Open publishing was disabled on this site in mid-July 2016 as there was a very low volume of original grass roots news reports from activists being posted and the collective running the site was dwindling as people were working on other things.

#BLUEHAND, the online trolling neo-Nazi hate cult, has been poisoning social media with despicable racism, sexism, homophobia and Islamophobia, trolling minority groups within the UK on social media since 2014 with hateful and criminally inciteful content. Bluehand uses two websites, bluehand.org (and recently bluehand.co). The original website www.bluehand.org is registered to worldwide charity, United Way (Piedmont), their promotional website site hijacked by a senior United Way manager who calls himself "James Bond".

#Bluehand's cyberfuhrer is one of two American IT experts working for the United Way charity - specialist information technology manager David Poe of UPIC, or the finance / IT manager he took over from who was Denny Boll, both of whom are still active United Way managers. Only these two individuals had access to the www.bluehand.org website which was registered by international humanitarian charity for use by the United Way's Piedmont branch, meaning one of them is the far right troll leader.

Jack Buckby, the neo-Nazi ex-BNP candidate standing on his own against the Labour candidate in the Batley and Spen parliamentary constituency, has sickeningly tweeted appalling lies about the murdered MP, horrifically and absurdly accusing the late Labour MP Jo Cox of being "complicit in the rape of children", using her picture in a vile smear video shared on social media. The shameless LibertyGB candidate thrown out of university in Liverpool for racist activities, crudely exploits Jo Cox's death with a stomach-churning lie, spitting bile on the grave of the recently murdered MP, untruthfully linking the late MP with the child sex abuse scandal of Rotherham. The suspect in Jo Cox's murder, Thomas Mair, is currently detained awaiting trial in the autumn time, the continued suffering of the Cox family heightened with Buckby's horrific and deceitful slur.

WESTBORO Baptist Church openly support the Orlando nightclub mass murder where fifty LGBT clubbers got murdered by the armed fanatic, tweeting that the killer "came from God", and that the victims will "rot in hell". At the same time as the Florida shootings, another fanatic, this time a white, Christian fanatic, was tooled-up with automatic rifles, handguns and bombs, ready to do the same thing to LA pride, and yet, the media refuse to label the second man a terrorist, proving double-standards when it comes to reporting news which does not correspond with a global anti-Islam agenda, and the War On Terror.

This Saturday, the openly racist and homophobic neo-Nazi gang of the South West Infidels and their cohorts in the EDL goosestep through the multicultural streets of Bristol in the misguided belief that Hitler sympathisers are in the majority in South West Britain. Led by German SS fetishist Ed Dowden, a loner who spends all day trolling his local newspaper the Bristol Post posting hatred against Bristol's Somalian community, his legion of straight-arm saluters are well and truly set for humiliation by local antifascists who, like the vast majority of Bristolians, well and truly reject fascism outright, and will not stand for a moronic rabble of drunken fascist imbeciles shouting obscenities at non-white people, Muslims and refugees. Whilst are SWI are openly homophobic, many are believed to be closet homosexuals, and according to the Bristol Post, their march will coincide with the arrival of a fleet of stark-bollock-naked hunky, well-toned male cyclists on a protest bike ride, a "timely coincidence" will put immense pressure upon the bigots to keep their sexuality under wraps.

The lunatics have taken over the "asylum", hardcore Hitler-salivating, rabid neo-Nazis that even the likes of the EDL had thought were history, returning with a vengeance in Leeds, taking over the Vote Leave campaign in the city, much to the stonily silent indifference of Michael Gove and the Official Conservative Party. Ignore it and it will go away, is the attitude of the Vote Leave bigwigs, who have assumed ostrich mode as damage limitation, even though the story refuses to go away, and more and more hardcore Hitler-lickers are gathering each and every week on Briggate, Leeds creating a dangerous situation for Jewish and ethnic minority shoppers.

