Bonfire Night Party - 7.30 pm London Fields, E8
Oct 15 2006
Join Class War for their annual Guy Fawkes night party on Sunday 5th November in London Fields, Hackney.
Please bring your effigies to burn on the bonfire - last year Tony Blair, Hackney mayor Jules Pipe and Prince Charles all went up in flames.

The incident actually occured about 45 minutes before the CW event.
Those of us sitting outside the pub could see a woman on the floor, and later an ambulance came into the park.
Oddly although cops told us there had been a serious incident earlier in the evening, and Ms Booth was given a crime number by the police, she has been refused compensation by the Criminal Injuries Board as they are insisting the incident was an accident.

couldn't be anything to do with the fact they have to pay out to victims of unsolved serious crimes could it?

Little fuckers.
Where I live, the "setting off fireworks in the lift" season is now upon, I'm afraid. Or chucking them down the rubbish shutes.

There's a 10,000 euro fine for possession of fireworks in Ireland, can't imagine many of the kids around here having that much cash on them though.

I dunno if I actually want them to be banned, but if they were, late October / early Novemeber would be a fuck of a lot more pleasant.

Or thrown at you in the street after having lewd sexual comments made at you, only to then have the "concerned" on-looking workmen have nothing to say about the incident other than "hey sexy lady, you're beautiful, how you doing?*", and then 20 seconds later have a bunch of men in a van beep at you and call out at you, and then walk up to the bus stop past another guy doing that fucking hissing thing at you.
I blame society.
But I do like fireworks.
*How'd you fucking thing I'm doing you fucking cretinous prick?

Fucking Kids, I was on Primrose Hill and these little shits kept sooting rockets at the crowd, they hit a bloke standing not far from me. I wish I'd put my elbow in the face of the one that was running past me bu I was worried I'd get a kicking from about 20 15 year olds

Tsk tsk , it sure is grim up North/East London.
Fireworks are well boring when used properly, and well irresponsible when used improperly. I can't see the attraction.
