    Hopefully big and hold enough to make a statement.

    Well can see how they barely had time to get it sorted. Must have taken them months to get that made

    is there anything on the other side? anything about the manifesto, the group, the aims of the protest, the plans for challenging ownership, contact details to get involved? anything at all? or is it just that?

    Luke's comment about throwing tins of food was a joke. A clear and obvious joke. Jokes, by their very definition, do not represent the views of the author nor do they influence people to act in a certain way.

    The Conway Out Facebook group has mobilised and motivated supporters, a minority of whom have have committed vandalism and antisocial behaviour. Without the group these incidents would not have happened. The response from the Facebook group should have been clear and unequivocal in its condemnation of this behaviour, but it wasn't, the message was ambiguous and concerned only with self preservation. By forming a protest group but displaying such weak leadership they shoulder a lot of responsibility which they are clearly unable to handle.

    Agreed. As a leader you should be aware that your words carry consequences and jokes can occasionally be misconstrued as a rallying cry, Luke doesn't seem to have figured that out yet.

    Luke seems to have now given way to someone else.

    I also hear a group of members of the bummers club will sit side by side with alternate posters from each of the 'radical movements' on show

    Yes he just written a post on the page now saying that he's stepping back as the 'public face'.

    No mention of any new owners or anything.

    Someone else has been doing the comms most of this week and in the last 20 minutes he's said "I will be removing myself from the public view".

    They didn't look bad actually. I do hope BFC got royalties for the n number of club badges used.
