Get your tanks off our lawns. posted by Richard Seymour
Via Meaders . It seems that the police have suddenly come over all gorblimey about the Stop the War rally planned for the G8 protests, and are trying to ban it . What could it be now? Last time it was the fucking grass they were worried about, do they now think we're going to storm Edinburgh Castle and start firing the cannons at the G8 Summit?There have been national and local StWC demonstrations all over the country, dozens and dozens of them. Not one has resulted in disorder or violence, despite my best efforts. So, what's the beef?
On a side note, anyone who wants to prevent London Fire Brigade taking a fire engine away from Bethnal Green where it is sorely needed, you can join this blockade in just under two weeks. Galloway, the FBU reps and a bunch of local residents will be there to try and stop them taking it.
