The water rats report! ESF EXCLUSIVE

horres-zontal multitudes | 07.03.2004 00:45 | European Social Forum | Free Spaces | Repression | London | Oxford

Today the SWP used different people to speak at the 2nd European meeting to organises the London ESF. The green party deputy mare spoke but didn’t say anything – just like a politician. Finally, maybe we may perhaps might start thinking about the process… the was a secret smocked filled room were a real deal was done? Except this was the ESF so it was a light open room with lots of people looking on that did the deal… which maybe possibly could perhaps make the London ESF fulfil the principals of the Social forum movement. Please don’t be put off from participating because maybe, possibly, the is a chances the sects that fail to run the show maybe have noticed that they are not as essential as they always insisted.



Much love the horres-zontal multitudes

Why aren't any of the people in the picture above, facing each other or even looking at each other?

If the european social forum is suposed to an encuentro between different progressive forces in our societies, why do all the people look like like spectators looking at the stage?
At this stage I can't help but feel that ESF in the UK = Super Marxism Conference 2004

Whatever happens with the ESF- the resistances will continue

Just wanted to say hat off to Javier and the other horizontal (who was s/he?) to have the courage and resilience not to give up on the issues of process, and carried on with the workshop facilitated by the Italians and the French. The difference in atmosphere was palpable on Sunday.... Which is great cos Saturday was so depressing....
If the ESF London is not completely dominated by the verticals, it will be partly thanks to you guys!

ESF London October 2004

The assembly agreed at the end of the Saturday session the ESF in 2004 will be held in London. The main venue will be Alexandra Palace.

Hopefully the so-called horizontals will now take part in the process. Though based on their performance today Sunday when even inviting people like Nelson Mandela to the ESF was blocked by them for over an hour. Not sure I care.
