Some Images of a support action for those arrested at DESi Actions London Tken Her in Sheffield on the 12.09.03 at West bar Police Staion..
The Insurrection of a Million Minds
"We fell in love in the wreckage, shouted out songs in the uproar, danced joyfully in the heaviest shackles they could forge; we smuggled our stories through the gauntlets of silence, starvation, and subjugation, to bring them back to life again and again as bombs and beating hearts; we built castles in the sky from the ruins of hell on earth. Accepting no constraints from without, we countenanced none within ourselves, either, and found that the world opened before us like the petals of a rose"

How about this as an action - with the purpose of getting some coverage in
> the local media of the DSEi arms fair - and attempts to shut down protests
> against it. (And also of demonstrating solidarity with protesters in
> London.)
>
> Turning up at West Bar police station, and asking to be arrested under the
> terrorism act. Because I am actively opposed to the arms fair, and if it's
> a terrorist act for demonstrators in London to demonstrate against it, then
> I must be guilty of terrorist acts in the same way.
>
> I can do a press release for this - other than this, I think it would be
> just a case of showing up. (If there are any creative visual ideas - then
> great - but just showing up as people will work.)
>
> Assuming I can recruit one of two other people I propose doing it at 11.30
> on Friday - meeting outside main entrance of West Bar police station. (And
> of course, if others want to do it at a different time - or some other
> variant - then great!) Oh - and I'd like a "ground rule" to be no
> aggression towards the police (or anyone else).

> Best wishes, and peace,
