Hi all and welcoming about 40 new subscribers to this list from the Anarchist bookfair and elsewhere
We've had a very busy period lately mostly through supporting the Hackney Alliance to Defend Public Services, helping to organise the rally in September and Lobby of the Council in October and producing the Bulletin. HSN supporters are working to keep the Hackney Alliance open and democratic and pushing it out into the local community with local meetings and groups in all wards in Hackney.

Hi all
The next monthly general meeting of HSN is on Tuesday 22nd June, 7.30 at the MOTH Club on Valette Street in Hackney.
Following a large meeting HSN held last month at 195 Mare Street, those there decided that as well as continuing to be a network of those who are fighting for fundamental change, we needed to be a group that instead of just circulating news by producing the Hackney Heckler and via the website and Facebook, became a group that provided real solidarity to those taking action and a group that initiates action to.
