No Respect for Coventry Meeting

Ifor | 24.07.2005 13:37 | Social Struggles | World

Why was the report of the Coventry meeting pulled off Indymedia?

I was very disappointed and indeed concerned to see the posting about the Respect meeting in Coventry pulled after a very short time.This smacks of the most authoritarian censorship and I am dismayed that those in Indymedia who control such matters have removed the report.
Here in Neath the local branch of Respect is in the middle of a fight to retain school bus subsidies and the issue is big and important locally with the local press carrying weekly articles about the campaign to save the subsidies and Respect's role in it.The Neath Guardian has just published a letter from a New Labour cllr attacking Respect and the political battle is hotting up.Does this mean that anything by a Respect member is to be barred from Indymedia and how authoritarian is that if I may ask?
