COLLAPSE FASTER!


FRIDAY 11TH OCTOBER, 5PM, BANK TUBE

-->THE BANK OF ENGLAND, THREADNEEDLE STREET, LONDON.

1989: The wall falls, capitalism triumphs.
1999: Protesters stop the World Trade Organisation meeting in Seattle,
but globalisation continues to deregulate everything and carve up the
world for the global economy.
2008: Folks, its all gone pear shaped!

Recession has hit. America first, Ireland now, Britain next. Prices
continue to rise, food, homes and energy begin to slip out of reach.
Wages have stagnated for years, now we all face the chop. The government
is getting ready for millions more unemployed over the next five years,
and they’ll face the harshest forced-work programs since Victorian times
– just to get the pittance of the dole. It is no longer cost effective
to employ you. You are not buying anything anymore. The banks have
fucked it up, they won't lend because the cash flow has dried up, so now
they crash. Northern Rock, Lehman Brothers, Bradford & Bingley.

First priority of the politicians who claim to be in control of the
market? Bail out our banker buddies! That’s $700 billion of US workers'
money, to be given to the speculators so they can start playing roulette
with our lives again. The millions of us who didn’t actually cause this
crisis are told to accept ‘wage restraint’. Down here everyone waits,
and works, and worries. We can call for more state intervention, we can
moan about how this particular crash is the fault of this particular
policy by this particular party or this particular Plc. – or we can
accept it's not the players, it’s the game.

Capitalism isn’t in crisis; capitalism IS crisis!

Now is our time, if we are brave enough to seize it, to say that as long
as capitalism continues, we can never be secure. But now, for once, they
are insecure like us. We say let them suffer their own crimes, no
bailouts for the bosses! So, we won't beg for ‘no repossessions’, we
will join our neighbours and resist, and the bailiffs won’t dare tread
on our streets! We won't accept ‘wage restraint’, we will organise in
workplaces and unions to win what we need! More than this, one day we
will seize control of our own economy, so their system can do no more
damage. But for now, we will take to the streets.

On Friday 11th October, we call all anarchists, radicals and people who
have their eyes on the ball to join us to pay a visit to the bank
manager. We will take more than anger, we will take a clear threat, and
one that cannot be soothed. The bankers are our enemies, the bosses are
our enemies. Today we will suffer this crisis as we suffer their crimes,
but we also see their weakness and in that we find hope. Bankers,
bosses, politicians listen up: Your time is soon over, our time is now!
