'Hori-Zone': G8 Rural Convergence Space, Stirling
Posted 15:58 27 June 2005: Please come to help set up as soon as possible! The Hori-zone is an autonomous, convergence space at Borrowmeadow Farm, FK7 7SQ, Stirling: open from 1st - 9th July.
It is a zone of self-organisation, horizontal decision making, ecology and autonomy in action. It is a radical campsite in resistance to the G8. It is space where people can organize in an open and participatory way, inviting all to take hold of their own lives and take a part in the creation of their own futures.
The site will be organised into autonomous"neighbourhoods". Each neighbourhood will strive for self-sufficiency, in both political and practical terms, but will also contribute to the running and well-being of the entire site.
The convergence space is less than one mile east from the city centre on the banks of the River Forth near Stirling Albion football club at Forth Bank Stadium, just off the A91: see map at www.g8convergence2005.org.
Once you are in Stirling simply follow the signs to the Forth Bank Stadium, and you will soon see signs to HORI-ZONE.
There will be frequent pick-ups in the Convergence space minibuses from the Stirling train and bus station. Limited shuttles will also run from Edinburgh and Glasgow. There is some car parking next to the site, and only limited on-site parking. The best way to get there is by bus or train.

Police Review: magazine cartoon - "In staggeringly poor taste"
from J4J campaign, 18 November 2008: We would imagine that, in the midst of the inquest into the death of Jean Charles de Menezes, publications aimed at and widely read by serving police officers would show greater sensitivity in the way they talk about fatal shootings by the police. But evidently not. The magazine "Police Review", in its 14 November edition, decided that the introduction of new rules preventing firearms officers from conferring after a shooting was best illustrated by this appalling cartoon. more
