Ask yourself a question.
A relative, a friend, a neighbour, a co-worker or a stranger on a bus says to you that they were pregnant but exercised their right to choose and secured a termination. Would you then imprison them for 14 years? If you wouldn’t jail someone for exercising their right to choose, would you want to be associated in any way with their jailors?
If the answer to the above is ‘no’, then you might consider joining the 6th Annual March for Choice will take place in Dublin this Saturday, 30th September. We anarchists of the Workers Solidarity Movement will be assembling with thousands of other pro-choice people at the Garden of Remembrance on Parnell Square from 1.30pm, before we march on Dáil Éireann at 2pm.
We anarchists of the Workers Solidarity Movement think that access to abortion should be free, safe and legal. An anarchist society is one in which all people – men, women, trans* – are free to make choices about their own lives. This includes choices about whether or not to become pregnant, remain pregnant or to have children by any means. Continue reading We will March for Choice. Will you?.. Sat, 30th Sept. Dublin

The students have confirmed that they will keep up the occupation of the historic building of the University of Barcelona to make it a meeting point for the people mobilized.The Lleida and Girona Universities are also permanently occupied Continue reading ‘Spain’ accuses 100,000 Catalans of Sedition..

El texto reproducido a continuación incluye la Introducción del libro y unas líneas de la sección del Capítulo I titulada “La tradición de Agosto Negro”.
En conmemoración a la tradición de Agosto Negro (Black August) que surgió en los años 70 para honrar a George Jackson y otros compañeros del movimiento revolucionario dentro de las prisiones de California, nos solidarizamos con decenas de presas y presos políticos del Movimiento de Liberación Negra encarcelados en las prisiones de Estados Unidos durante décadas.
En este libro compartimos el espíritu revolucionario de personas de enorme compromiso y valor, con impresionantes historias de lucha en sus comunidades y dentro de las prisiones. Estos hombres y mujeres se han mantenido dignos e inquebrantables ante todo tipo de trato cruel y degradante.
A pesar de la guerra desatada contra ellos a través del programa COINTELPRO del FBI y los continuos esfuerzos de la policía organizada y los medios comerciales para borrarlos de la historia es posible encontrar información verídica sobre sus casos en algunos libros, documentales o sitios web, pero casi todo en inglés.

note: there is a huge amount of Catalan news right now, with the referendum 6 days away. This is a sample only. Today the University was occupied and there was a mass postering around the city, etc.
The General Confederation of Workers (CGT) of Catalonia has presented a notice of call for general strike. The protest must be ratified by union members’ assemblies, sources from the organization’s secretariat said.
According to the union secretary general, Ermengol Gassiot, the general strike has been set for October 3 “because of the legal deadlines to be followed.” This call is made, for two reasons: “on the one hand, to claim the social and labor rights violated by the labor reforms since 2010 and, on the other, to fight against the cuts of fundamental rights and against the presence of armed forces in our places of work “.

Metro Seoul, the 25 m strong prosperous capital of Sth Korea is just 35 miles from the border with long range artillery, drones, nuclear missiles, thousands of tons of chemical weapons, nerve gas, etc ready to deliver in just minutes after Trump attacks.
Ten million innocent people could die in the first hours of a war with North Korea. With its back to the wall the dictatorial Northern regime would certainly unleash armageddon. The Chinese would certainly intervene as history proves (to them) that such a war is a covert US attack on China. 
The peace treaty proposed by China, Russia, Germany and now France must be signed by Trump. The US has never made peace 65 years after the war ended broken every agreement, and forced North Korea into a corner.
The US did have a nuke deal with N Korea; then cynically trashed every single clause of it (see here).. Continue reading US must sign Peace Treaty. 10 million of us Could die in First day of a Korean War

Greenpeace activists block shipment of thousands of polluting VW motors
A CARGO ship carrying thousands of Volkswagen diesel-fuelled cars to Britain was forced to sail to another port yesterday after it was seized by environmental activists.
Around 25 protesters used kayaks and boats to reach the 23,000-ton car carrier in Sheerness Port in Kent at around 8.30am, environmental group Greenpeace said.
They climbed the ship and hung from the 27m-high unloading door, vowing to remain until Volkswagen “takes its toxic cars back to Germany.”
The ship turned around and sailed to Margate with the protesters still hanging on, according to the charity.

By Alejandro López in Spain Dockworkers in Catalonia’s two main ports, Barcelona and Tarragona, are refusing supply services to vessels carrying riot police and paramilitary Civil Guard units sent by Spain’s Ministry of Interior to crush the secessionist referendum.
This comes amid a rapidly escalating political crisis in Spain caused by the central government repression of the independence referendum called by Catalan separatist forces for October 1.
Just over a week before the scheduled referendum, Spain’s Interior Ministry has activated one of the largest security operations since the end of the fascist regime of General Francisco Franco in 1978. It is employing three tourist cruise ships to house more than 4,000 police sent to Catalonia. Two of the boats are anchored in Barcelona and the third in Tarragona.