Wayne Jarvie AKA Jorvik Son, was out campaigning with Vote Leave last Saturday - a horrific old-school neo-nazi who sickeningly celebrated the Middle Ages genocide of Jewish people in Clifford's Tower, York, before his appalling anti-Semitic account got taken down by Twitter. Read more >>

COWARDLY ageing Hitler admirer / UKIP supporter Les Seavor from Huyton, Liverpool, has been sending death threats to FEMALE TWITTER USERS who he has promised to track them down and "give them a kicking".

Everybody must report him ASAP to the Merseyside Police. His address and phone number are listed in the telephone directory, 192.com, so he will be extremely easy to arrest and take into custody. Stalkers who threaten violence must be arrested ASAP.

Everybody must also remember to contact Twitter to ensure Les does not get his neo-nazi account www.twitter.com/ublocks back.

The hour is almost upon us, your opportunity to destroy Tommy Robinson's Pegida UK movement on a chilly, rainy February afternoon. The neo-Nazi scumbags are not marching in Birmingham City Centre because they are shit scared of ANTIFA, especially as a handful of bourgeois UKIP racists in expensive suits are expected to join the action, cowards who talk big about persecuting Muslims and destroying Islam, but in the cold light of day, will shit themselves once they catch sight of an angry antifascist ready to chase them off the streets. Dover was big, however stopping Pegida in their tracks will be momentous. Antifascists were too slow off the mark to stop the EDL in the early days, part of the reason, there was only the UAF mobilising at most if not all counterprotests. Now ANTIFA and the Anti-fascist network are taking the lead, there is much more resources for direct action, Dover and before it, Liverpool, landmarks in the physical struggle against street fascists.

A senior Buddhist faith organiser for the Keighley and Burnley areas, "Tyke Strivers" AKA Leo Robinson, is a vile anti-Muslim bigot (and avid fan of David Icke's divisive conspiracy theories), who is helping to campaign locally for Tommy Robinson's Pegida UK Organisation. Managing a local Buddhist meditation retreat where worshippers are unaware of his extremist political leanings, Leo Robinson's twitter account suggests he is planning street-level anti-Muslim campaigning locally in Keighley in the coming months to divisively to help turn community against community, in a town which a grooming gang were recently jailed. UK Buddhists are peace loving people and are on the whole anti-racists, thus Yorkshire's Buddhist communities must be made aware of the extreme hatred of the administrator of the Keighley and Burnley Kadampa Buddhist Centres ( a registered charity). For a United Kingdom faith leader to spread hate and intolerance on social media, and use his public accounts to support Pegida's march in Birmingham, is totally unacceptable. All worshippers locally must be made aware of this hate-preacher in their midst. Read more >>

EMERGENCY CALL-OUT IN BRADFORD THIS SATURDAY. ARRIVE MIDDAY OR EARLIER. This is your chance to take to the streets to defend Bradford from facsist invasion as the violent drunken racists of the EDL will be allocated a pub to get drunk and march through the streets of Bradford along Hall Ings, shouting racial abuse at passers-by. Stay at home another week, as Bradford's diverse community needs antifacsist volunteers to defend the city from organised race hate thugs, especially post-march, when the police subside, when they are at their most dangerous.

Officially (on paper at least) UKIP still maintain they refuse to allow members of fascist groups into their party, but a mere cursory glance at UKIPers on Facebook and Twitter reveals hundreds of party publicists who trumpet not just UKIP but a whole host of far right organisations across the board from the EDL to the FN. So much so, that the common retort /excuse of UKIP's senior members is that EDLers, Britain Firsters and BNPers are "pretending to be UKIP to discredit the party", even though many of the aforementioned neo-Nazi UKIPers are regularly liked and retweeted by top ranking UKIP officials, giving them the social media seal of approval.

Here is the latest from the register about the arrest related to the latest imc server seizure. The arrested man is a sys admin who hosted several servers including the indymedia server. Apparently this is enough to get you held for 8 hours and bail conditions. But the comments get it -  http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/02/10/indymedia/comments/ Read more >>
