The London Class War Xmas social is 7pm tonight at Freedom Books in Angel Alley, Whitechapel. Nearest tube is Algate East - we hope to see as many members and supporters there as possible.

We also sign off with a last event before Xmas, by joining the Campaign Against Prison Slavery's picket of Wilko's in Stratford. Meet outide Wilko's at noon, Saturday 20th December. Fancy dress if possible - lets give Wilko's manager a nice present to remember us by!

What a shitty venue!

Why are anarchist parties always held at such shitty and run down venues. They should be held at top London nightclubs instead!

Top London Venues

The problem with top venues is they charge top prices!

Freedom has also made real effort to bring itself into the 21st century, and I think people should support that!

I'm sure that prisoners would get more support for their campaign if they were to offer any extra wages to their victims. Around two-thirds of prisoners are in jail for violence, sex offences and burglary. The last figures published are from the beginning of this year. See the link:

crime and punishment

19.12.2003 23:41

There is a clear difference between ordinary decent working class criminals and life/soul destroying sex offenders/child molesters and child murderers.

Most ordinary decent petty criminals are in for petty theft, shoplifting, fine evasion, and crimes against property, some are political prisoners, such as Mark Barnsley, who was wrongly and falsely convicted, and others whose convictions have been quashed. Working class petty criminals recieve lengthy sentences for petty crime, whilst corporate executives who steal millions through fraud and tax evasion recieve suspended or light sentences.

Many working class petty criminals come from backgrounds of extreme poverty, social difficulties, unstable backgrounds, drug probelms and institutional care. Corporate executives and establishment fraudsters come from privileged comfy backgrounds, railtrack executives responsible for cost cutting negligence leading to the deaths of passengers through corporate manslaughter, are given suspended sentences, or fined pittances.

Child sex offenders and murderers such as Sidney cooke, and Robert Oliver who perpetrate vile crimes against defenceless children and leave a trail of emotional, mental and physical devastation are freed, and given 2 year sentences or suspended sentences, yet bank robbers and ordinary decent criminals get 10 years for crimes against property.

Sex offenders and paedophiles should never ever be let out of prison, they should remain in prison indifinitely. Sex offenders and paedophiles could be kept in prison forever, if petty ordinary decent criminals were not given custodial sentences. This would free up prison space, funds and personnel to keep sex offenders, child murderers and paedophiles in prison forever then life for child murderers, sex offenders and paedophiles would mean life.
