Anarchists from West End often went into the mall to have fun on the soapbox on friday evenings, during the 80’s.

  1. As distastefull as it is to promote Ciaron, his booklet on this campaign is the best one published.

    (this is the best history as it has lots of photos of me)

    At this time the West End anarchist’s ran Kropotkins cafe, opposite the West End primary school, which was the organising and social centre behind this campaign. Got an article about Kropotkins brewing at the moment which will appear on Our West End sooner or later..

    At the time we had weekly campaign meetings of up to 50 people which made us the biggest and most active left wing network in Brisbane.
