Cambridge Copwatch

Police and prison abolitionist group building community defence against police powers in Cambridge!

DM to get involved, or @ us about police in your area.

[Cambridge Copwatch @CambCopwatch]

Knowing your rights and the rights of others during a Stop and Search is a step towards standing in solidarity with one another, and standing up to racist state violence.

Don't walk by! Check-in, inform, and record. Cops don't protect us, we protect each other!

[Trans Liberation Cambridge @TransLibCam]

In doing so, they create an environment of hostility which produces transphobic violence and harassment.

Come and join us to make some noise.

[Trans Liberation Cambridge @TransLibCam]

We are protesting against bad faith actors who distort dialogues of oppression, weaponise white middle and upper class femininity, and aim to make trans lives socially impossible through legal attacks on our basic rights.

[Cambridge Copwatch @CambCopwatch]

Starting in half an hour!

[Cambridge Solidarity Fund 🌱 @SolidarityCam]

Our lovely friends at @CamCommunity and @RedFightback are collaborating on this fantastic biweekly event at Nun's Way Pavilion, bringing hot food and drinks, kids' activities and community-building to King's Hedges and the surrounding area ✨

[Trans Liberation Cambridge @TransLibCam]

This community believes in the right to resist.

Protest for trans lives outside the Cambridge Union, 17th November, 7.30pm.

One cop car idling on Cameron Road - not unusual but take care out there

[Cambridge Copwatch @CambCopwatch]

DM or message us for advice or updates.

URGENT: Nun's Way crawling with cops, dog handlers and a helicopter.

If you are around the area and are safe enough to see what's happening, interve and offer support and solidarity to anyone currently on the other end of police violence, please do.

[Cambridge Solidarity Fund 🌱 @SolidarityCam]

We're sorry to have to restrict access in this way – we really wish we could help everybody all the time, but we do need a small number of rules so that we can distribute our limited funds as fairly as possible.

In solidarity,
Team CSF xx

[Cambridge Solidarity Fund 🌱 @SolidarityCam]

For example, if you applied in August, you will not be able to apply in September (this round) but you will be able to apply in October (next round).

[Cambridge Solidarity Fund 🌱 @SolidarityCam]

A message from the CSF team:

We will be reopening for applications on Monday 12th September. However, we've also changed our applications policy, so if you received money in August, you will not be able to apply for this round.

[Cam GRT Solidarity @cam_grt_sol]

.@camcitco in 2021 you "stood in solidarity" with the GRT community in opposition to the racist PCSC Bill.

Is it true that you have gone back on your word and collaborated with police to enforce it?

[Cambridge Copwatch @CambCopwatch]

More police activity reported around Chesterton, Newmarket Road and East Road today.

[Cambridge Copwatch @CambCopwatch]

Big police presence on East Road today.

If you see the cops stopping and antagonising someone, step in, ask if they're okay and if they'd like you to stay with them, let them know their rights, and record the police.

The largest category of second jobs and/or business interests recorded by Cambridgeshire police officers was property rental and/or management, which accounted for 64 of those recorded #Cambridge

[Cambridge Copwatch @CambCopwatch]

MANY cops outside and inside Cambridge Station, and a van parked outside. Potentially waiting for someone.

Don't walk by if you see cops stopping someone: Check-in with the person, let them know their rights, record the police.

@ us if you see anything.

There’s no better time to join your local copwatching group:
@MCRcopwatch @CamdenCopWatch @LambethCopwatch @BristolCopwatch @CopwatchSthwrk @THcopwatch @NewhamCopWatch @CambCopwatch @BarnetCopwatch @LewishamCopW

[Cambridge Copwatch @CambCopwatch]

Join @cam_grt_sol this Thursday 21st July, 5PM outside the Guildhall, taking a stand against the British state's continued violence against the GRT community, and demanding transit sites, authorised stopping places, and NO EVICTIONS.

[Cam GRT Solidarity @cam_grt_sol]

Cambridge City Council keep paying lip service to Traveller rights, but there are still evictions happening in the city. We can't let Cambridge see events like those in Milton Keynes last week.

Protest outside the City Council meeting, Guildhall 5pm July 21st - please share!
