A black and white photo of a snowplow running down a country road, creating a tall bank on the shoulder. The plow is being driven by a Gilded Age editorial cartoon caricature of JP Morgan, and bears an Uber placard. Atop the snowbank are three impoverished little girls with wild hair in tattered dresses. They are being showered in snow by the plow.
I got up at stupid-o-clock to catch a coach from Bradford and joined tens of thousands on Saturday 20th June to march against austerity in London. Making the poorest and most vulnerable pay for problems created by the rich is plain wrong and stupid. We should be protecting our people and services, not cutting and culling them.

Making the poorest and most vulnerable pay for problems created by the rich is plain wrong and stupid. We should be protecting our people and services, not cutting and culling them.
16/04/2016: An estimated 150,000 people marched through Central London to protest against government austerity policies which are having serious impacts on public health, housing, employment, wages and education. Organised by The People's Assembly, the "March for Health, Homes, Jobs & Education" protesters represented junior doctors, nurses, NHS workers, teachers, students, firefighters, disability rights and welfare rights campaigners, local government employees and a wide cross section of aggrieved citizens who claim that they are being unjustly impoverished by an uncaring Conservative government which is purposefully dismantling public services and handing them to private capital to fund tax relief for the wealthiest.
An extra post-Panama Papers data leak flavour prevailed at the protest with many people carrying "Dodgy Dave" placards - a reference to Prime Minister David Cameron's recent painfully drawn-out admission over four days that he has personally benefitted from the use of offshore tax havens set up by his late father.

Class War election candidate Adam Clifford canvases in Soho London 11.04.2015
Cross-dressing Class War election candidate for the City of London & Westminster Adam Clifford held a colourful political canvassing parade through the streets of Soho, loudly and humourously condemning the gentrification of Soho which, he claims, is rapidly erasing the proud counter-cultural history of the area with pop-up boutiques, endless hipster cake shops and ownership by faceless foreign corporations. Working class residents, sex workers and many independent traders in Soho are being forced out of the area by evictions and rising rents as landlords and property developers clamour to increase their wealth at the expense of the poor who are being dislocated and purged from London's most vibrant district.

