200 people turned out compared to a population of 124,000 (including 25,000 students who we would expect to be supportive).

Why do you think the support was so low ?

Very surprised

Not sure why you think 200 people is a failure, it was a fantastic turnout and a clear message to the Tories that just because they now have a majority on Parliment they should not think they have very long in power. I see a massive rise in working class GB right now with a people's revolution probably closer than it has been for two generations. The Labour party was rejected by the British people because it has moved away from its Trade Union and Socialist roots to be Tory light when in fact as we saw in Scotland what the people want is Socialism.

In my opinion this march is only the begining with groups rising up all over this country and saying "No' to the Tory cuts and rejecting Capitalism in all its forms. The people are on the rise and the day of revolution is close, a lot closer than many realise.

What happens when the factories you have occupied produce goods that nobody wants anymore, will people be laid off or fired ? Who will make that decision and why ?

What will you do about those factories where the workers are not interested in running them, what if they like their bosses, will they be compelled to occupy them, what happens if they refuse, will the occupation be enforced and who by ?

Your comments are childish and irrelevant (who on earth likes their boss !!! )

The workers will do what needs to be done and if there are elements that refuse then yes we may need to establish a people's militia to ensure the collective good is maintained, that is just common sense !

Let me guess you see yourself and your mates as being the leaders of this people's militia making the decisions for the rest of us and deciding what is the "greater good" ?

I would suggest a little less time on the internet making posters and a little more time spent reading about Anarchism.

Leadership and Anarchism

04.06.2015 09:07

There is an obvious role for a Vanguard leadership within Anarchism because without leadership the people are unable to move forward. It may well be me who is at the forefront of that leadership as I have skills and abilities that make that viable but it could equally be others if they can prove their credentials.

The weakness of Anarchism and by extraction anarchists is it and their inability to recognize the need for leadership at times in human development.
