30th June 2011 may well turn out to be the most important step forward in a mass fight against public sector cuts. Hundreds of thousands of workers could be involved in strike action, from as many as four or five different unions including NUT, PCS, UCU and ATL.
Often strike action can be ignored by those in power but also the vast majority of workers not in unions or directly effected by the issues. Therefore we, rank & file union members, students, precarious workers & unemployed are calling for a mass show of solidarity for those taking strike action and to generalise the strike on June 30th.
From early morning pickets, direct actions, occupations & demonstrations - whatever you're into - lets all do it on June 30th and amplify the resistance to austerity. This call to action is going out to activist direct action groups, local anti cuts groups, radical political groups,
radical unions and student university occupations.

The industrial union DAta Miners Travailleurs Psychique attend the June 30 march in London and we call on local un-unionised data miners and psychic workers to join us. This march called by PCS, ATL, UCU and NUT goes through areas of London where the workers represented by these unions would have been working if they were not on strike. This march is therefore not simply an A to B march - it is a claiming of ownership of the resources of production by these workers. These streets are part of the resources used in the production of public space by public workers. Furthermore since the PCS is the representative of the Metropolitan Police workers, any confrontation with police is not simply spectacular - it is the confrontation of striking workers with scab workers. Whatever the secret state's hand in orchestrating and manipulating this situation, these objective manifestations of class war are what we join with.
So as well as claiming common ownership of the resources and factors of production and confronting scabs and capitalists, we also need to establish that this strike is an opportunity for us to organise and unionise. To build on this event into a global world wide general strike. It was the Tolpuddle Martyrs whose subversion of freemasonic initiation provided a vital boost and temporal vertex for Trade Unionism in London - and we welcome them into the DEad WOrkers Union. It is with them that DAMTP-DEWOU break off from the main march and launch psychic attack on the Freemasons Grand Lodge. This simply manifests through our allowance of all psychic workers who are scabbing and collaborating with the capitalists to renounce their position and join the DAMTP. Like the Tolpuddle Martyrs we conduct psychic initiation using these specially prepared situgraphics which allows them to join our union or indeed form their own one - or more - person unions.
The meeting point is at Lincolns Field Inn is of course based on the Great Pyramid at Giza - the west side, created by Inigo Jones faces the A-Men-tie mysteries and it is no coincidence that both the Trade Union marches and Freemasonic processions often begin from here. However, it is not just vital that the trajectory from Freemasonry into Trade Unionism be disrupted and superceded. It is inevitable.

Am about the millionth person to say this on Indymedia but yet FB still remains the zeitgeist organising tool for modern politicos regardless. Put that in your pipe and tweet it!
