devel­op­ment should be con­sid­ered as a whole to real­ly under­stand the visu­al impact that the changes cur­rent­ly pro­posed might have.

As well as pro­vid­ing your name and address, you need to clear­ly spec­i­fy in the sub­ject the appli­ca­tion num­ber PA/07/02707 and the fact that the let­ter is for OBJECTION (eg. sub­ject : Objec­tion to Appli­ca­tion PA/07/02707 — 7–11a Ram­part Street)

All the objec­tion let­ter can be sent to Ben­son Olaseni, who will cir­cu­late the let­ter to Simon Ryan the case offi­cer.

Here is the email : benson.olaseni@towerhamlets.gov.uk

You might be inter­est­ed to know that the solic­i­tors work­ing for the own­er in their claim to have us evict­ed are Brech­er Solic­i­tors who are at Heron Place, 3 George Street, Lon­don ( admin@brecher.co.uk, 02075631000) and give that address as the care of address for the co-claimants, the Ram­part Trust Com­pa­ny Ltd (owned by Mr Wolfe) and RMO Devel­op­ments Ltd (owned by Ram­part Trust Co. Ltd)

While they keep their address­es off the claim, an inter­net search pro­vides the fol­low­ing info.

RAMPART TRUST CO LIMITED (Reg­is­tered No. 00394626)
27 NORRICE LEA, LONDON, N2 0RD

Rmo Devel­op­ments Ltd. (Reg­is­tra­tion Num­ber: 6183351)
Mow­bray House, 58/70 Edg­ware Way
Edg­ware Mid­dle­sex HA8 8DJ

A lit­tle over a year ago, a prop­er­ty com­pa­ny sent some­body called Richard Sel­by to vis­it the build­ings with Mr Wolfe, the ben­e­fi­cia­ry of the Ram­part Trust — appar­ent­ly to show a financier around for the pur­pos­es of a val­u­a­tion. Coin­ci­den­tal­ly this Her­itage Group (020 8958 0000 info@heritagegroup.co.uk) actu­al­ly shares the same address as RMO Devel­op­ments Ltd.

The agent act­ing for the own­er in all deal­ings relat­ing to the pro­posed devel­op­ments is Alan Camp Archi­tects ( +44 (0)20 7593 1000 mail@alancamp.com 88 Union Street Lon­don SE1 0NW). They’ve also had the involve­ment of Miller Prop­er­ty Con­sul­tants (17 Hog­a­rth Avenue, Brent­wood, Essex CM15 8BE 01277 233 100 / 07957 544 007 advice@millerproperty.co.uk).

I’m sure that in some coun­tries there would be hordes of angry direct action anar­chist types and cyber hack­ers caus­ing obstruc­tion and dis­rup­tion to the evil ones but here things are usu­al­ly done dif­fer­ent­ly. We are mak­ing a call out for the fol­low­ing…

Offers of vans and dri­vers for trans­port when we have to move out.

Ideas and offers of stor­age space for the resources in the ram­pART

Noti­fi­ca­tion of emp­ties for future new social cen­tres

Mobile phone num­bers of those will­ing to drop every­thing to come defend the space.

Vol­un­teers for peo­ple to rec­cy and access short­list­ed build­ings

Mobile num­bers of peo­ple up for ini­tial­ly hold­ing down a new­ly opened build­ing.

A signup sheet of those up for help­ing clean up and fix up such a build­ing.

A list of those peo­ple either want­i­ng to act as live in ‘care tak­ers’ or those up for being on an occu­pa­tion rota.

email ram­part at mutu­alaid dot org

We are also organ­is­ing a meet­ing which aims to breath new life into open­ing not just one new space to replace the ram­pART but ini­ti­ate a lon­don social cen­tres col­lec­tive which would try to ensure that there are plen­ty of social cen­tres, prefer­able through­out Lon­don on an ongo­ing basis.

It will take place 2pm Sun­day 6th Jan 08
please pass the word and come along if this inter­ests you.

This month­ly news sheet aims to inform peo­ple across Scot­land, and fur­ther, from a wide range of back-grounds about a fight to save the plan­et (yes, that old chest­nut). As I am sure you are aware human induced cli­mate change is immi­nent, and every per­son on the plan­et has to do some­thing about it. The Scot­tish Cli­mate Activist Net­work brings togeth­er activists and con­cerned indi­vid­u­als from across Scot­land so we can sup­port each oth­er in our work to stop cli­mate change through protest and direct action along with build­ing sus­tain­able alter­na­tives.

It is avail­able in hard copy in all good social cen­tres and hip­py hang-outs or online.

Sustainable Xmas — Cheadle leafletting, free space & bike protest

Cheadle­High­Street Against Cli­mate Change say ‘A plan­et is not just for Xmas’

Activists from Cheadle­High­Street Against Cli­mate Change have com­menced their cam­paign for a sus­tain­able Xmas. Nation­al research has indi­cat­ed that peo­ple through hol­i­day eat­ing, trav­el, Christ­mas lights, and gift giv­ing pro­duce on aver­age 650 kg of CO2 emis­sions per indi­vid­ual. This is 5.5% of the year­ly car­bon foot­print of the UK.

