Anarchist Assembly against Authoritarianism

@ | 16.11.2005 15:23

The UK regime is quickly constructing a dystopian web of repression. This cannot go on unchallenged. This is an invitation for an open dialogue between all anarchist and anti-authoritarians to discuss how we resist the authoritarianism of the state.

Anti-Authoritarianism Anarchist Assembly
Saturday 03rd December, University of London Union (ULU) (Room 3D), 2pm - 6pm

The UK regime is quickly constructing a dystopian web of repression. Today's ASBOs, injunctions and exclusion zones will soon be joined by biometric ID cards, internment, blanket powers of arrest and summary justice. Laws against 'religious hatred', 'harassment' and 'glorification of terror' will criminalise dissenting views. Shoot-to-kill policies and Civil Contingencies powers reframe state executions as necessary to maintain order and preserve the official way of life, it no longer matters whether the accused is guilty.

This cannot go on unchallenged, people should not be afraid of their governments, governments should be afraid of their people. An organised anarchist response to this situation has the potential to alter the balance of power long after the last car stops burning, we must create a real state of emergency and destroy this authoritarianism. With organisation, defiance, and open resistance we always win.

This is an invitation for an open dialogue between all anarchist and anti-authoritarians to discuss how we resist the authoritarianism of the state in our day to day lives, in our local communities, and on an international level. We need to co-ordinate our activities and actions, and work together to start creating a world we desire, and destroy the one the rich have engineered.

The agenda for the meeting is open for all to contribute to, please email agenda proposals to  an_assembly@hushmail.com.

ULU is on Malett Street and is 3 minutes walk from Gower Stret tube station. Ten minutes from both Kings X and Euston.

Government?

The best Government???

Is always less Government...

We just have too much government - every new law creates new criminals at the stroke of a pen....

We need to refind the means & voice to say "No" very clearly, and keep saying "No" to all the things we find unjust, inhumane & just plain 'wrong'.

"We need to co-ordinate our activities and actions, and work together to start creating a world we desire"

1) That's not very anarchic, is it?

2) Little slip-up at the end gives the game away: "a world WE desire". In other words, you're going to impose your views on everyone else on the planet, regardless of whether or not they want you to. Which is (whisper it) an essentially fascist policy.
