Matilda in Court: some feedback from the case

On Thursday 22nd June Yorkshire Forward took 30 persons unknown who had established a social centre in 111 Matilda Street to the County Court for Trespass. In hearing the case you actually dared to hope at one point that there might be some kind of outcome in Matilda's favour. But as ever the judge sided with the property owners regardless of the arguments put forward and legal technicalities raised. I wasn't able to get notes down of all the arguments made, but hopefully the bits I can recall will give you a small flavour of the case.

Yorkshire Forward, Matilda and the Discurs of Health and Safety

Now that Yorkshire Forward (YF) has put the dispute over using Matilda to escalation it is important to reflect upon their discursive strategy.
The argument used in this mornings attack on the Social Centre is that health and safety in the building was poor.
By putting forward this argument YF is trying to avoid talking about the real issue of the conflict: Who takes part in the development of the city?

9/11 - Loose Change

Loose Change Second Edition, a film about the events of Septemer 11th 2001, has become a net phenomenon — it currently (18th May 2006) holds the 1st, 4th and 26th places on the Google Video top 100 and this is in competion with lots of very short titillation clips (eg Webcam Girls Go Wild) and dubious humour clips (eg funny clips baby fart).

Loose Change is the most popular 9/11 "conspiracy theory" film, no doubt due to its slick graphics, soundtrack and editing — for an amateur movie it is impressive. However it's not the most accurate movie of its type — see the discussion on indybay and the detailed Sifting Through Loose Change — The 9-11 Research Companion.
