Suffolk police today stepped in to close down a rave that had been going on all night in a Suffolk village. The illegal party started on Saturday at Coney Weston between Diss and Thetford, and officers moved in early today to bring it to a close.

These places are 30 miles apart …. not only is this inaccurate it increases the locals fear as they think more events are happening than is actually the case…:rant:

same thing happened to me when I lived in Reading, found out a rave was in nearby South Oxfordshire and just rode there on my pushbike..

although I normally don’t like seeing residents annoyed I do think these landowners are way too selfish. Many of them don’t even do anything useful with the land like farming etc, often they just live in big houses to hide away from the people they stitched up or stomped on to get their money…

yeah there is noise but it can’t be worse than the night freight trains carrying nuclear waste and heavy ballast etc that runs through the outskirts of Ipswich at odd hours; I just shut my windows and can’t hear them; surely he can afford double glazing?

And if any of us had that sort of money we’d just have the field licensed so it would be legal and cops couldn’t do anything :horay:

however much the fields owner wants for its use

plus about 21 quid for a TENS which allows you to have 500 people there…

Ah right cheers m8, the farmer is letting us have the field for a 100 quid over the weekend and this seems like it would be a cheap and inexpensive way of making it legal. Cheers GL

good point.. although like any insurance thats a civil matter.. its just financial protection against the potential loss of being sued by a victim of accident or injury at the event….

whilst the license is a requirement Crown Authorities to satisfy the criminal law and that the event has been set up in an acceptable manner..

its possible the farmer already has this in his farms insurance policy as its not uncommon for people to go to a farm to buy produce etc or attend craft workshops..

theres obviously a bit of a moral push to have this for a legal event, OTOH how many free parties happen without this whatsoever, and how many clubs have it TBH (just because the policy is up on the wall doesn’t always mean it is valid, and who actually bothers to look for this sort of thing before attending?) any idea how much costs would be for this? (could increase the costs somewhat…)
