I doubt if Robin Hood would have stood for this act of masonic whoreship...so i propose we have a mass 9/11 leafletting day in the city centre..maybe Broadmarsh.Anyone up for it?

[Andrew Johnson]

I would stand outside Broadmarsh and do it - they tend to come and move you on if you are "in their property" - whatever the leafletting bye laws....

I agree this is a gross infringement of peoples ability to organise.

Here is the flyer:



Ring up the council now and tell the other person on the end of the phone they are working for an authoritatian orgainsation.

This has given me an idea. I think I will send the council some leaflets - by post - that's not prohibited....

The true test of this is to get the permit to leaflet. Then you can say to people you have the 'backing' of the Council to do it!

It would be interesting to know also what the process is, how you get vetted and how much the permit may cost - is it free for political leafleting etc.

Test the system!

We have the same thing in leeds. The council have invoked the Clean neighbourhoods and environment act 2005.

The above link has all the info you need in pdfs on the right.

As far as I can tell you have to pay £75 per badge, each distributor must have a badge.

There must be some loopholes in this. What if you print a price on your leaflets so they are not 'free' printed material.
