il manifesto: Jean Echenoz, virtuose digressioni da Parigi alle rive del fiume Limpopo Non rimanda né alla capitale della street art, né a quel bel cartoncino multistrato sul quale Vladimir Nabokov era solito scrivere: Bristol è semplicemente il cognome del protagonista del romanzo […] The post Jean Echenoz, virtuose digressioni da Parigi alle rive del fiume Limpopo first appeared on il manifesto. Jean Echenoz, virtuosic digressions from Paris to the banks of the Limpopo River It doesn’t send you to the capital of street art, nor to that beautiful multi-layered cardstock on which Vladimir Nabokov used to write: Bristol is simply the surname of the novel's protagonist… [followed by an article about Jean Echenoz] #JeanEchenoz #Paris #theLimpopoRiver #VladimirNabokov #Bristolhttps://ilmanifesto.it/jean-echenoz-virtuose-digressioni-da-parigi-alle-rive-del-fiume-limpopo

British #police arrested several anti-genocide protesters outside HMP #Bristol Prison after demonstrators gathered to mark the second anniversary of the Filton action, displaying signs in support of the activists involved. The protest commemorated Aug. 6, 2024, when six #PalestineAction activists entered Elbit Systems' Filton facility and damaged dozens of drones intended for use by the Israeli occupation military in #Gaza. The demonstration called for the activists' release and condemned Britain's continued military ties with #genocidal #Israel. https://t.me/QudsNen/234365

"Construction work has begun on a railway track running between Bristol and Portishead, which will allow passenger trains to run on the line for the first time in 60 years. The £196m project will create two new stations, at Pill and Portishead, connecting them with Parson Street, Bedminster and Bristol Temple Meads in a 25-minute, hourly service." #Bristolhttps://www.bristol247.com/news-and-features/news/work-begins-on-train-track-between-portishead-and-bristol/

RE: https://mementomori.social/@Auringon_sikio/116978849644048794 The #ITV-series Gone exposes overwhelming matters about the #IntelligenceServices, especially the Finnish #IntelligenceAgency Supo, #Suojelupoliisi. Apparently the #police (at least) in #Bristol and #Bath (who knows if in the rest of #England, too, or even in the whole of #UK!) is lead by #Supo. The logo in the screenshot is the #CoatOfArms of #Finland. So dear World, stop talking about #MI5 and #MI6. About #FBI and #CIA. About #FSB and #Mossad. And start talking about Supo, #JustSaying!

Ylellä näkyvän Gone-sarjan (”Pääepäilty”) kuvitteellisen Bristolin ja Bathin poliisilaitoksen tunnuksessa on jotain kovin tuttua. https://areena.yle.fi/1-77516114

"The land is owned by Winford Parish Council which has said it is not for sale. The airport’s planning consultants have now begun the process of obtaining a compulsory purchase order which would legally force the sale." Disgraceful. #Bristolhttps://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/campaigners-appalled-bristol-airport-moves-11068379

"Elsewhere, Nottingham is the only city that has implemented a workplace parking levy, but the idea is now being explored in other cities too, such as Cardiff and Leeds. In Bristol, around a third of people drive to work, although some of these have to pay for parking already and so would not not be affected by the new levy. Schools, the NHS and other employers could be exempt. In 2025, the former council leader of Nottingham City Council, Graham Chapman, said there was no loss of business in the city when the levy was first introduced, despite threats of companies relocating." #Bristolhttps://www.bristol247.com/news-and-features/news/funds-workplace-parking-levy-transformational-impact/

@wood5y@mastodonapp.uk They have to provide cheap or free public transport before charging for car parks, otherwise people will still drive as it is worth the cost to them. #bristol
