Hello all,
I've just finished getting some publicity for the bookfair printed.
These include:

If you can help distribute these please drop me a line with your 
address letting me know how many of each you want and I'll mail them 
out to you as soon as possible.

Also if you do a magazine or news letter please think about including

Press Release:

The seventh Manchester Radical Bookfair takes place from 
12.00noon-5.00pm on Saturday 30th April at the volunteer run Basement 
bookshop and exhibition space at 24 Lever Street in central 
Manchester.

"The idea is to promote radical DIY and anarchist politics in 
Manchester", says David one of the organisers. "As a city Manchester 
has a tradition of radical politics and we're drawing on that history. 
The bookfair is a celebration of people doing things for themselves 
and 
a refreshing change to the electioneering of political parties".

The bookfair will include stalls from a number of radical groups and 
campaigns, as well as radical publishers, booksellers and 
distributors.

"The Basement is an ideal venue as it completely run by volunteers. It 
offers a vegan café, selling a variety of hot and cold food and fair 
trade teas and coffees, and free internet access when people want to 
take a break from browsing the stalls and chatting to the 
stallholders".

The event is part of a series of anarchist events taking place in 
Manchester over May Day Bank Holiday weekend.

On Sunday 1st May London based anarchist punk band CONFLICT play a 
rare 
date in Manchester as part of a May Day in Manchester Bank Holiday 
Festival at Jilly's Rockworld on Oxford Street. There is talk of a 
radical picnic and there will be a special edition of Under the 
Pavement, Manchester's radical radio show, broadcast from 9.00pm until 
11.00pm on Monday 2nd May on south Manchester's ALL FM 96.9  community 
radio station.
