| . | p13 N16 asked the Radical Dairy to explain what they're about.
Into July now, the owners of the building have been round again, and,
again, they see how positive the place is and don't have the heart to evict us; the old
bill's backed off (for now), the sun's out, the garden's flourishing, the collective's
growing and the place is buzzing with the energies of the universe! Up and coming events
include a Spanish Civil War night featuring discussion, film, food and flamenco; clay oven
making workshops, mural painting, nature walks and, of course, lots of sunbathing! The Radical Dairy; 47 Kynaston Rd, N16 Tel: 020 7249 6996 email. theradicaldairy@hotmail.com

So why
did the cops try to shut us down in April? Well, we reckon that they are merely the
footsoldiers of the state and capitalism, which don't like it when people organise
themselves in a nonhierarchical, not-for-profit way for the good of themselves and the
community. So, in they came, all 30 of 'em, fully tooled up with riot gear etc. They
sealed off the surounding area, booted down the door, searched everyone in the place,
nicked our computers and chopped us of the national grid! This meant that, up until very
recently (we've just got a generator), we've been unable to provide free internet access
and DJ workshops for the kidz. But, as usual, the people came out in droves, many we'd
never met before, to express their disgust at the police's behaviour, and their support
for the project.
