Manchester NO2ID will be sponsoring a dystopian film screening at the FAB Café on Portland Street, Manchester. The film will probably be Terry Gilliam's excellent vision of a bureaucratic database state gone mad, "Brazil".

Join us to relax, enjoy the film and ask any questions you may have about the NO2ID campaign against identity cards and the Database State.

We'll be running a Saturday afternoon stall in St. Anne's Square to raise awareness among the public and engage people in discussion about the National Identity Register. We'll be encouraging people to take the NO2ID Pledge, and collecting signatures for the NO2ID petition to keep people in touch with the campaign.

Manchester NO2ID will be holding our monthly meeting in the upstairs function room of the Town Hall Tavern, Tib Lane, Manchester. Sadly, this venue is not wheelchair-accessible; please contact us if you have accessibility needs.

At our monthly meetings we discuss the state of the NO2ID campaign, what we've been up to recently and where we're going in future. Everyone is welcome, newcomer or not, curious or committed.
