Lille, France: Support action to the blocking of Nantes’ ring-road
At this very moment in Lille [Saturday 9th January] a day/evening is being held of support to the ZAD of Notre Dame des Landes and the inhabitants that face trial this Wednesday 13th January. More than 100 people gathered in the General Assembly decided to show their support to Nantes protesters that are currently blocking Cheviré bridge.
We therefore left in procession upto the motorway where we unfurled a banner. This symbolic and spontaneous action also testifies our determination in organising ourselves, to prevent by all means the evictions on the ZAD.
Vinci clear off, resistance and sabotage!
Banner translation: Against the Ayrault-port of Notre Dame Des Landes. Vinci, out of our lives.
[Jean-Marc Ayrault was the former Mayor of Nantes and subsequently Prime Minister]

Toulouse, France: Flaming barricades in support of the ZAD
On Saturday 9th January 2016 at 9am, the motorway slip-road to Toulouse airport, as well as the tram, were blockaded with help from flaming barricades.
A trial of the inhabitants of the ZAD of Notre-Dame-des-Landes will take place on the 13th January in Nantes, that will surely result in an eviction decision accompanied by day-to-day fines. It’s everyday that tenants, squatters, Roma, undocumented immigrants and others experience this state violence through the intermediary of its judges, cops and bailiffs, who decide who should live where and how.
On Saturday 9th January 2016 at 9am, the motorway slip-road to Toulouse airport, as well as the tram, were blockaded with help from flaming barricades. Two tram lines were closed across Toulouse for an hour.
As long as these evictions continue, as long as this shit world exists, we will remain determined to attack the incessant flow of merchandise, passengers and workers, indispensable to the proper functioning of capitalism; and this despite the state of emergency.
There’s no smoke without tyre!
