Loony Lobby's Genoa Protestors Code of Conduct

02-08-2001 09:03

The New Economics Foundation is a Blairite think tank/Lobby which pretends to be advocating a sustainable type of New Economy which marries social awareness with profit. They are the sort of people who get rich, and have a fairly easy life... in a job which seems to have the effect to hinder more justifiable strategies (like ours!) to generate real, lasting sustainable change. Should we try and work with them?

The Blairian's Rome correspondant digs deeper hole

02-08-2001 05:55

Remember Philip Willan,( mc3390@mclink.it) The Blairian's Rome correspondant, well he's at it again, here's today's effort on the call to hand over tapes and images of the demonstrators. Bad effects on journalists, "journalists will be increasingly identified as part of the problem rather than as professionals who try to record what is happening. And this is very dangerous." Good!

Here's some links to his previous unsubtle meanderings, think it must be time for The Blairian management to get him out of there, clearly not up to the job.

pedophilia not a laughing matter

pedophilia not a laughing matter
It's excellent that a mainline show in the UK chose to finally mess with the mindsets of the thoroughly hysterified masses by presenting such a show as Channel 4 did...yet, as the art shows, here, the situation remains insane.
