G8, The antiauthoritarians story: This is How We Do It

From the beginning there was no well-thought-out master plan for
shutting down the G8 Summit at Gleneagles. In fact, some of
us even dubbed the march we were about to embark on "The
Suicide March". At three in the morning, a large group of
militants dressed in black slipped into the darkness of the
night as the first rain of many days dumped down on them.
The air was thick with the eerie presence of a thousand
determined individuals beginning to walk along the deathly
still road. Besides the occasional attempt at a chant the group
was quiet, perhaps reconsidering the slim probability of
success. Five miles and a heavy police presence stretched
before us and our only destination in sight: Motorway 9 (M9).
This motorway was one of the crucial motorways that
delegates and support staff to the G8 Summit expected to
travel down in a few hours.

So the phone companies will be legally obliged to store communication data and the gprs location of individuals for the Civil Service to review. That's handy, given that GCHQ already do this quietly without drawing attention to themselves.

Campaigners distance themselves from Geldof praise for G8

Having released their own separate media statements in response to the disappointing G8 communique, War on Want and the World Development - 2 UK based development NGOs who have been uneasy about the way in which Make Poverty History has been co-opted by the government and its celebrities - were so disgusted by the Bono and Geldof press conference that they issued a joint statement in condemnation. The question is: why it is only these 2 NGOs who have the guts to come out and speak truth to power?

Bono and Geldof praise G8 deal

As the G8 was busily consigning both Africa and the planet to the rubbish dump of history, and as NGOs sat with their heads in their hands, distraught over the terrible G8 communique, two reliable friends of Blair, Brown and Bush were putting on a stellar pro-G8 performance at the post-summit press conference at Gleneagles.
