NEW! People's Histreh Newsletter no.1 (Feb 2010) is now online: http://thesparrowsnest.org.uk/peoples_histreh_newsletter_feb_2010.pdf

Come to the Sparrows' Nest anarchist library and archive and celebrate the 20th Anniversary of non-payment of the Poll Tax in England & Wales (following non-registration in 1989 and solid mass non-payment in Scotland). Let's recall the commitment of community campaigns which helped us support each other in non-payment. And take inspiration from the great Poll Tax Riot in London on 31th March 1990 and smaller uprisings in many local areas, not least the 'Robin Hood' invasion of the Council host on the same day as our meeting twenty years ago, the day the 'Community Charge' rate was set in Nottingham. As well as discussion and poems read by an anti-Poll Tax activist we will display books, video and other material from the local anti-Poll Tax campaign.
