Mainshill Solidarity Camp latest

11th July 2009
We’ve made it to the week­end with­out being evict­ed and we’ve been rebuild­ing the defences which were dis­man­tled by Scot­tish Coal and the police. We’ve been invent­ing new cre­ative for­ti­fi­ca­tions to dupe the cops and stop the destruc­tion of Main­shill. The sup­port from the local com­mu­ni­ty has con­tin­ued to be fan­tas­tic — we’d like to say a big thank you.

Now is the time to come to Main­shill — we need to be pre­pared for evic­tion and need more peo­ple to come and stay in our tree­hous­es. Here are some pics from the last cou­ple of days — there’s some­thing for every­one!

Also, we’re cel­e­brat­ing our one month birth­day on Sun­day 19th July with anoth­er com­mu­ni­ty pic­nic — all are wel­come.
