I would ask every supporter of the Palestinians to read and to retweet my detailed account of the High Court and Appeal Court last Friday on Palestine Action proscription.
It explains exactly what happened and how it affects you.

Side view of a single engined light aircraft parked on tarmac facing to the right.
The plane is mostly white, with a black belly, and a thick yellow stripe running along the body, over-laid with the black registration "G-BKAE" on the rear fuselage, the last letter partially obscured by the slightly up-turned wing-tip.
White spats cover the fixed main landing gear, under the wings.
A man with short dark hair and beard, wearing a blue top, can be seen in the cockpit, possibly running an engine test, as the propellor on the nose looks to be slightly blurred.
Black tarmac apron fills the foreground, with a green hangar on the right of the frame in the background, with cars parked behind the plane on the left, with brown brick buildings beyond that.
Flat white sky fills the rest of the frame.

The tail is the same blue, with a larger, yellow, winged Irish harp.
Grey concrete apron fills the frame, with a white, 4 engined jet airliner facing the camera, being pushed backwards by a blue tug in the top right corner, it's right wing stretching across the top of the frame.

"Radar initially confirmed Bob Vylan’s removal with a brief statement on July 2: “Bob Vylan will not be appearing at RADAR Festival this weekend.” But in a new interview on the Two Promoters One Pod podcast, organizer Catherine Jackson-Smith shared that the festival did not want to cancel the group’s headline set.

“It was categorically one of the most horrendous professional discussions I’ve ever had,” she said. “I cannot express clearly enough that I wanted Bob Vylan to perform at our festival. But this was not our decision.”

According to Jackson-Smith, Radar was caught between behind-the-scenes conversations involving the venue, its co-owners AMG and Live Nation, and local authorities. The decision to drop Bob Vylan was presented as an ultimatum: either cancel the band’s appearance or risk losing the entire Saturday program.

“There was not an option for Bob Vylan to step on stage on Saturday; that became apparent at the beginning of the week,” Jackson-Smith explained. “If we continued with Bob Vylan as our headliner, we wouldn’t have the festival happening on Saturday.”"

G-BRGG, Luscombe 8A Silvaire, at Manchester Barton, some time in the 1990s.

#Manchester #Barton #EGCB #Luscombe #Silvaire
#AvGeek #aviation #planespotting #photography

Side view of a high-winged single-engined light aircraft parked on a tarmac apron facing to the left.
The plane is mostly in a bare metal finish, with a pair of blue stripes running along the body, getting narrower as they move to the rear, overlaid with the blue registration "G-BRGG" on the rear fuselage, which is repeated under the left wing.
Another pair of blue stripes adorn the stripes on the spats over the main wheels.
Struts support the wings, connected to the body just above the main gear legs.
Grey tarmac apron fills the foreground, with a row of orange and white traffic cones separating that from muddy grass on the right of the frame.
There are more light aircraft parked on grass in the background, under cloudy grey sky.

Side view of a 3 engined jet airliner with the engines mounted on the rear fuselage, being towed from right to left, turning back to the right again.
The plane is mostly white, with a thin red and blue stripe running along the body, getting wider as it moves rearwards before sweeping up in to the tail.
There is blue "Dan-Air London" text on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "G-BHVT" on the side of the centre intake above the rear fuselage.
There is a white circle on the tail, containing a 4-pointed compass star with a red and white barred flag behind.
The plane is being towed by a low-slung white truck turning towards the right of the screen.
Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with grass either side of a runway in the background leading up to a wide black hangar in the distance.

On This Day 7th July 2001.

Kris Reid, singer and guitarist with the Manchester-based pop-punk band Se7en20, on stage at a free gig in Castlefield Arena, Manchester, 7th July 2001.

A man with short brown hair, wearing a white shirt and khaki pants, playing a black electric guitar and singing into a microphone on a stand in front of him on an open air stage.
The mic stand is obviously set up for someone a little bit taller than him!
Monitor speakers litter the front of the stage, with vertical stacks of speakers and amps in the background.
