"At 3:45 last Saturday afternoon, over 40 people, many of them wheelchair users, locked themselves to the gates at Westminster Abbey. A truckload of tents and camping equipment had already been brought onto the green. Disabled People Against Cuts (DPAC), facilitated by Occupy London and UK Uncut, planned to set up a three-week camp on the space less than a water cannon’s reach of the Houses of Parliament"

Would be so awesome - if that predicted 2 million - all showed up - and in doing so spurred/motivated millions more to do the same - at the same time.

The UK Unions are saying 1m+ but the Tory/ Liberal Democrat Government (for The 1%) only concede 500,000 & say it was worst turnout for such a national strike yet. However both BBC and Independent TV News are covering the story extensively because nearly everyone nearly everywhere, gets that this Strike against Austerity and For Living Wages - is a Big One !!! The actual turnout will take some time to ascertain but I only saw anything bigger than this in 2002 before Iraq was illegally attacked & more than 2m people marched in the UK alone !! Solidarity To The 99% Struggle ! + Also fyi, please see ...

Actually, it's the continued spread of libe(R)tarians.

I'm not at all surprised you failed to notice that.

[-] 4 points by shadz66 (19985) 10 years ago

'Libe(R)tarians' is your neologism snooz and just seeks to absolve Dem Party Pols (as opposed to long suffering Dem voters) and conflate Libertarians with - ONLY The Repugnants !!! It further actually reflects your own visceral rejection of your own former youthful flirtation as a young man with 'Libertarianism' and probably with Ayn Rand's deranged but seductive writings !! 'Neoliberal', IS the 'right' word {pun intended} but ''I'm not at all surprised you failed to notice that'' ! + fyi, a' la OWS & protesting in the streets, see ...

respice, adspice, prospice ...

Whatever the fuck you want to call it, it's still a bunch of fucking libe(R)tarians.

All over the World.

it ain't politic dip shit itr's a fucking phil;osophy.

Besides what the fuck do you really know about democrats or republicans that you didn't learn second hand.

Besides nothing at all?

There ain'y no fucking democrats in England, but there sure as hell are bunch of fucking libe(R)tarians.

I even found 'em for you.

Enjoy your denial, while you can.

The Furious Rage Of A Wronged Human Child :

So 'Enjoy youR Denial, while you can' .. u fkn oaf !!!

temet nosce ...

[-] -3 points by shoozTroll (17632) 10 years ago

That would be you.

Nothing more than an oaf in denial, trying to change the subject.....

That's a very oafish behavior and not in the least the behavior of a bully.

So, what did you say you knew from actual first hand experience, besides nothing?

[-] 2 points by shadz66 (19985) 10 years ago

Chicken-shit ''Asshole'' even !!!

Your previous b-s reply before you went to bed in a belligerent, cranky, drunken stupor .... was as idiotic as the one above & see what happens when I reply to your forum posts ?! Bet you'd like to hound me off the forum like you did Odin, hchc & Builder (to name but 3), right ?!! So face it .... you're an oaf snooz !!!

I can replace your removing my replies all day & every day - if you like ~{~ but lucky for you, it's Brasil v Netherlands in the Football World Cup later, lol. STOP being a bully & an oaf snooz - it isn't collegiate !!!

"The Furious Rage Of A Wronged Human Child'': https://vine.co/v/MxB5AAKwEU0 ;-( .. was my reply to your cranky brainfart above & I used the same ''A'' word that you liberally used in reply to another poster on this thread because it applied to you & do notice the ''quotation marks'' !!! Instead .. and I had to read what you've just spewed above more than once to get what you're trying to say here .. you want to think that I'm ''that guy too'' !! No, snooz - I do not need another handle to expose your Gate-keeping Ass and any alluding to my 'honesty' while making shit up - ONLY reflects on you !

Do note our 'to and fro' from the get go on this thread to see why I did ''default to name calling'' & as for 'subject change' - well, I had posted as per the OP but you did get cranky and turn it to shit .. as usual because in a nutshell, you are a cranky oaf and now you have taken to replying to comments that you, yourself have banned and removed !!! Read what I said in my previous comments snooz & STOP trying to be so oafish !! Taking me on, when you are making shit up and unsure of your facts, will end badly !

I DO NOT 'deny' that ''Neoliberal Economic Policies'' and ''Neocon, Imperialist Foreign Policy'' and Right-Libertarianism ... is right at the heart of the myriad problems The 99% face across the world. However, I don't go for your neologism. That word accurately reflects your own personal political position AND your psychic-turmoil over your youthful indiscretions and flirtations with Randian-Libertarianism but the rest of us are not obliged to accept it .. especially as you're trying to only reference it to The Repugnants whilst absolving The Democraps from all the anti-99% b-s going on.

Alluding to my 'honesty' and saying that I'm in 'support of stalkers and trolls', when you have put 2 and Two together and come up with 22 is your prerogative but have you EVER said anything in criticism of The Democratic Party on this OWS forum ?!!! Or have you ever made one post in criticism of Israel ?!! Gatekeeping for The DNC or Likudnik Zionism is your right - BUT do not expect such shilling not to be pointed out and resisted ! Furthermore, consider IF you can ...

Greece needs new protests v austerity

Greece still being bullied by oligarchs to impose austerity:

Below a status on that protest restart

A start. Growth & momentum of that movement is their/our only hope.

End Austerity! Support unions! Invest in the people!
