Tuesday, 11 September 2012. Grow Heathrow, grow. If there's one thing politicians are really good at, it's doing the very opposite of what they said they'd do before you voted for them: no, no, we wont raise tuition fees - definitely not. The NHS? Safe as houses, mate. Now the same seems to be true of the third runway at Heathrow; what was once promised off the cards is squarely on again. But not if. Since March 2010 - making sure they don't pull any fast ones. This weekend they're. Links to this post.

Thursday, 13 December 2012. Waste of Space at the 491. What happens to buildings when their owners stop using them? Two photographers explore the use and misuse of space in an exhibition at the 491 — a. Facing eviction. Words: Vyvian Raoul. Waste of Space is an exhibition by Adrian Nettleship. We asked them about the project, the themes it explores and the significance of Leytonstone. Is the exhibition a reaction to the recent criminalisation of squatting? I put the Occupy and Explore.

El naco libre: Something for nothing culture
http://vyvianraoul.blogspot.com/2013/03/something-for-nothing-culture.html
Tuesday, 19 March 2013. Something for nothing culture. On Sunday afternoon, we held a swap shop in Sanford's. Communal area. The idea was simple: trade in your old stuff for new old stuff. People brought along clothes, books, music, dvds and all manner of assorted ephemera. The only rule? No cash must change hands. Because with my tracky top, I also got a little kindness - and charity never taketh away so much as it giveth. Money connects strangers as strangers; a swap connects strangers as friends.

Friday, 26 April 2013. The best people for the job. It is not the man who has too little, but the man who craves more, who is poor.". I want my leaders to be the best people for the job", said a friend to me recently, over a Jamaican lager on one of the first sunny evenings of Spring, in another friend's back yard. On the kind of evening that can't help but fill you with optimism, a cloud suddenly formed in my mind. His presidential salary is about $108,000 per annum, but he donates 90% (mostly to progra...

Wednesday, 3 July 2013. UnFunFair by Simon Tyszko. There's a whole heap of madness going on in most people's minds, most of the time, isn't there? Unlike everyone else, however, artist Simon Tyszko has the good sense to set it free, run with it, and allow his wildest thoughts to become touchable. Like the full-sized.

http://vyvianraoul.blogspot.com/2013/04/mr-hollywood.html
Wednesday, 10 April 2013. It was with intrigue that I read Mike Weatherley MP's recent comments about the squatters on the Grand Parade:. This is yet another example of middle-class, well- educated layabouts creating a mess at society’s expense when they should be hard at work like the rest of us.”. I was intrigued as to how Mike considers. To be 'like the rest of us'? After all, how many of us - as Mike does when he goes to work for the.

Friday, 18 January 2013. Waste of Space @ The 491.

And had the government's plans to criminalise squatting. In Leytonstone. A community centre run by volunteers, with open access and regular classes for local people, that receives no government funding, its occupants are facing eviction. Links to this post.

Friday, 22 June 2012. Cabaret, burlesque, vaudeville – all sorts of cirque, in short – have never been as popular down old London Town as they are today. Which obviously means there's a lot of horribly amateur sh. T knocking about - masquerading as masquerade, getting its nipple tassels all in a tangle. The Double R Club. Is different though, very different indeed. Themed around David Lynch's Twin Peaks, it's as surreal as it is macabre. When I went, the headliner was Mat Fraser. Links to this post.
