Broken Barnet: "Sweets Way: another round of evictions, another occupation - and a visit from Russell Brand"


Link to Mrs Angry

"Greetings, friends from the MoD. Maybe use a proxy server, in future - slightly more discreet."


"As you will know, Mrs Angry has a pet theory about the curious, seemingly unstoppable sequence of extraordinary events, here in Broken Barnet: one that depends on a psycho-geographical interpretation of the world, charged with the power of a legacy our Tory politicians would rather deny, and destroy.

"Our history, and our heritage - [it is] the story of the people who have lived here, and left something that survives and defies, somehow, the new order of things in this borough: the selling of our land into bondage to profit, a hostage to market forces, and the easy prey of private development.

"The small rebellions which occur, from time to time, seem to take place in strategic points of the map of our borough. West Hendon, caught between Watling Street and the Welsh Harp: the occupation of the People's Library, Margaret Thatcher House, on the road that cuts across from Barnet to Finchley: the downfall of Brian Coleman, the occupation of the Bohemia, on the Great North Road ... and now on the same route, the evictions, and the occupation, of Sweets Way in Whetstone."
