Show Master Democracy or Social forum in exSU

04-11-2007 09:14

What happened on 3rd of December to the vital Russian-Ukrainean Social movements in Moscow is hopefully just a warning case. If not, the show-down of the Moscow meeting at the posh club “Bi-Lingua” yesterday proves that the Forum process in the former Soviet Union is about to be high-jacked by a professorial self-made man. => How can we restitute the power of direct democracy and participatory conversion in our movement?

01-11-2007 21:16

The accounts also contain statements signed off as true by Director Paul Hills which are blatently false.

The question on every EDO MBM employee's mind is will new parents ITT save them, or put them out of their misery?

01-11-2007 13:30
