@nti-capitalist/ bail out Demo/action at anarchist bookfair?

Anarchist | 14.10.2008 14:36 | Social Struggles | Workers' Movements

There has already been a callout for an action against the bank bailout for the friday before the Anarchist bookfair, but why not also do one on the day itself?

The London Anarchist bookfair is one of the largest anarchist events in the world - we could easily use this as an opportunity for a large implicity anarchist anti-capitalist action on the day of the book fair, when (if previous years are anything to go by) at least several thousand anarchists will be in the same place at the same time. It wouldn't even necassarily have to be a daytime action, we could wait until the evening when the bookfair is winding down.
It just seems like, in this time of capitalist chaos, we need to bring militancy and anarchist politics back to the streets, and what better time to start than when we could easily get 1000 plus of us out? - Something to think about in the week running up to the bookfair!

I am not calling for a demo, but opening up the question of what we could put together or do on the day, so lets get a debate going and try to work something out.
