context_page_description: SchNEWS was a free weekly publication from Brighton, England, which ran from November 1994 until September 2014. The main focus was environmental and social issues/struggles in the UK – but also internationally – with an emphasis on direct action protest, and autonomous political struggles outside formalised political parties.
  As well as the free weekly double-sided A4 news-sheet and website, SchNEWS also regularly produced short films, and has self-published a series of books – mostly annuals featuring compilations of SchNEWS issues. The group also produced political satire shows, the most recent being national tours in 2004 and 2005, and since its inception held free-information stalls and marquees at major UK festivals, free parties and other events.
  SchNEWS was run entirely by unpaid volunteers, and existed financially by donation from readers and subscribers, rather than through regular funding channels.
  The strapline and motto of SchNEWS was "information for action" — giving the reader the necessary information and contacts, so they can become pro-actively involved in political issues.
