Hallowe'en Anti-Capitalist Action in Wales

Ghost of Wat Tyler | 21.10.2008 15:44 | Globalisation

Get down to the Nye Bevan Statue, Queen St, Cardiff at 5 pm, Friday 31st October for a torchlight march and exorcism with music, poetry, speeches and cacophony. Capitalism is bad black magick!

Show me a capitalist and I'll show you a bloodsucker - Malcolm X

What if the rotting corpses of Reclaim The Streets, The Liverpool Dockers Dispute, the numerous Anti-Roads Protests, arose to celebrate the death of capitalism, with a Ghoulish, Trick or Treat, Family Friendly, Sambista, Mass Street Party on Halloween (Friday 31st October)?

What if the Four Horse-Folk of the Anti-Capitalist Apocalypse, Anarchist, Communist, Ecowarrior, Revolution, rode out to join in the chaotic mayhem fun?

Sshh . . .

I have heard rumour that there is gonna be some kinda anti-capitalist demonstration or stop-the-city happening to do with the credit crunch on Halloween evening. Word on the street is if you hang around the Aneurin Bevan Statue at 5 pm you may be in a very good position to get involved with the action: the statue is on Queen Street near Bradford and Bingley Bank.

radical trick-or-treating? exorcising the demonic power of the banks? dancing on the grave of capitalism? a meeting of freaks and militants? a manic street meeting? people's theatre? symbolic executions? mind-bombs? free food and music and a party? a raggle taggle working class army determined to kick in the door to eden and storm the winter palace of capital? Keep your ears open for rumours - but remember: walls have ears, and ears have walls . . .
