CHANGES at mutations, Nightworkers Statement

S/PTC/2/5/13

30 March 1984

Two-sided A5 sheet, printed black on white. This short leaflet was handed out on Friday 30th March to people attending the "Mutations" alternative disco at The Bell pub at 257-259 Pentonville Road, N1 (now the "Big Chill" bar/club). It is Nightworkers' explanation of why they excluded Gay CND and Gay Icebreakers from the previously jointly-run Mutations disco, and took sole control. It makes reference to incidents two weeks previously when a number of black gay men were harassed or attacked and subjected to racist and fascist abuse at Mutations. It claims that "a member of the audience" tore the leads from the disco equipment", whereas although Paul Thurlow tried to do this, he did not succeed.
