Rostock Sunday. Global Agricultural day of action.

04-06-2007 23:36

More puppet mayhem.
Despite its claims to the contrary the G8 has done bugger all to alleviate starvation in the world. In fact the number of people starving in the world is now at an all time high. Sunday was the day nominated to draw attention to all things unfair in the world of agriculture so a roving demo toured the town to tackle the issues

Rostock: rap against fortress Europe

04-06-2007 20:46

Video
Thousands of people demonstrated against the Border Regime in Rostock this afternoon. There was a rally at a detention centre in the suburbs of Rosstock with speakers from the detention centre. What followed was a lively march into the centre of Rosstock, although the police didn't want the march to reach it's intended destination - the city's harbour, where the police provoked a surreal riot on Saturday.

The march organisers were apparently told by the police to follow an alternative route, but they refused and thousands of people made their own way to the harbour with the help of a sound system playing some banging tunes and an amazing political rap about Europe's border regime.

G8 Migration Demo ends with RTS Streetrave

04-06-2007 20:41

Quick pics of today's march in rostock, which after being blocked by police for hours was dispanded by the organisers. As hundreds and hundreds of people and police flowed through the streets it really didn't seem like the demo had ended - then a sound system turned up to capture the crowd and lead them to the closing concert at the harbour...

The Saturday riot in Rostock (2)

03-06-2007 19:52

So you thought that the Stasi had been disbanded?
So we’ve back at the hostel for around an hour and a half after the first trouble when the phone rings. ‘The cops are going fucking mad!’ we are told so it’s back to the rally to see what is going on? A car has been torched since we were last here and the water cannons are out.

The Saturday riot in Rostock (1)

Charge of the shite brigade.
So, at the end of the demo there was a riot. Which has now been widely reported by the corporate media as being deliberately provoked by tooled up agitators in Black. Change the word black for green and you start getting a bit closer to the truth.

Clowns force closure of the G8 (probably).

03-06-2007 16:51

.
It is now confirmed that the clown infection has spread as far as Germany. Following the first recorded outbreak in London in 2003 it was thought that the spread had been contained. Now it seems that the condition is reaching epidemic proportions will little or no indication as to where it will end. It is thought that the disease has become airborne due to activists traveling to summit mobilisations on budget airlines. “Many of them don’t even know they are carriers” said one expert who declined to be named.

Fortunately following the outbreak of the Samba virus a few years ago there are now many safeguards in place to protect the movement from this phenomenon. Symptoms of the illness are easy to spot and following treatment victims can make a full recovery. It remains unclear whether activists will in time develop immunity to the condition. People are being advised not to panic as the situation is being closely monitored. Although the situation in Germany had passed the previous peak witnessed in Scotland in 2005 no one is using the word pandemic yet…..

Rostock Saturday. The international demo.

03-06-2007 16:32

Quite a lot of people...
The march moves at a snails pace due to the samba bands and sound systems that are dotted along the route. No one seems to mine as it has a carnival atmosphere and there is still no sign of the predicted rain
