Tories turn to Video Activism

Press Release

Tories promote Video Activism

In a bizzare turn of events, the Tories are now promoting the work of
undercurrents. Since 1993,Undercurrents alternative news has promoted direct
action against the Conservative Governments road building and its draconian
Criminal Justice Act.

Now its appears the grey and crumbling Tories are reading our Video Activist
Handbook.The hand book details the protests against the Tories as well as a
step by step guide on how to use video to bring about social change.

Video-activist Roddy Mansfield, who contributed to the book and who's picture also appears on the front cover, said:
"The video-activist handbook is usually only available via mail-order from alternative bookshops and I couldn't help but laugh when I saw it for sale on the Conservative party website"

Only a few years ago Bernard Ingham (Thatchers former press secretary) said that video-activism was
"Indefensible, probably illegal, and if you go down that route you will have utter Anarchy".

A spokesperson for Undercurrents said-
"We find it hilarious that the Conservatives are now romoting our Video activist handbook and we look forward to seeing Michael Howard MP dangling from
the trees with camcorder in hand"
