sunderland no protest but!!! I did'nt think there would a protest but I thought I'd have a wonder down to Sunderland with the little one, do a bit shopping and check out the Org at the same time, the doors are still shut, so that's go to be about 6 months nobody's seen them open, did'nt cross the road to see if the light's were on though. I will try to get to the Northumbria Idle Org next week to see if anything's going on there.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! They likely all An Hero'd in the basement. No doubt faced with the prospect of being raided by Shadow night and day since his b& from the internetz.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! ORG'S CLOSED DUE TO... IT BEING SHITE And yes, we could do with an update on the Northumbria idle org's level of failness. I think this was the most recent recon: http://forums.whyweprotest.net/281-europe/northumbria-ideal-org-flyer-raid-56556/ Can you also fint out what that statue is in the park grounds, which happens to look upon the the fail org. I noticed it whilst browsing on Google Earth). It has the Borough of Gateshead emblem on the plinth but I don't know who the figure is and what it is for (google turned up nothing).
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! I LOL'ed too. Excellent news from Sunderland. Thanks for the update. Fail cult is, er... Scientology.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Wow excellent news Charlie so the doors have been closed for a good while now. Is this a permanent close or are they planning there move?
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Planning to move? You mean the one person manning Sunderland Org going and sitting in a back room of the Gateshead care home? Wow.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Oh, and- http://forums.whyweprotest.net/15-media/new-ideal-orgs-open-2010-2011-a-65691/#post1228836 I guess not then.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Well my wife went shopping in Sunderland today, guess what doors closed and no lights on LOL.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Veg. texted me yesterday from Sunderland the doors still shut on the org LOL. I was attending a meeting with a disability charity in gateshead when they started talking about mental health issues so I ended up having a good old chat with them about the scilons, there ideas on mental health and front groups especially as the charity are looking to form partnerships with others.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Still closed eh. I think maybe their current aggressive marketing strategy needs a rethink.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! LOL nice one sponge veg. did mention he was thing off sticking some flyers on the front door but that would be illegal I think.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! The missing (or boarded up) letterbox is a particularly nice touch. Could this cult reek any more strongly of "death spiral", if they tried? Thanks for this encouraging news.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! cheers charlie, haven't been in town for a while. good to know it's still a betamax operation
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! i'm kinda saddened by this. it's awesome yelling profanities at a building and the people in it. but now it's dead.. and the next org is out of short reach.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Dunno, but an empty org is a good thing so long as there is no raw meat walking into the place. It costs them money to keep these places running and that means some of their money is not harming people elsewhere. If you picket them then they might start staffing the place again and we don't want that.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Hunting through some doc's I found something that puzzled me about the address. PublicAccess v7.4 @ Sunderland City Council: Property Details Church Of Scientology College Third Floor Church Of Scientology College 51 Fawcett Street Sunderland SR1 1SA (old pic)
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Yeah, I mean we know they use(d) the other floors... Could just be a mistake?
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Scientology's been pissing off the makem's (Sunderland Folk) for nearly 30 years TRUE FAX.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! i'll 2nd that. they first pissed me off 20 yrs ago when they were following my girlfriend to college an stuff. at that time protest tactics were of no importance to me so i ended up forcing my way into the upstairs to threaten the guy who had been hassling her. all he kept asking was who i was .lol. i said it didn't matter who i was, and delivered him no direct threat, but by my tone of voice and the way i was 2 inches from his face saying he WILL leave her alone, i think he got the message. not great tactics i know but i was 18 and it DID have the desired effect. if anyone has any pics of staff that woulda worked there in the years 89/90, i would be most interested to identify the guy
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! you probably put him in ethics or something like that for a wile lol
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! My better half had the honour yesterday of checking out the org. STILL CLOSED
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! I wonder how long one of those stickers would last on the door? Or even a nice sign saying 'closed down' Just don't use superglue.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Sunderland update THEY'RE OPEN. Was walking past the org Thursday, they had the door open and a stress test sign outside.
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! Hip Hip Horray! You win "Spot the Sunderland Scilon". Have they fixed that letter box on the door yet or is it still that untidy slot that looks boarded up from the back and unusable?
Re: sunderland no protest but!!! maybe it's nostalgia week there. doing it old school style. thanks for this update wearsideanon. i'll be sure and 'show my face' there more often. how can one resist the pull of the fastest growing religion in the north east?
