a few photos and some thoughts and ideas on sack parliament

even armed with the mighty socpa (serious organised crime and police act) it would appear that police ended up seriously abusing their powers in many different ways on monday. i hope their cases can be seriously undermined by collected evidence of their unlawful actions. Read more >>

On the Ground: eye witness reports from Sack Parliament

By Friday October 6 in this foul year of our Lord 2006 it was already labelled a riot across nearly every Rupert Murdoch freebee newspaper and every copy of the Evening Slander in the city. In the spirit of the war on terror fearful names were back in the mainstream headlines again. No, not Al Qaeda. Not even the IRA. Nor the Fathers for Justice gone rabid or militant pro-fox hunting farmers armed with fire works and tweed jackets. No. This time it was the Wombles. Violent anarchists. Masked anti-capitalists intent on destroying parliament and pulling the plug on UK democracy. Read more >>

Australian Wheat Board “oil for food” inquiry ends with threats

While the Australian media and the opposition Labor Party have happily promoted the AWB “scandal”, neither has raised any connection between the affair and the Howard government’s sordid calculations in the lead-up to the Iraq invasion. Their silence again demonstrates the complicity of the entire political and media establishment with the criminal invasion and occupation of Iraq, and the violent drive of the Bush administration to seize control of its resources.

Music of movement to manifest the moment

Recently, there has emerged a new social movement which intends to shine some light on the state of the music industry. It examines copyright, publishing rights and exposes those who control such commodities in a society which has become dominated by financial gain. This group of people proclaim the inevitable arrival of a sound which defies the current trend of the pillage of social consciousness in music and concentrates on the origins of music as a unique form of communication, from regions across the globe. Their aim is to expand and elevate social consciousness; describe the terms and conditions of extreme wealth/poverty, highlight all of the injustices which seek to perpetuate this and eventually put an end to it. The acetate republic claim no leadership and the only criteria for membership is that its members 'use' music as opposed to 'abusing' it. The republicans have also caused a stir by adopting a controversial 'copyleft' law -juxtaposing the infamous 'copryright'-, allowing other artists to use original material in live performance without gaining permission.
