Urgent: Protest in Defence of Gaza Demonstrators 26/4/10
25-04-2010 10:35
Isleworth Crown Court, 36 Ridgeway Road, Isleworth TW7 5LP
***SOLIDARITY NEEDED IN COURT***
Yet another young man, who had the strength and courage to take a stand against the collective punishment of 1.5 million people in Gaza during the Gaza bombing last year, is in court on Monday.
Martin Askew, a writer from London, faces a lengthy prison term if the jury find him guilty of violent disorder. Mr Askew was himself brutally attacked by a police sergeant who gave evidence last week saying he "hit him as hard as I could" in the head with his full-body shield. The jury had earlier seen footage of Mr Askew showing peace signs to police lines moments before he was attacked. The police sergeant in question said he "jabbed" Mr Askew because he had been "distracting" police and had to "take him out".
The people VS. a rigged UK election
25-04-2010 10:25
The only way the people can win in a rigged election is if the election itself loses by being exposed and understood as rigged by the UK to conserve the status quo, and therefore the election results ought to be taken with several tanker loads of salt and generally disrespected as rigged and undemocratic.

Tony Blair, very close to being indicted for war crimes in Malaysia
24-04-2010 18:22
This was no ordinary protest. Tony Blair has been accused of war crimes in a legal initiative led by the country's former Prime Minister, Dr. Mahathir Mohamad.
Upon entering the main convention hall, Tony Blair was very close to being served with an indictment for war crimes.
While the unfolding events have been acknowledged by the Malaysian press, Tony Blair's visit to Malaysia has passed virtually unnoticed in the United Kingdom. In fact, outside of Malaysia, the issue has not received press coverage.
Deafening silence and complicity of the British media? One would expect that people in Britain would want to know what happened to Tony Blair in Kuala Lumpur.