This is 5.5% of the year­ly car­bon foot­print of the UK.

The aver­age per­son dur­ing the Hol­i­days pro­duces 26 kg of CO2 from Christ­mas food, 96 kg of CO2 from Christ­mas Car trav­el, 218 kg of CO2 from extrav­a­gant light­ing dis­plays, 310 kg of CO2 on Christ­mas Shop­ping.

CACC mem­bers recieved a good response from shop­pers of all nation­al­i­ties with their leaflets ’ A plan­et is not just for Xmas’. Shop­pers were urged to buy local­ly grown conifers in pots rather than import­ed Scan­dana­vian trees and to use solar pow­ered lights . An exchange has been set up for recy­cled presents and those want­i­ng an alter­na­tive to farm pro­duced cru­el­ty have been offered soya tex­tured pro­tein in exchange for the Xmas turkey.

A ‘Xmas free space ’ will be opened for those suf­fer­ing stress at Xmas and those who wor­ship oth­er reli­gions or who are aethe­ists and pagans.There will also be a Box­ing Day bike protest against traf­fic con­ges­tion

National Squatters Meeting 9–10 February 2008 Leeds

So we are invit­ing peo­ple involved in all squat­ted autonomous spaces around the UK to meet and dis­cuss the squat­ting sit­u­a­tion and some prepa­ra­tion for the days of action in April.

Squat action days flierSo we are invit­ing peo­ple involved in all squat­ted autonomous spaces around the UK to meet and dis­cuss the squat­ting sit­u­a­tion and some prepa­ra­tion for the days of action in April.

So we are invit­ing peo­ple involved in all squat­ted autonomous spaces around the UK to meet and dis­cuss the squat­ting sit­u­a­tion and some prepa­ra­tion for the days of action in April. The idea for this meet­ing is inspired by the recent inter­na­tion­al meet­ing in Dijon.

Some of the ideas of what could be dis­cussed at this meet­ing are…
• Build­ing a stronger net­work between the squats/Autonomous spaces through­out the UK.
• Ini­tial plan­ning for the days of action.
• The repres­sion and resis­tance fac­ing Autonomous spaces in the UK.
• How we can make bet­ter use of Autonomous spaces in terms of con­nect­ing them to issues such as increased sur­veil­lance, hous­ing prob­lems, gen­tri­fi­ca­tion and the fun­da­men­tal issue of who owns and con­trols our land, space and lives.
• The impact of non squat­ted Autonomous spaces on the squat­ting move­ment.
• Break­ing out of the “squat­ting scene”.
• The impact of drugs on the move­ment.

This is just some ideas of what could come out of this meet­ing, obvi­ous­ly there is no set agen­da as this is decen­tral­ized so we want to make a col­lec­tive deci­sion about what will be dis­cussed at the start of the meet­ing.
We feel this could be a real­ly pos­i­tive week­end; we’d like to see loads of you there. We’ve cho­sen Leeds as a loca­tion even though not all of us live there, because although it might not feel like it to you down south but it’s a cen­tral loca­tion on this island!
Please get in touch if you’re gonna come along, our e‑mail is below. It is impor­tant for us to know how many peo­ple to expect. Please also get in touch if you want help set up or get involved in any oth­er way… Hope to see you all in Feb­ru­ary….

rampART gets eviction papers — meeting planned

12.12.2007 — the ram­pART social cen­tre in Lon­don today received court papers for re-pos­ses­sion on the grounds of Tres­pass. The hear­ing date is the 20th Dec.

squat logo 112.12.2007 — the ram­pART social cen­tre in Lon­don today received court papers for re-pos­ses­sion on the grounds of Tres­pass. The hear­ing date is the 20th Dec.

So much for the sea­son of good will.

The ram­pART and neigh­bour­ing hous­es have all been served court papers for a hear­ing on the 20th Dec. Bad tim­ing to say the least as a bunch of us were off to do a pre­sen­ta­tion about the space and show films at an event in Barcelona next week and are poten­tial­ly home­less by xmas.

We’ve start­ed the process of seek­ing advice regard­ing the court hear­ing but don’t hold your breath, the end is nigh.

This obvi­ous­ly impacts on a whole bunch of stuff. For exam­ple we’ve just had the a cam­paign group move their office into the ram­pART, Bicy­col­o­gy were plan­ning on doing up the bike work­shop this week­end and there’s var­i­ous groups got dates booked for events next year, not to men­tion the new years eve par­ty.

Basi­cal­ly we need to have a meet­ing of all the effect­ed groups/individuals to dis­cuss our response and plan what will hap­pen over the next month or so.

Assume this meet­ing will be at the ram­pART next mon­day 7pm.
