Three Colts Lane Eviction

At 10.30 this morning (16 march 2010) high court bailiffs arrived at the newly opened Rampart building, warrant in hand, and only days after they lost the court case. The residents inside repeatedly asked to be shown the warrant but to no avail. Legal observers outside were threatened with violence, abuse and crowbars, and were told that it was none of their business. The angle grinder came out and the residents were given 10 seconds to open up, which of course they didn't, so the cutting started and the door was soon forced open. The people inside grabbed what they could and were manhandled out of the building. It seems the Rampart library is now lost.
A sad day for book lovers.

rampART library is not dead!
The library was saved thanks to some members of the collective and assorted helpers who dragged themselves out of bed early Friday morning to rescue it. It has found a home at 195 Mare Street. Thanks to everyone who helped.

RampART is not Dead!
Same shit, different day. RampART will continue. Thanks to everyone who turned up. I love that someone had come to paint the front of the building and remove the graffiti only to find bailiffs at the door.