Anlässlich des Internationalen Weltfrauentag, sind am 08.03.2019 in Berlin rund 20.000 Menschen auf die Straße gegangen, um für mehr Gleichberechtigung von Frauen sowie mehr Rechte für Homosexuelle zu demonstrieren. Zudem forderten die Teilnehmer*Innen auf Schildern und auf Transparente mehr politische und wirtschaftliche Gleichstellung, ein selbstbestimmtes Leben, für das Recht auf körperliche Unversehrtheit, sowie sexuelle Selbstbestimmung. Mit der Demonstration wollten die Demonstrant*Innen zudem ein deutliches Zeichen gegen jede Form von Sexismus, Gewalt und Unterdrückung setzen, die insbesondere Frauen, LGBTQI* (Lesben, Schwule, Bisexuelle, Trans*-, Inter- und queere Menschen) und People of Color betrifft.
Zu der Demonstration aufgerufen hatte das Bündnis "Frauen*Kampftag", ein Zusammenschluss aus Parteien, Gewerkschaften und verschiedenen linken Initiativen. Bereits im Vorfeld der Demonstration hatten die Organisatoren erklärt, es gehe bei dem Protest nicht nur um Frauen, sondern um alle Menschen, die von patriarchalen Strukturen eingeschränkt würden. Seit 1921 wird der Frauentag jährlich am 8. März gefeiert. 1977 erkannte die UN-Generalversammlung den 8. März als Internationalen Frauentag an. In Berlin ist der Tag in diesem Jahr erstmals Feiertag.
Rund 20.000 Menschen sind am 08. März 2019 in Berlin auf die Straße gegangen, um für mehr Rechte und Gleichberechtigung von Frauen sowie aller Lebensweisen und Geschlechtsidentitäten zu demonstrieren. Auf Schilder und Transparente forderten die Demonstranten mehr politische und wirtschaftliche Gleichstellung, ein selbstbestimmtes Leben, für das Recht auf körperliche Unversehrtheit, sowie sexuelle Selbstbestimmung. Mit der Demonstration setzten die Demonstrant*Innen deutliches Zeichen gegen Sexismus, Gewalt und Unterdrückung, die insbesondere Frauen, LGBTQI* (Lesben, Schwule, Bisexuelle, Trans*-, Inter- und queere Menschen) und People of Color betrifft. Die Veranstalter*Innen wehren sich gegen Diskriminierung, sexuelle Belästigung und Gewalt – egal ob am Arbeitsplatz, im Verein, auf der Straße oder zu Hause.
In Redebeiträgen wurde kritisiert, dass sexuelle Übergriffe keine Einzelfälle mehr sind und die herrschenden patriarchalen Strukturen in der Gesellschaft auf alle auswirken. Ebenso thematisierten die RednerInnen, dass Schwangerschaftsabbruch in Deutschland immer noch rechtswidrig ist. Zudem verlangten selbst über ihren Körper bestimmen können und forderten die eine Neuregelung eines Schwangerschaftsabbruchs. Diese gehört nicht in das Strafgesetzbuch, die Paragrafen 218 und 219 müssen ersatzlos gestrichen werden.Wie bereits in den vergangenen Jahren wehrten sich die Redner*Innen die Vereinnahmung des Themas „Frauenrechte“ durch Rechtspopulisten und Neonazis.
Unter dem Motto „Feiern-Streiken-Weiterkämpfen! Gemeinsam voran! Für eine starke neue Frauenbewegung!“ versammelten sich die Demonstrant*Innen am Nachmittag auf dem Alexanderplatz zur großen Auftaktkundgebung. Kurz vor 16.00 Uhr setzte sich der Zug über die Alexanderstraße in Richtung Kreuzberg in Bewegung. Über die Brückenstraße, die Heinrich-Heine-Straße zum Moritzplatz, von dort aus ging es weiter über die Prinzenstraße, die Gitschiner Straße über den Kottbusser Tor. Über die Adalbert- und Oranienstraße ging es zum Ort der Abschlusskundgebung auf dem Oranienplatz.
Zu der Demonstration hatte Bündnis "Frauen*Kampftag" aufgerufen, hierbei handelt es sich um ein Zusammenschluss aus Gewerkschaften, Parteien, linke-, antifaschistische- und antirassistische Gruppen sowie LGBTI-Initiativen. Darunter befand sich auch das Bündnis für sexuelle Selbstbestimmung, die Partei „DIE LINKE“ sowie „Die Grünen“. An einem linksradikalen feministischen Block unter dem Motto „Feminsm is Classwar! Heraus zum Frauen*streik 2019!“ beteiligten sich über 3.000 Personen. Zu dieser Block hatte unter anderem das kommunistische Bündnis „…um Ganze!“ sowie das Bündnis „Nationalismus ist keine Alternative (NIKA)“ aufgerufen. Bereits im Vorfeld hatten linksradikale Gruppen bundesweit zu einem „Frauenstreik“ aufgerufen.
Der Internationale Weltfrauentag wurde auf Anregung der deutschen Sozialdemokratin Clara Zetkin erstmals am 19. März 1911 in Deutschland und in Nachbarländern organisiert. Seit 1921 wird der Frauentag jährlich am 8. März gefeiert. 1977 erkannte die UN-Generalversammlung den 8. März als Internationalen Frauentag an.

“The British are among the worst idlers in the world. We work among the lowest hours, we retire early and our productivity is poor. Whereas Indian children aspire to be doctors or businessmen, the British are more interested in football and pop music”
That's according to compassionate conservatives Kwasi Kwarteng, Priti Patel, Dominic Raab, Chris Skidmore and Liz Truss (2012) in their book en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Britannia_Unchained
Christopher Skidmore (born 1981) is a British politician. He served as Minister of State for Universities, Science, Research and Innovation from December 2018 to July 2019, and from September 2019 to February 2020, during which he signed UK's Net Zero pledge into law. He also served as Interim Minister for Energy and Clean Growth. Currently, he serves as the Chair of the Net Zero review since September 2022. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Skidmore

Jeremy Corbyn confronted with a list of housing estates "socially cleansed" by Labour councils in London.
Protest called by the People's Assembly against the Conservative/DUP coalition government and its policy of cuts, privatisation and austerity. The huge crowd gathered outside the HQ of the BBC - the state broadcaster criticised by many as anti-Labour - before heading to a rally in Parliament Square with music and many speakers from other political parties and social movements.

