In response to ever decreasing numbers of users and posts and increasing technical difficulties, the members of the Nottingham Indymedia collective are considering shutting the site down for some months, possibly forever.
We would be doing this to see whether interest in the site can be galvanised or whether its useful lifespan has come to an end.
We would welcome any input into this process.

‘Spannered’ : A book from www.spanneredbooks.com

‘Spannered’ tells the story of one huge party weekend in 90’s Bristol, dragging the reader from squatted warehouses to dodgy pubs, confused front-rooms and everywhere in-between. It’s a story about being part of a crew, about friendship and dancing, and about the power of music to move us on a fundamental level.

There are 12 exclusive B&W illustrations from Bristol street and fine artists, and it is available in paperback or ebook formats.

It’s been described as:

“A vivid and lucid account of the urban squat party experience from the inside… this is the real deal… Like a pumped up and glorious U.K. version of Hunter S. Thompson’s ‘Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas’… At times hilarious, occasionally scary, this little novella captures succinctly the feelings of spirited rebelliousness, euphoric tenderness, and crazed abandon of the underground party scene” (Chris Liberator),

“…an intense and accurate portrayal of the free party scene in the UK in the mid-90’s and contains some of the best depictions of raves that I’ve ever read…” (Freepartypeople.wordpress.com),

and

“…Its evocative descriptions will echo with anybody who has been to free parties anywhere or anytime then or since. It’s all there – the highs, the lows, the intense friendships, the casualties, the transformation of some derelict zone into a temporary playground. And of course the music…” (history-is-made-at-night.blogspot.com)

You can find sample chapters, examples of the twelve B&W illustrations, and more at www.spanneredbooks.com, and you can buy it from a range of radical bookshops (www.spanneredbooks.com/stockists) or direct from the publishers (www.spanneredbooks.com/shop).

Jason Parkinson, NUJ member who took the case to the Court of Appeal said: “This ruling to overturn the Crown Court’s decision to grant the Dale Farm production order sends a very clear message to all police forces that these wide-ranging fishing trips will not be accepted by the UK courts and that we will not be forced into to role of unwilling agents of the state. We are not there as evidence gatherers to fill police intelligence databases with hours of material on activists or protestors, we are journalists and we are there to report the news and keep the public informed.

“In the last 18 months, every time one of these orders have been served it has put journalists in greater danger while trying to report on public order situations. I know this because I have been threatened and assaulted by people claiming my material will be used by the police. I am very happy to see Judge Moses has recognised the impact these orders have had on the safety and impartiality of all journalists and has made sure any future production order applications must take this into account, as was clearly not the case this time round.”
