Squatting in the media, a squatter responds
05-06-2008 02:39
On Monday 2nd June, inaccurate and prejudicial articles about squatting appeared in the Hate Mail and the Torygraph, then not to be out done, the Daily Star. All were regurgitating some bullshit statement from the conservative party made by Eric Pickles (a particularly nasty right-wing pro-hunt homophobic toad from Essex). So clearly lacking any genuine research or analysis and so blatant in their anti squatter bias, I felt compelled to complain...Merseyside Claimants Action Group launched

04-06-2008 11:32
Like the US, the British press and UK Government are engaged in a propaganda exercise using food shortages to push GM foods and harmful cheap production in the developing world while using false energy problems to push the case for expensive and harmful nuclear solutions without debate. Nuclear power is very expensive and will allow industry led by Adrian Montague to fix electricity prices at higher levels. Please note the similarities in tactics employed in the US with the UK.British Man poisoned by NZ vineyard chemicals needs donations

The Art of Rent is a cycle of 4 meetings that started in January at Queen Mary University of London. This series of public seminars was open to everyone: our experiment with the academic structures to build a sort of open university. Open to London, to everybody who live here or pass through this metropolis. We tried to take the word "metroversity" literally and experiment a metropolitan space inside the university's space itself.
