Crap Arrest Copper

Here it is - that 'crap arrest' moment we've been searching for for ten years - courtesy of a friendly copper at the 2005 Big Green Gathering...

Skulduggery

On Halloween this year hundreds of folk got together on the ancient feasting ground of Tara to celebrate Samhain, the pagan new year. This was followed by digger diving 90's style and office actions on SIAC - the company partly responsible for the building of the M3 motorway, which is set to destroy part of Tara Hill, unless it can be stopped.

JUKE BOX JURY

Just to get up the noses of EDO/MBM Brighton's premiere arms manunfactueres the Smash EDO campaign held a sing-a-long karaoke noise demo for a change. It soon became clear Sussex Police didn't want to join in....

Divide and Fall

Coverage of the first No Borders Camp in the UK. Cheekily situated near Gatwick Airport where yet another refugee detention centre is being built, the camp became a hub for activists to exchange ideas, swap tactics and keep the issue of Britain's draconian treatment of asylum seekers in the public eye.* For more info see www.noborders.org.uk

History 101

Short and quirky take on the march for the right to protest in Brighton. After massive police overkill on previous marches, this one went off without a hitch and with a low police presence. Perhaps they've got the hint! Defend the right to protest before it becomes history.

No Experts

Rough edit of the entire Smash EDO Peace camp being seized by Sussex police and carted away... Despite all of this, actions on the Brighton war factory continued and a pr esence was still maintained on site. SchMOVIES will be posting more as soon as possible....

Tara Tara Tara

Reportage from the Hill Of Tara where direct action is the only thing standing in the way of destruction at one of the most important archaeological sites in Europe.

JEDI V's STORM TROOPERS

Rough cut from the day of action on the Sunday where the group broke past police, who were very heavy handed. And one of the horses proved that pigs might fly!!

REAL HARM

Reportage from Harmondsworth Detention Centre, where a solidarity noise demo was held to show support for those locked up there. SchMOVIES speaks to Enid, an ex-detainee from Harmondsworth who while exposing the brutality of the detention system also describes what life can be like for those trapped in the process.

MAKE MY DAY

The Met displayed their usual tolerant policing policy at the end of the Harmondsworth Detention Centre demo when they finally snapped and steamed into the Samba Band as they were marching a full half mile back to their coaches.

Seriously Organised

The much publiced sack parliament anti-war demo at the heart of Westminsters exclusion zone gave the Serious and Organised Crime and Punishment Acr (SOPCA) a thorough work out for the first time. The plan was to surround Parliament and prevent MPs, Lords and Civil Servants from continuing business after their Summer recess. 800 cops had other ideas.

BATTLE FOR TITNORE WOODS

The SchNEWS crew took a trip down to Titnore Woods near Worthing to find an up-for-it gang of protesters buiding tree houses and plotting to save this piece of ancient woodland from the onslaught of concrete, aided by strong support from the locals

GNIB Deportation Protest

Residents Against Racism carried out repeated blockades at the G.N.I.B in order to buy lawyers time to get injunctions against the deportations. This is what happened..
