22/12/06: Anti-consumer Christmas Carols, London

Oscar Beard | 30.12.2006 23:34 | Culture | Globalisation | London | World

Festive delay, but finally here.

A seven minute video covers the brutal attacks by a group of crazed and dangerously drunk Christmas Carol singers as they rampaged their way from Carnaby Street onto Oxford Street, storming the most splendid institutes of "cheap and affordable" consumer churches.

NikeTown, Selfridges, Debenhams and Topshop - all fine establishments with clean employment rights records and highly paid staff members, with guaranteed pension schemes, were subjected to bastardised festive ditties by a visibly dangerous crowd of thugs, rude legal observers and cruel cameramen, none with the least amount of concern for public safety.

A cruel and vicious stunt that should not be copied by anyone, anywhere in the world.

I love this, especially the "security guards" who don't have a clue why they are trying to stop the filming, they just can't cope with anyone who disrupts the spendaholic status quo.

Keep it up everyone, the message seems to have really got through this year - Christmas is not about shopping, however much the corporates would like it to be.
