London Occupations Teach-Outs today..plus Euston at 5pm
MR | 08.12.2010 10:33 | Education | Public sector cuts | Social Struggles
'Come all ye minds of intrigue. After a very successful teach-in day, it is time to once again break out of the university bubble. This time we take to the streets in a form of protest quite different than the usual. Our message that education and access to knowledge should be open and accessible to all will be made all across London, as lectures and discussions erupt in train stations, museums and shopping centres…'

Enough is Enough

We have ever-increasing food, fuel and utility bills, taxes and new fines imposed on us... but never see an improvement from this extra revenue, not in the Transport Network, Housing, Healthcare, Production or Education, which are all in serious decline, like the economy.
Yet, there is no shortage of funds for Shards, Domes or Stadiums and other monuments erected at the folly of egotistical megalomaniacs, who award themselves record-breaking bonuses, when the masses face austerity in a harsh winter of discontent.
We don't accept your laws,
We don't want your wars,
We don't need your debt,
We will reclaim the planet!
