Sorry folks, I couldn't resist the pun. As it goes, London N7 has a very good Member of Parliament who works very hard to represent one of the most diverse populations in the UK. Back bench Labour MP Jeremy Corbyn. 4 January 2010.
Protesters blocked the roads outside Parliament.
The annual May Day (International Worker’s Day) march from Clerkenwell Green to Trafalgar Square took place.
Also organised (by the organisers of the April Fool’s Day G20 demonstrations last year) were four carnival parades headed by the Four Horseman of the Apocalypse. With the general election on May 6th, each of the parades ‘dragged’ an effigy of a political leader to Parliament Square to be symbolically ‘executed’. Gordon Brown (Labour Party), David Cameron (Conservative Party) and Nick Clegg (Liberal Democrat Party) were ‘dragged’ from their respective party headquarters by the red, silver and green horses, while the black horse ‘dragging’ Nick Griffin (British National Party) joined the May Day March.
A party in Parliament Square took place with music, samba band and Maypole Dancing. Anarchists blocked the streets around Parliament Square. Unlike the G20 Protests last year, Policing was non confrontational and there was no violence.
Heavy rain brought an early end to the protest.
Nick Clegg (Liberal Democrat leader) is 'executed'.

Breakfast at Hospitality House Shelter - Prepared by Glide Church for free to homeless residents. Grits with margarine and a few link sausages. Residents also get fresh loaves of whole wheat bread every day and very strong coffee. This is about the daily standard unfortunately. Residents and staff are grateful to Glide for the free food, but just wish it was more nutritious. Glide's dinners served here are usually awesome. Beef Stew, big potatoes, stir fry and lots of spinach and vegetables. This shelter does a great job on food portions and they really care about their residents.

Breakfast at the Next Door Homeless Shelter-Episcopal Community Services. Cold cereal with powdered milk and coffee with powdered milk instead of creamer. (During the time when our food was stolen by staff and a couple of corrupt homeless clients that stuffed our good food into backpacks; sold them on the streets in the Tenderloin and the Fillmore. Thanks to 'the evil cook' and Mr. Hodges the oetty thief).

Lansing Michigan.
People protesting the absurd, unjust and cruel budget legislation passed by the Legislature and new Governer Rick Snyder.
I had to go. This Republican/Conservative nonsense has gone way to far. This so called fiscally responsible budget burdens the poor, working people, pensioners and state workers with $1.7 Billion in taxes and benefit cuts, while giving $1.8B in tax cuts to corporations. What kind of budget cutting is that? The legislation also strips state workers of the right to union protection and allows the governor to replace locally elected officials. No wonder people are in the streets. This is baldfaced facism.
I had to go. Sorry, I normally don't post this kind of thing, but, this is beyond the pale.

This is written on the main street of Thessaloniki, Greece's second largest town, some months ago. At the moment it seems to be more than ever up to date. Last year, after A. Grhgoropoulos' murder by a policeman and the world-famous riots, Greek society is strongly biased between anti-immigrant-conservative & radical-liberal point of views. After Greece's debt crisis, this bias is getting stronger and stronger every day. This period seems to be the introduction into a new historic era, not only for Greece, but also EU and the whole Globe since Europe's South countries (known as P.I.G.S.) is the field where the financial war between US dollar & Euro currency is gonna take place. Stay tuned. Any act of solidarity is welcomed...
Food Delivery Day at Next Door Shelter - Episcopal Community Services. Note the boxes of fish and huge sausage or beef patties that we have never seen on our table. Staff and corrupt homeless residents used to cart out boxes of food stashed in the laundry room trash can and smuggled out by staff at 4am or by clients in backpacks right after breakfast. Stealing from the homeless... one cannot be a lower form of life than to steal tax payer funded meals from the homeless in San Francisco. Been like this for years they tell us...
