Stuff the cuts, and stuff the politcal parties
15.09.2010 21:25
But let's be honest. The Tories are going to make huge cuts. But Labour were going to make huge cuts. Slightly less huge, but still huge. And the Lib Dems were always going to go along with anybody that gave them a sniff of power.
All three parties were and are determined to make us - the people they claim to represent - pay for the greed of the bankers and those that make money from a completely corrupt financial system. None of them have proposed that the bankers et al should clean up the mess they have made in any meaningful way. They all say 'we have bailed out the banks, now you, the public, have to pay for that.'
So yes, stuff the cuts. But stuff the Tories, Labour, and the Lib Dems as well. All of them. This is not a party political issue. It's an issue of those that have power, and those that do not.
We can do better then them all. By ourselves.

The conference is in Birmingham not Manchester

Unless there has been another agreement with the police that not protesting within a mile of the conference centre is still a bit edgy and you're going to do it over 90 miles away instead.
(Only joking, but kinda not.)
Can I still get a lift for the Direct Action Bloc?
