Defend the democracy village at Parliament Square! Resist the eviction tommorrow

Democracy villager | 24.05.2010 10:26

On Tuesday 25th May at 6am the met police plan to dismantle the democracy village in Parliament Square ready for the Queen's opening of Parliament. As many people as possible need to get there by Monday night, tonight to stay over night and defend the democracy village!

Lets show the Met police that they cannot intimidate the democracy village and that any attempt by them to do so will be met by maximium resistance!

How is this evection come about ?
Is there a Court Order ?

has the court order been Shewn to A.S.S ( Squaters Advice ) ? In case the court forgot to Stamp it or something.

I've visited the Democracy Village a few times and I will say That it's the best Action in Central London for many years.

How about you pack up and leave. Why should such a small group of people have a monopoly on protest on the square?

Hi we need some rumour control. The police are searching not evicting.To make area safe and searched for parliament opening.There is a good liason going on with police which we have worked very hard on.They say they have learnt from g20.We are staying vigilant there could be GLA try eviction sometime , but they now being legally challenged under euro rights to free assembly by Bindmans top himan rights lawyers so we may get some notice and Judicial review before or after they attempt to move us.They may move some tents some day but they cannot stop the discussion forum and action.U cannot stop an idea.Come and help seee with your own eyes and take action to stop the war. Peace

What is actually happening is that : police HAVE NO PLAN OR INTENTION OF EVICTING DEMOCRACY VILLAGE TOMORROW. The only thing the police have said when they have been on site the past couple of days is that there will be a pulsar search at 6.30 in the morning to check for weapons in every tent etc. before the queens opening of parliament. Other than that there is no talk of eviction. I was there when the police told us about the plans for Tues.

All the same the more people turn up the better for the day

The grass bit is owned by the GLA and bonkers boris would prefer the cops to do the dirty work instead of using balifs to do it, and anything that goes wrong to be blamed on the cops not his shower.

The only problem is that if the camp goes on too long then it looses message and impact, look at brian, hes gone mad, his "camp" is a tatty mess and he shouts at people who even slightly disagree with him.

...Some say a saint for his stalwart action lasting many years, highlighting the evil abuse and terror enacted on the Iraqi people etc by the mad morons..the blair. He is a bit cranky - and really now there is a camp, and others willing to picket parliament over this issue, he doesn't need to be there. (all the time). I would say he needs to go travel with the peace convoy in Ireland...and see that side of things. Take the kids mate). I know hes a christian, presumably a nice game one rather than ritual abuse masonic paradigm, but none the less, the individualistic saint type jesus trip has limitations. The action needs to collective/communal with a strong pagan circle element. It also needs to have an overt solidarity with indigenous people...and doesn't need to be a vegan type hegmony.

He would LOVE the Outer Hebridies, and they would love him - its a very christian type place, reasonably real christians, as mainstream christians go. Amazing place - but peace convoy first please Brian...and Ireland to be off the radar/influence of the british state. They can be be extremely evil players...the psy op games being played out to the extent that they cloak the spiritual aspect/liberation. (let alone the more material level of hassle). You could say its a state sponsered hustle - you know the way some hustle/con tricks kinda literally take over your brain - the british state are expert players at this game - a game to contain individual and collective consciousness within a pile of shite. This is the crux actually - to liberate community wide consciousness from anti magic ritual abuse paradigm, to that of positive auspicious mother earth grounded reality (basically). How to do this? R. LOL.

I for one...

..am unwilling to live/stay on site with Indymedia editorial/schnews people. They are both pro Maoist and pro ALF, and thus anti Makah Tribal whaling to the extent to attempting to focualise a nationwide harrasment campaign (inlcuding harrassing phone calls) towards me, simple because they disagree with my solidarity with the Makah (basically). Yes really. F'ing pricks. So what I am saying is that the/your peace 'movement' will never ever ever become a community wide phenomina in its current incarnation/reality...until you people actually wake up a little and see the bigger picture. These ALF type extremists will attempt to infiltate any event/group and always try and impose their hegmony...one minute they will be pro ALF, the next they will be all peaced up with this sort of protest. I mean people like Jo at Schnews...but not just her, its sort of like a self maintaining clique. Thus you fail boys and girls...kinda sorry to say, but there is of course, in actual fact (egoisers), an infinity of planets, realities even. You, this planet, is merely host to total and complete vermin that will be subject to purification (destruction) one way or another. (thats spiritual purification essentially by the way). Listen people, assuming the clique doesn't censor off this message, these creeps really f'ing well have played those sorts of games as I describe...sometimes by the way, hiding behind the name of the convoy as they do so.

Definitely not non violence by the way! (these sorts of plays and games).

Blessings.

you know who i am
