Just wanted to let you know about Big Fish Little Fish. It's a new Family Rave that takes place at the Effra Social in Brixton once a month - they started in Sept and both the Sept and October party sold out a couple of weeks before the event. November's party is on the 16th and the headline DJ is Mixmaster Morris.


We have a large room for dancing with bubble machine, oil wheel lights and glitter cannons, a baby/chill out room with tents and playmats and a craft room where older kids can make things, get temp tattoos and help themselves to free smoothies and Bear nibbles.


The music level is kept low enough to be safe for babies' ears. What sets us apart from 'baby discos' is that we have credible DJs and a music policy that encompasses different genres but with a good percentage of old-school rave tunes (for example: Voodoo Ray, On a Ragga Tip, The Sun Rising, Promised Land). Our DJs also play a bit of ska, 70s funk, pop, drum and bass and hip hop. DJs who have performed include Nihal, Chefal from Rinse FM and DJ Food.


You can buy tickets from our website - www.bigfishlittlefishevents.co.uk

We're also launching in North London later this month - Sunday 24th November at the Dome, Tufnell Park with DJs Si Begg and Miss JT (Secret Garden Party) - if you've got any friends with kids who live that way and you think would enjoy it, please let them know.


Thanks,

Saturday went BRILLIANTLY - thanks to all ED Forum members who came.


Mixmaster Morris did a space-themed set for us which you can hear here: http://www.mixcloud.com/nubient/mixmaster-morris-big-fish-little-fish-brixton/


Captain Cookie made robot masks with the kids in the Happy Monkey Craft Room and the young ravers enjoyed free Bear nibbles and Happy Monkey smoothies.


The new head chef at the Effra Social ran a hot dog stall with large and small versions of classic, veggie and even chocolate hotdogs.


Hope you can join us on Dec 14th for our Christmas Panto themed party with DJs JC Mighty and Joe Muggs (Mixmag, Sound of the Cosmos etc).


Tickets available here http://www.wegottickets.com/bigfishlittlefishproductions

We say it's aimed at families with kids aged `10 and under. The older ones really enjoy the craft room as well as the main room.


We've put tickets on sale for Jan 18th, Feb 15th, March 15th and April 12th now - some truly great DJs lined up: Raf Daddy, Mark Force (Bugz in the Attic), Jonny Trunk and Frank Tope (Rooty).

    • Direct link to joint statement : https://thehaguegroup.org/meetings-bogota-en/?link_id=2&can_id=2d0a0048aad3d4915e3e761ac87ffe47&source=email-pi-briefing-no-26-the-bogota-breakthrough&email_referrer=email_2819587&email_subject=pi-briefing-no-26-the-bogot_-breakthrough&&   No. 26 | The Bogotá Breakthrough “The era of impunity is over.” That was the message from Bogotá, Colombia, where governments from across the Global South and beyond took the most ambitious coordinated action since Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza began 21 months ago. Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.
    • Having just been to Co-op to redeem a 50p off Co-op members' card voucher on an item that is now 50p more than it was last week, Tesco can't come soon enough
    • Surely that depends on the amount.  It can be quite piffling.
