'Solidarity Tools', evidence for militants to consider before action!

18-09-2010 17:48

Now is the time when we must spread our ideas, our plans and visions for the future community of which we belong, our hopes and our dreams, to display them with our actions, to show them to the world and say, we, the anarchists, are coming! (yeah, soz about that bit, wanted to sound a bit pompous to reel you in...)

The following is a knock-up of loads of 'propaganda' that i lifted from websites registered in numerous countries. The information will aid you on the journey to freedom. It is not illegal information, although if you are one of thousands of comrades on the prowl at night, or in broad daylight, searching for a 'target', then this information is for you. The following information is to aid 'action efficiency' and nothing else......if you can please translate it and spread it to the four corners of the web, discuss if necessary, your welcome to add to it, borrow it or whatever the fuck you wanna do with it.........but most of all, please learn, comrades, because the big ones coming...

We are not the 'Big Society'

18-09-2010 14:22

Transcription of the "We are not the 'Big Society' seminar", London Free School, 195 Mare St., 25th July 2010.

The seminar was organised to address the Con-Dem coalition's policy of the ‘Big Society', and its use of some of the ideas and language used in autonomous spaces-‘free school', ‘autonomy', ‘self-organisation', ‘empowerment of communities'. So how do those of us committed to these activities and values respond to all this ‘Big Society' crap?

Who pays for the loss of life in Iran?

18-09-2010 14:13

"Iran’s aviation fleet which is chiefly comprised of Russian low-quality Tupelov and outdated Airbus and Fokker planes is one of the most vulnerable fleets in the world which suffers from increasing dilapidation and is considered to be highly at risk due to the unjust sanctions which are imposed against the country.

In December 2005, BBC World published a report in which it was expressively stated that Iran’s civil and military aviation fleet is undergoing intense safety setbacks. The report came after an Iranian Air Force C-130E military transport aircraft crashed into a residential complex in Tehran, killing 128 people including 68 reporters and journalists that were supposed to cover a military drill off the country’s southern coast on the Persian Gulf."

Lovely work of U.S. policy. So "humanitarian."

afghans' voice must be heard
Ever wonder what is really going on in Afghanistan and why the West is there and who the West is actually supporting? What do the Afghans really think off all this? What do the Afghan people want and what do they need? What’s the way forward for Afghanistan? And what would this mean for the position of the West?

CUTS: this week in Bristol

What they're doing to your services this week
School Library Service to be cut:

Planning officers to be cut by 25% (also volunteer librarians suggested and museum privatisation)

BCC propaganda campaign against homecare workers begins:

http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/news/cost-care-adds/arti....html

Private care costs £16 per hour; public costs £26 per hour. This is being blamed om homecare staff and their sick records. However even with sickness rates of 20% and travel-to-work time, the public costs would still only be £23 -£24 per hour. The waste appears to be in management ...

Redundancy notices at Connexions issued:

http://www.thisisbristol.co.uk/news/Cuts-sought-163-3-4....html

I've spoken to a worker there who said 16 of the 20 staff made redundant at her office were part-time working mums.

Tory conference to kick off winter of discontent

18-09-2010 00:32

The demonstrations opposing austerity at the tory conference on october 3rd will, say trade union reps, herald the start of a winter of discontent in the UK as the cuts move beyond government memos and newspaper opinion columns and become a horrendous part of daily life. Unsurprisingly, west midlands police are attempting to stall and limit the scale of action at the demo. It seems the anti-cuts campaign is beginning to spring into life as a mass movement just in time to assert itself in the face of state-sponsored class war and protest repression.

To the anarchists ...

17-09-2010 23:40

This was originally posted on Bristol Indymedia at this address  http://bristol.indymedia.org/article/693475

I wrote this as part of the bristol anarchist/squatter movement. We seem to have a lot of energy and mobilisation going on at the moment over various issues/campaigns. So as austerity has arrived I've become confused about why on earth we've been so distant from the workers' movements. I wrote this as an appeal to people to get stuck in to local anti-cuts campaigns. It's opened up some very interesting debates online and in person, and has seen some interesting (and for me at least, positive) developments at meetings and in campaigning. I didn't write this to tear us apart - just to suggest ways we could improve our 'service'. I know very little of campaigns outside of the southwest so this may be of absolutely no relevance to you. I'm sure it will be relevant to some though, and I'd like to share my thoughts with people nationwide. I've edited it to bring in some stuff I wrote after publishing.
