Hello friends, comrades, anonymous homies

13/2/26

Yesterday 52 police officers broke into our friends' home, kidnapping all 10 of them and their dogs.

URGENT NOTE: If anyone has any experience with getting dogs back from the police after arrest we're having a lot of difficulty, and time is really of the essence, please get in touch <3

All this in a violent attempt to find evidence for conspiracy charges, charges that they haven't been able to stick to anyone as our friends are released one by one WITHOUT charge. Despite this, the harshest possible bail conditions have been given, which have completely uprooted everyone's lives.

Aside from the profound affect on peoples physical and mental health, the actions of yesterday and the conditions imposed will have a huge financial impact on our friends. Vehicles have been impounded, phones and shoes stolen. The bail conditions prevent people from returning to get their personal belongings, they also mean that some people won't be able to attend work until bail is lifted.

It is very unlikely that anyone will be able to access the belongings of those arrested now that the building has been taken. Irreplaceable personal items, thousands of pounds worth of work equipment, clothes, everything is gone.

Squatting is legal. This is state repression. If you're already here then I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir.

If you can't donate but you know people involved and can help in any way please offer. Whether it's clothes, shoes, snacks... a cake?! a cute drawing idk, just remember to respect privacy and allow people space.

Love and rage to all you beautiful people.

Peace x
