It is a travesty that a city with a radical tradition as rich as Glasgow's has no permanent anarchist base of operations.
An Anarchist centre would inevitably mean a greater prescence in our communities, acting as a social centre, meeting place and hub for distribution of resources and propaganda.
Having a focal-point for activists, we could elicit greater co-ordination within the Glaswegian libertarian fraternity and encourage the planning of more *ahem* 'immediate' resistance, if you catch my drift.
With the increasing marginalisation of anarchists in the growing anti-capital movement, we cannot lie idle and watch our voice atrophy due to the monopolistic actions of certain parties. We must debunk the misconception that Anarchists are 'unable to organise a piss-up in a brewery' and show that with co-operation and solidarity, we can bring together our disparate community and forge the basis of a more powerful, progressive movement in our city.
Meetings are now taking place every second Monday at 7:30pm in Mono, 12 Kings Court, King Street in the city centre, just across from the 13th Note Cafe.
**The next meeting is taking place on Monday the 27th of October.
