Jailed anarchist Toby Shone has been moved to HMP Garth
Jailed anarchist Toby Shone has been moved 265 kilometers from his home in Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, and almost 300 kilometers from his support in Bristol, to HMP Garth in Leyland, a maximum security prison near Manchester. Although he is in the reintegration phase of his sentence, a vengeful probation and counter-terrorism team are attempting to isolate Toby from his supposed support base and loved ones in the south of the country and lock him up in a notoriously violent Category B prison for people, who are serving sentences of 10 years or more, intentionally putting people in danger. The probation service has ordered Toby to serve the remainder of his almost 13-month prison sentence, from which he is scheduled to be released on November 11, 2024.
Toby was imprisoned in Wandsworth, Bristol and G4S Prison Parc for almost two years on charges of being an administrator of the counter-information project 325.nostate.net. After the political prosecution failed and the police had to drop the case 5 days before the trial in October 2021, Toby was sentenced to 3 years and 9 months for possession of psychedelic drugs. He was released on December 28, 2022 under strict License Conditions monitored by a multi-agency team (MAPPA) including the National Security (Counter-Terrorism) Department and was forced to spend 9 months in a filthy bail hostel in Gloucester to live.
He had just moved back into a flat in the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire when he was stopped and arrested by an armed police unit a few miles from the city of Gloucester on the morning of September 19, 2023. He was accused of being in possession of an [unauthorized] telephone and of attending a dinner and letter-writing night for prisoners at the BASE anarchist social center in Bristol in August.
Toby continues to be held as a TACT (terrorist) prisoner despite being found not guilty of a terrorist offense by a High Court judge in October 2021.
Toby is still in a good mood and asks for letters and emails. Emails are forwarded very quickly on emailaprisoner.com (please give them a reply form). You can also write to him at:
Toby Shone A7645EP HMP Garth Ulnes Walton Leyland Preston PR26 8NE UK

Anarchist Toby Shone Recalled To Prison On 19 September 2023
Toby Shone is an anarchist who was imprisoned in Wandsworth, Bristol and G4S Prison Parc for nearly two years accused of being the administrator of counter-information project 325.nostate.net. After the political prosecution failed and the cops had to drop the case 5 days before trial in October 2021, Toby received a sentence of 3 years 9 months for possession of psychedelic medicines. He was released on 28 December 2022 under heavy restrictions (license conditions), oversight by a multi-agency team (MAPPA) including the National Security Division (counter-terror) and was forced to live in a filthy bail hostel in Gloucester for 9 months. He had just moved back into a flat in the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire 9 days ago.
On the morning of 19 September 2023, he was driving to an appointment with his probation officer when he was pulled over and arrested by an armed police unit in-between the Forest of Dean and Gloucester. He was taken to HMP Bristol. He is awaiting more detailed information, but his legal team say that the allegations are that he breached two of his license conditions: being in possession of an [unauthorised] phone and attending a meeting in Bristol in August.
Toby is in great spirits as ever and requests letters and books. Please write to him at:
Toby Shone A7645EP HMP Bristol 19 Cambridge Road Bishopston Bristol BS7 8PS

If anyone is interested in building alternative power structures outside of capitalism, setting up or joining a co-operative is a great way to do it. Radical Routes is a collective of co-operatives, mostly housing co-ops but some worker’s co-ops too, working to establish those structures.
