Occupy Tunbridge Wells Update!

On Wednesday the 30th, in solidarity with the day of national action, we set up our occupation site at St Johns Church as you drive in to Tunbridge Wells through Southborough.

 

It was a wet and extremely blowy night.

 

We met the Church Warden last night, who happened to be a very convivial chap, the following morning we met the Vicar, who seemed to somewhat sympathy with our cause, however in the last hour, at apprx 12:30 midday today (being Thursday) the Police have shown up, although the Police have been wonderfully friendly, I do believe that they perceive that there may be an issue with regards to us remaining on this site.

 

It turns out that they said that they were notified by the Vicar which somewhat surprized us as he seemed to show an interest in taking part in a general assembly, However one cannot rush to judgement as nnobody knows what kind of pressure he may be under, or may have been put under; Possibly.

    Well done everyone, you are very brave and committed. It is wonderful to provide a voice for all the people who are struggling but don’t know how to make themselves heard. Keep up the good work.
