Pro-Capitalists 1 Social Change Activists 0: CRAP photos and story.

CRAP Capitalism Represents Acceptable Policy, 26-07-2005 12:07

On Saturday 2nd July 2005, CRAP (Capitalism Represents Acceptable Policy), the world's fiercest, most disiplined and doggedly persistant capitalism advocacy group, marched on the streets of Edinburgh, in defiance of various anarchist, leftist, progressive and churchy/do-goody/reformist organisations and successfully sabotaged their vague and pathetic attempt to make the world fairer, more sustainable and as the slogan goes 'make poverty history'.

Magical Mysterious 1967

Archie Kennedy, 19-07-2005 19:35

Nobody could have predicted 1967 in 1966. It seemed to come out of the clear blue sky. But it didn’t. It had been germinating for a long, long time. And there is no reason to think that if we couldn’t see it coming in 1966 that we would see it coming now. Read more | 2 comments >>

M9 drumming Blockade and Cow Stampede

resist nl, 08-07-2005 04:26

Morning on the 6th July near Stirling. We see the M9 being blockaded by radical drummers who pile trees and rocks on the road. They move on when 9 Police vans turn up at high speed. But their exit into a field of cows starts a stampede. One protester is injured by. And the farmer turns up at high speed in his 4x4 and starts to threaten the protesters with a hammer. Police then run in to arrest just about everyone including the farmer. Read more | 24 comments >>

Video; Saint Bob Geldof licked my camera. Crazy Interview

Mick Fuzz, 05-07-2005 19:05

We saw him from the bus and ran to interview him. It's difficult to tell from this short interview how deeply this man cares about Africa. To be honest he seems quite tired and a little strung out from Live8. Rather than comment he licked the camera. Read more | 11 comments >>
