Protest Vince Cable in Birmingham: Tuesday 16th November 1pm

15-11-2010 09:16

The Con-Dems are launching an onslaught of cuts and privatisation and a vicious ideological attack on our welfare state.

Reflections on the invasion of Millbank Tower

11-11-2010 22:08

During yesterday’s protest against cuts to education crowds stormed Tory headquarters. Windows where smashed and offices destroyed. As a result we can witness the capitalist system bend and buckle in its attempts to dismiss these acts of anger as illegitimate.

Amongst the 1,000s that played some role in the invasion of Millbank Tower, were workers and students from all areas of society. We condemn both the media claim that a small group of anarchist antagonists where responsible (juxtaposed by their own images showing thousands rallying around the building) as well as the notion that the students involved are part of a privileged class. The idea that working class youth are some how exempt from the desire for education is both naive and patronising.
