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.

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.

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. In Berlin ist der Tag in diesem Jahr erstmals Feiertag.

On the May Day Parade.
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.

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.

#CopsOffCampus protest - Bloomsbury, London 05.12.2013
Students protesting against government plans to privatise the student loan book to profiteering financial institutions just to fiddle the government's accounts, and against plans by the University of London to eradicate the University of London (Student) Union - ULU - marched in protest around the sprawling Bloomsbury campus.
Previous peaceful protests by the students in the last month have had an extraordinary response from the University management who requested the Metropolitan Police come on campus and forcibly remove the protesters, which resulted in the now infamous camera footage of a police officer apparently punching a student in the face, and, as has been reported elsewhere a shocking amount of physical violence used by campus security guards and police.
A second protest a couple of days later saw Student Union president Michael Chessum arrested off campus by police. Chessum was served a court injunction - which expired on December 4th - banning him from protesting on or around the campus.
The #CopsOffCampus protest on the 5th of December saw more angry confrontation between students and police later in the evening around Euston Underground Station. There were 38 arrests and one protester injured by the police.
A national day of action has been called for Wednesday December 11th., for students to voice their anger at the disproportionate use of violence against them by the police acting as agents of the University authorities.

"Rebekah Brooks must go" chant protesters at News International HQ - London 08.07.2011
Anarchist Ian Bone holds up a "Class War" newspaper 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.

On March 15, 2015, 22 events took place in the UK, Ireland, the US and Canada to raise awareness of homelessness, under the umbrella heading, "March for the Homeless." I attended the protest in London, opposite 10 Downing Street, where campaigners had arranged for homeless voters to register for the General Election on May 7, and there was a free food kitchen. During the protest there was a brief roadblock, as protestors -- including Class War activists -- blocked Whitehall, carrying a banner celebrating the life of revolutionary socialist Lucy Parsons.
Homelessness has increased by 55% since the Tory-led coalition government came to power, and, of course, has increased specifically because of the introduction of certain disgraceful policies -- the benefit cap, which attempted to portray those receiving benefits as the problem, when the real problem is greedy landlords; and the bedroom tax, whereby a cabinet of millionaires, with more rooms than they can count, passed legislation forcing people on benefits living in social housing who are deemed to have a "spare room" to downsize, even though there are few smaller properties to move to, and many people, treated as worthless "units" by the government and kicked out of their homes, have had to be rehoused in the private sector, thereby increasing the overall housing benefit bill.
In addition, as the Streets of London website notes, there are also "around 400,000 ‘hidden homeless’ in the UK, living out of sight in hostels, B&Bs, ‘sofa-surfing’ or squatting."
I was pleased to see that many hundreds of people turned up, including representatives of some of the many housing campaigns in London -- campaigners fighting to save the Aylesbury Estate in Walworth, in south east London, residents from the West Hendon Estate, who are fighting to save their homes, the E15 Mums from Stratford, who are campaigning for more social housing, and the Sweets Way tenants from Barnet, recently evicted by developers.
What we need, I believe, are politicians prepared to invest in a huge social homebuilding programme, so that as many people as possible can be housed adequately and securely in properties that should cost no more than £100 a week. It is possible, and it needs to happen. All that is preventing it, to put it bluntly, is greed, the vile, dead-eyed greed that is such a disgraceful emblem of modern Britain.

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. In Berlin ist der Tag in diesem Jahr erstmals Feiertag.

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.

A picket line; the picketers are holding militant hand-lettered signs. Behind them, in a red halo, is a cigar-chomping boss figure.

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.
