London bombs community discussion - your help needed

The rampART social centre is planning on hosting some kind of discussion event for people to talk about their concerns, fears, proposals etc in relation to the London bomb attacks.

It is particually hoped that it would enable a dialogue between different elements of the community in order to avoid or mitigate against ill-placed retribution and revenege attacks and to combat attempts to fuel hate and distrust by the some elements of society and the media.

It is also hoped that together we can identify and be aware of moves by the state to capitalise on the fear being generated in the wake of the attacks to clamp down even further on civil libities and introduce new draconian legislation and ID cards etc. Read more >>

Charles Kennedy is a dick

Lib Dem idiot Charles Kennedy has made a fool of himself by dismissing reports linking London bombings to the war in Iraq. FUnny how the polititians have been so quick to point the finger at 'Muslim extremists' yet seem to be at pains to distance the bombing from any connection to the invasion and continued occupation of Iraq. Why? Surely if the group that claims responsibility really did do it (and the Madrid bombing) as we are meant to believe - then the link to Iraq is undeniable since the statement by the group specifically call for the withdrawal of British troops from Iraq.
