CATHOLIC GROUP SEEKS FACTORY EVICTION
The Parish priest of St Patrick's in Redfield, Bristol, Rev. Gregory
Grant, is the Chairman of PG Group, the body which is currently
seeking an eviction order against the occupiers of the Factory Social
Centre in Cave Street, Bristol. He is also the Chairman of the Grant
Bradley Trust, the charitable body which benefits from the profits
made by PG group and which claims to have as one of its aims "the
relief of poverty and sickness by the provision of affordable housing
and associated amenities for persons in need."
THE PROFIT-DRIVEN FATHER GREGORY GRANT
The PG group and its associated Trust were set up by Fr. Gregory and
the late Peter Bradley. PG is a development company, doing up
properties around Bristol for profit and then giving a proportion of
the profits to the Grant Bradley Trust. Although PG Group claims to
be providing affordable homes, the properties on the PG website
http://www.thepggroup.co.uk/home/ certainly aren't. PG's
developments are contributing to the gentrification of areas of
Bristol like St Pauls where the Factory is situated, pricing those on
low incomes out of both purchase and rental markets. In other words,
the work of PG Group is making poverty worse, not better, at least in Bristol.
WHO WOULD JESUS EVICT - quite possibly violently - AND EXPLOIT?
Evicting an established and community-oriented project and making
money at the expense of the poor don't seem like very Christian
activities (Who would Jesus evict or exploit?), still less something
a parish priest should be so intimately involved with.

COURT HEARING THIS WEEK
The eviction court hearing date was brought forward with just a few
days notice from 31 October to this Wednesday, again not a very
charitable or 'Christian' action. The Factory is organising a march
and demonstration from midday on Wednesday 26 October. Get there to
support if you possibly can. Full details:

Fear not therefore: for there is nothing covered that shall not be
revealed; and nothing hid that shall not be made known. What I tell
you in darkness, that speak ye in the light and what ye hear in the
ear, that preach ye upon the housetops. Matthew 10:26-27
Die Pride and Envie; Flesh, take the poor's advice.
Covetousnesse be gon: Come, Truth and Love arise.
Patience take the Crown; throw Anger out of dores:
Cast out Hypocrisie and Lust, which follows whores:
Then England sit in rest; Thy sorrows will have end;
Thy Sons will live in peace, and each will be a friend.
