WITNESS APPEAL: DECEMBER 17TH
If you witnessed any of the arrests resulting from the Notts Uncut
“Christmas Special” demonstration on Saturday December 17th 2011,
please contact Notts Uncut: nottsuncutaction@gmail.com
Anything you saw, no matter how insignificant it might seem, could be important.

PROTEST AGAINST ATOS AND POLICE REPRESSION
Although the CPS and Atos backed out from continuing the ridiculous
case against the “Atos Two”, Atos continue to make people’s lives a
misery and Notts Police have been busy in the last few months
harassing and arresting protesters in the city (see:
http://nottingham.indymedia.org/articles/2334).
In response, Nottingham Defence Campaign have called a protest against
Atos and police repression next Friday (3rd February) 12.30pm. Meet at
the junction of Carlton Street and Heathcote Street (outside Ice
Nine).
