Q&A after

Come to Coventry to this local cafe which is showing Fires and Fascism tonight! See how people are fighting back to create change.

In the film you'll see how locals in Portugal uprooted the highly flammable eucalyptus plantations, among other direct resistance actions to big business, capitalism, and the far right. The monocultures were replaced with trees much more suitable for the region.

Speaking of trees: in the local area, the work by the "Tree Amigos" and the Tree Sanctuary shows amazing community spirit! Come down to talk about what else is going on, and how any fears around the far right can be countered by community action and organisation.

#UK - '#FoodWaste could help our farmers'

Maisie Olah, 22 March 2026

"A Labour MP has said a new weekly food waste recycling service could help #farmers, by turning food waste into #fertiliser.

"Mary Creagh, MP for #Coventry East, said taking food waste out of black bins and putting it 'into #anaerobic digestion to create #digestate fertiliser' will help farmers due to fertiliser prices soaring because of 'conditions in the Middle East'.

"Coventry City Council will introduce a new weekly food waste recycling service for households in September - five months after the government's deadline.

"Twenty-three litre food caddies will be distributed to residents and will be collected five days a week, leaving other bins to be collected on different days of the week."

Domani: Il Cio si allinea a Trump: da Los Angeles 2028 atlete transgender escluse dalle gare femminili

La partecipazione alle Olimpiadi e agli eventi organizzati dal Cio sarà subordinata a un test sul gene Sry, come avviene già per l’atletica leggera, che si farà una volta sola e sarà valido per sempre. Per la presidente Coventry, la decisione garantirà equità, sicurezza e integrità nello sport. A rischiare l’esclusione anche molte atlete intersessuali, come la pugile algerina oro olimpico Imane Khélif

The IOC is aligning with Trump: Athletes transgenderes excluded from women’s competitions from Los Angeles 2028

Participation in the Olympics and events organized by the IOC will be subject to a test for the SRY gene, as is already the case for athletics, which will be carried out once and will be valid forever. For President Coventry, the decision will guarantee fairness, safety and integrity in sport. Many intersex athletes, including Algerian Olympic gold medalist Imane Khelif, are also at risk of exclusion.