"Rebekah Brooks must go" chant protesters at News International HQ - London 08.07.2011
'Class War' anarchist Ian Bone mockingly offers a bribe to police outside News International in Wapping
A small-but-dedicated group of protesters descended on the London headquarters of News International in Wapping the day after Rupert Murdoch's News International announced that they were closing down the troubled News of The World newspaper after this coming Sunday's final edition, as their piecemeal response to the phone-hacking scandal which has spectacularly exposed the fact that not only were News of The World (NoTW) journalists at one time commissioning private investigators to obtain thousands of people's mobile phone numbers so their messages and conversations could be spied on, ranging from celebrities, politicians, murdered children and grieving military families to name but a few, but that the NoTW had also been making illegal payments to members of the Metropolitan Police Force to obtain confidential information on the paper's intended victims.
The protesters kept the assembled journalists, photographers and news crews entertained with several light-hearted stunts including waving £10 and £20 notes at the police who had arrived and asking them for confidential information, the handing out of satirical £55 Bank of Wapping banknotes, and handing round Fox's biscuits - a dig at Fox News in the USA.
The activists also demanded an immediate stop to News International's ongoing bid to take 100% ownership of satellite TV company BSkyB. This with came true yesterday after News International announced they were dropping the bid.
Also protesting were several ex-journalists and print-workers who had suffered under Rupert Murdoch's ruthless war with the old Fleet Street print unions in the early 1980's. Others were there to show their disgust at the behaviour of Rupert Murdoch and his family, the destruction of old-style investigative reporting in the print media, and the loss of their pension schemes which happened when a previous Conservative government legislated to allow corporations to raid their employees' pension funds - an exercise in sheer corporate malice which started when the late Robert Maxwell stole the Daily Mirror employees pension fund.

Pay Up! pickets Sainsbury's over employment poverty wages - London, 28.05.2012
Formed by activists from UK Uncut, Occupy, Unite the Union and community organisations, Pay Up!, which plans to go national as quickly as possible, chose Sainsbury's to launch their campaign against "employment poverty" which sees thousands of Sainsbury's shop-floor employees being paid only the UK minimum wage which amounts to £6.08p per hour for over-21s, £4.98p for 18-20s and £3.68p for 16-17 yrs old school leavers. These employees, say Pay Up, should be receiving the nationally recognised "Living Wage" of £7.20 per hour in the regions, and £8.30p in London.
Sainsbury's has seen profit's rise 299% over the past 7 years, whilst their workers on low pay have been forced to accept a pay freeze which, in the face of current inflation, is effectively a wage cut, and a huge number of Sainsbury's full and part-time staff are having to apply for housing benefits and other benefits just to survive, despite the retail grocery giant posting year-end profits for 2011 of £712 million - a 7% increase on 2010, despite the double-dip recession.
It is outrageous, say Pay Up, that some Sainsbury's employees are so badly paid that they are forced to drain the benefits system just to survive, whilst Sainsbury's are turning a huge profit and are planning to increase core spending in 2012-2013 to £1bn and also to increase payouts to their stockholders. The company boasted disingenuously last week that their employees "will receive on average a £600 bonus", which translates to as little as £49 for many employees who are denied enough working hours to sustain a basic living. The overwhelming bulk of the bonus pot will go to the already-well paid managers and directors.

"Rebekah Brooks must go" chant protesters at News International HQ - London 08.07.2011
Anarchist Ian Bone mockingly offers a bribe to police outside News International in Wapping
A small-but-dedicated group of protesters descended on the London headquarters of News International in Wapping the day after Rupert Murdoch's News International announced that they were closing down the troubled News of The World newspaper after this coming Sunday's final edition, as their piecemeal response to the phone-hacking scandal which has spectacularly exposed the fact that not only were News of The World (NoTW) journalists at one time commissioning private investigators to obtain thousands of people's mobile phone numbers so their messages and conversations could be spied on, ranging from celebrities, politicians, murdered children and grieving military families to name but a few, but that the NoTW had also been making illegal payments to members of the Metropolitan Police Force to obtain confidential information on the paper's intended victims.
The protesters kept the assembled journalists, photographers and news crews entertained with several light-hearted stunts including waving £10 and £20 notes at the police who had arrived and asking them for confidential information, the handing out of satirical £55 Bank of Wapping banknotes, and handing round Fox's biscuits - a dig at Fox News in the USA.
The activists also demanded an immediate stop to News International's ongoing bid to take 100% ownership of satellite TV company BSkyB. This with came true yesterday after News International announced they were dropping the bid.
Also protesting were several ex-journalists and print-workers who had suffered under Rupert Murdoch's ruthless war with the old Fleet Street print unions in the early 1980's. Others were there to show their disgust at the behaviour of Rupert Murdoch and his family, the destruction of old-style investigative reporting in the print media, and the loss of their pension schemes which happened when a previous Conservative government legislated to allow corporations to raid their employees' pension funds - an exercise in sheer corporate malice which started when the late Robert Maxwell stole the Daily Mirror employees pension fund.
