Anarchists sabotage railway signalling in Bristol

Have to agree about the Bristol comments though. Bless all the bristles for being all defensive but the place is a backwater.
 
It's england's sixth most populous city, ahead of Manchester. Hardly a 'backwater'.
Bollocks:-

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_Manchester with a population of 2.6 million Manchesteri/ˈmænɛstər/ is a city and metropolitan borough in Greater Manchester, England with an estimated population of 498,800 in 2010

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bristol with an estimated population of 433,100 for the unitary authority in 2009,[3] and a surrounding Larger Urban Zone (LUZ) with an estimated 1,070,000 residents in 2007.[4] It is England's sixth and the United Kingdom's eighth most populous city,

so we can add a false sense of its own importance to the charge list as well? Compare like with like and Manchester is considerably larger than Bristol which is a minor city on the way to Cornwall/ Cardiff. Some notable figures have left Bristol- the only known industry was the slave trade and in recent years second or third tier financial services. Culturally they have a few not very good clubs catering to ex private school thicko's who attend the third rate university and a few copy cat music sub genres.
 
Are all SPGBers stone bonkers or is it just the ones who post on urban?

Sheffield's got better culture than Bristol by the way. And we've got more trees per capita than any other city in Europe :p

Agree about Sheffield. Am not a member of SPGB - by the way. As a SPEWer, Spiney, you should watch out for those glass houses.

If Massive Attack, Roni size, smith and mighty and tricky aren't copy cats then I am missing something. Never heard of the others.
