Dear listeners, as some of you may know, the breakfast radio show that always gets my vote is the Xfm Breakfast show with lovely Lauren Laverne
(listen in London @ 104.9FM) Mrs. Laverne has recently started a campaign to find London village's favorite Street hero, those people on London's streets who we like and/or fear for their talking and being opinionated and/or loud to the people of our fair city. Following an email from myself to Xfm, the London Village Show received a mighty on-air shout out at breakfast time this morning and it is my hope that all of you good people will make it your business to contact Xfm with your support for Mr. Haw as a hero of London's streets, find a contact form for Lauren on the
Xfm breakfast show webpageAs some of you are doubtless aware, Brian was once again the target of Police action in the early hours of yesterday morning, read all about it at the
BBC's news pages. Read about Brian's protest and the latest events at his pages on
Brain's websiteIf you want to know why the London Village Show cares about Brain Haw's protest, please take the time to listen to him speaking on our show earlier this week. Links to the Podcast can be seen on the right hand side of the
website or in the
post below.
Finally from Brian's
websiteURGENT MESSAGE - ITEMS NEEDED The group of supporters who were staying with Brian had most of their belongings taken away by the police. If you can help out with any of the following items, please take them down to the Square:
sleeping bags and blankets
umbrellas
water
Nokia phone charger
car battery and 12v lead with crocodile clips and waterproof box to hold it.
That's all from me for now. D
