Pixies’ Prison Pranks

Pixies visited a prison construction site on the night of Sept 12th. The site in Ashford, Surrey is earmarked for a new, privately run, women’s prison. CAGE occupied the same site last year to highlight the growth in new prisons and the prison industry. Clearance work has started at the site but preferred bidders have not yet been announced.

With little planning, pixies descended on the site compound. Two lorries and a number of diggers were well and truly trashed and the message “No prison state” left for the contractors. The pixies said “It was fun and easy, give it a go”.
