There's going to be a lot of raids before the march, so keep one step ahead...
Also since the last big student march in November last year snatch squads are back to normal...

If your coming alone, don't bring anything too dodgey like fireworks etc, and think carefully about how involved you want to be if it kicks off. Do you really want to go to prison? And do you trust the people around you?
Try to invite your mates!
But if your in a large "affinty group" or a crew, then consider one of your lot coming on a bike, to scout out the side streets, it well worked before last year.
Give journalists a hard time...
Seriously, threaten to rob them.
First if your coming to London and your a "known face" avoid the Cuts cafe tonight...
The cops made the mistake of not raiding the last TUC march social centre squat last year, they won't let this opportunity pass.
If you've been arrested before, consider the possibility of cops knocking on your door at 5am on saturday morning, so think about staying at a friends house tonight.
Go get a new cheap £10 mobile, use it for the day, all the communication should be a on cheap mobiles.
If your planning any real "heavy shit" don't expect to roll up to the march in black, instead choose 1 person who can wait it out in a cafe/pub with a pre-pay mobile waiting for updates, that one person can hold on to anything "hot" like paint bombs, fireworks or tools for a lock ons etc, while the rest of the group moves about.
Bring a load of random clothes in your bag, like jackets or hats or t-shirts, not black its too obvious, any old colour, but make sure you dump it afterwards where no one will find them...
If it turns into a bit of skirmish you can always retreat have a few paints with the locals and change clothes then get back into it after dark...
If your in London, tonight, follow the path of the route, andcheck all the side streets on a bike, take note of all the road works in the area!
look for ammo!
Anything that ain't bolted down!
"look for the beach under the paving stones!"
and remember to keep active, the riot cops should always be far away from you, if they form a line, don't stand there goading them you will get kettled and/or beaten up, instead turn around keep moving, keep a distance from them.
Remember the West End is full of targets, Starbucks, MacDonalds, HSBC, Barclays, Army recruitment offices, Topshop, the cops can't protect all of them...
Once it gets dark sprad out...
And remember if the cops use plastic bullets you will be witnessing a moment of UK history!

provocation and scare tactics in a posting designed to give a nudge towards a raid of the cuts cafe, which won't happen btw
iffy
Clearly the post is aimed at people who intend to do something

Cops have already ID'd most of the people who are likely to kick-off

If you think that journalists will report a nice peaceful A-B walk then you won't like this post.
If you think that the Condems will listen to the message of a nice peaceful A-B walk then you won't like this post.
If you think that all activists are pacifists then you won't like this post.
If you are planning on taking some form of Direct Action tomorrow then you may find this post useful.
There are militant activists who like fucking shit up, and there are liberals who like A-B marches, and there is such a thing as diversity of tactics.
But a thread full of this a cop troll or Indymedia haven't spiked this post which means they are cops is boring and futile.
We don't need cops to make trouble
Would someone just trying to be useful play such theatrics?

(Of course, I noticed a gang of uniformed thugs sneering about cowardice when I later walked away inside a larger group.)

we need to keep to the miliant action going last year after the riots it get pritty stale, Occupy and all those nutters sucked the life out of the movment, instead of harrassing the rich, our movement argued in 2 massive London campsites about which junky is ate the most biscuits on a daily basis.
Time to get back in the streets.
why not allow a litttle militant hype on indymedia? the journals will write some shit, but at least like minded pissed off young people from the estates will hear about it, and think "Yeah i'm up for that, I'm fucking pissed off."
yeah check the other websites like Fitwatch but don''t expect them to back you up when the cops nick you chucking a brick!
jibber jabber fool
