Uncorrected machine reading. This text was read by machine (Apple Vision OCR) from a scan of a newspaper page, and the page was cut into articles by machine, at the headlines found by their type size. Nothing has been corrected: expect misread words, text from a neighbouring article, and titles that are the machine reading of the headline, some of them only fragments. Quote from the scan, not from this page.
How this article was cut and titled: headline found by type size in the OCR geometry (split_tabloid.py); 1-1 of 4; machine-segmented newspaper page; uncorrected Vision OCR.

The police are getting active all round. A summer offensive is beginning. Black Dimensions cyclostyled magazine which contained its own allegations of racialist behaviour by Notting Hill Gate police was raided recently and a great deal of literature taken away. No charge yet. IT's offices were searched on a ridiculous pretext and letters seized. Again no charge. After a visit by local from their entrenched positions of power in the police and local councils they are launching a counter attack. It is going to get a lot worse before it gets better comrades. If you are attacked remember that you do have weapons. Publicity is one of them. If nobody knows about it nobody can help you. Tell us at least. But don t ignore bourgeois outlets for complaint - local papers, MP's even your local vicar. If the shit is flying and he's willing to be used use him like a shield. Never plead guilty: always fight back. Hire the best lawyer you can find and then don't pay
