“Urbicide” the intentional killing of a city is a brutal tactic of war, designed to destroy people’s sense of home and belonging to a larger collective.

Young people are being encouraged to have a say on plans for a building providing support services for women on the Holloway Prison redevelopment site.
The Make Space for Women competition is inviting young people to submit a story, poem or piece of artwork that explains or visualises why women need space.
The council last week agreed that campaign group Community Plan for Holloway (CP4H) should hold workshops on the competition in schools.
