1. FREE EXCHANGE OF ART AND HUMOUR OR HOLLOW LAUGHTER? 25 MEMBERS OF AN ART/THEATRE GROUP WHICH HAS IRISH MEMBERS ARRESTED SPURIOUSLY IN ITALY.
Spacecraft, an Irish Theatre, group had three members working with the Publix whatyacallit theatre group who have been spuriously arrested in Italy. The three are all ok as of now and did not get arrested. We filmed this entire theatre group through the whole protest process and hopefully our film which we will send to their solicitors will turn their persecutors into a laughing stock.
They will mobilise theatre professionals and satirists in Ireland against this tomorrow at 4pm outside the Italian embassy. Culchies against Capitalism recently called into existence and made famous by Cathy D. will be sending a few friends of Mr. Bouve along to see what is happening. Ph. 014923907. or 01-8560233.Both Dublin Numbers.

P.S. I'm sure everyone understands the importance of this, please spread the word, we need to know a.s.a.p the whereabouts of this man. The Department of Foreign Affairs appear to be on their toes now about Joe Moffat who has been in Jail in Italy since early Sunday morning 22nd July. A visit from sundry members of Globalise Resistance, Sinn Fein, JoesGirlfriend, Gluaiseacht, and some Journalists seems to have woken them up. Joe didn't have any confirmation of his arrest conveyed to the outside world for three days. He is ok as of now according to his lawyer and the Irish Embassy and the Dept of Foreign Affairs. For more news on Joe check out Examiner, Irish Times, Phoenix New Issue, Star, Sun and Mirror. Irish editions that is. Dated 3rd Aug. www.ireland.com

4. DEPT OF FOREIGN AFFAIRS
The Department seem to have copped on that the silly season and the Northern Irish Situation have not stopped the world from revolving. Likewise the TV licence fee heads. They sent no cameras to Genoa. They are starting to recover from the embarrasment. Will they be there at the embassy and Dept of Foreign Affairs tomorrow or will they be watching 'The Wrong Box' on Carlton Cinema at 5pm. That's if they aren't waiting for 'The Weakest Link' on BBC2 at 5.15.
