#spanishrevolution, Taking the Streets Today..

The Spanish OCCUPY movement, 15M, is re-taking 100’s of streets and squares today, despite a ban, to protest the ZERO CHOICE elections. Yesterday 1000’s gathered in Madrid and elsewhere to protest arrests in Thursday’s students General Strike. Health Centers and Hospitals have recently been occupied, and the law has decided NOT TO EVICT buildings occupied after the massive Oct demos to house people evicted for mortgage arrears.…

El movimiento 15M está en plena acción, con centenares de actos , la toma Asamblearia de Plazas en todo el país por motivo de Las Elecciones, una mani de miles por los detenidos en la Huelga General Estudantil de Jueves 17 Nov, vigilias por la muerte del Sistema de Salud Pública, y varios occupaciónes más….

The right wing Partido Popular are expecting a majority, while offering only blood sweat and tears to ‘make us competitive’ and ‘restore market confidence’. (Really to protect their own fortunes, mostly inherited from the fascist 40 year occupation or gained by blatant corruption which is rife in the party.)

Spain: Farsa electoral/Both Parties to cut dole /health /schools..

” el PP cuando entre: bajar de inmediato el sueldo a los trabajadores públicos -otra vez; quizá un 10% en esta ocasión-, recortar aún más en Sanidad, Educación y, ay, en Obra Pública -porque Alemania y Francia están muy sensibilizadas con esos aeropuertos muchimillonarios sin pasajeros y otras estúpidas infraestructuras infrautilizadas hechas durante la época dorada del ladrillo. Habrá una subida del IVA y seguro una reducción generalizada de subvenciones y ayudas. Todo esto llevará a una mayor contracción económica y aún más paro, con lo que se recaudarán menos impuestos y se tendrá que pagar más en subsidios – en algún momento se hablará de reducir el subsidio de desempleo y el salario mínimo. Y eso en un contexto donde los productos básicos subirán de precio.”

Mientras el 15M está an acción, con centenares de actos , la toma Asamblearia de Plazas en todo el país por motivo de Las Elecciones, una mani de miles por los detenidos en la Huelga General Estudantil de Jueves 17 Nov, vigilias por la muerte del Sistema de Salud Pública, y varios occupaciónes.

Discovery Channel BANS Climate Change News

Discovery Channel has stated that it was taking out the last episode due to ‘scheduling conflicts’, but others believe the channel is cutting the episode ‘On Thin Ice’ because it deals directly with the impacts of global warming on the Arctic and Antarctic.

My bet is that Discovery and other channels were yet again quietly bought off by the Climate Change Deniers, financed by the swill of 100s of billions profit made by the criminal oil companies every year, while paying NONE of the costs to the climate, environment and pollution caused ill health and deaths which they caused.

And the US is not alone, around one third of the networks to air the series worldwide have opted on accepting the series from the BBC without the last episode.

“It’s a bit like pressing the stop button on Titanic just as the iceberg appears,” a representative with Greenpeace told The Telegraph. “Climate change is the most important part of the polar story, the warming in the Arctic can’t be denied, it’s changing the environment there in ways that are making experts fearful for the future.”

There is a cheap, CO2 and pollution free alternative to oil, at least for transport, suppressed by the oil companies.. That’s NH3 fuel, check it out here. note. posts on NH3 the CO2-Free fuel now have their own blog HERE.. http://co2freefuelexistsnow.wordpress.com/ Continue reading “Discovery Channel BANS Climate Change News”

Occupy Movement grows despite cops and media

occupy grows — Cops and media FAIL to crush OWS

The Occupy Wall Street movement, despite the efforts of the mass media to belittle it and the efforts of brutal police officers to scare it away, is growing and growing fast. There are a lot of stories from the past few days that we haven’t been able to cover. Check these out:

London: Huge ‘Bank of Ideas’ Occupied.

Bankrupt Banks to be Occupied Centers?

Junction of SUN STREET/CROWN PLACE north of Liverpool street station

The Occupy protesters have set up a new “Bank of Ideas” website.

Brilliant work . Huge building with over 500 rooms seized by Occupy london as a ‘BANK OF IDEAS’ for the winter. Near Liverpool Street station – all support needed. Tops – keep the rolling occupations mobile. Very encouraging move – congratulations!.

A car load of City police have just turned up. For some reason the police are heavily armed – even a machine gun. No idea why they’re here.

Bank of Ideas

Welcome!

The Bank of Ideas is situated on Sun Street, Hackney in an abandoned office block purchased several years ago by the bank UBS. It is an enormous space complete with a 500-seater lecture hall.

It has been opened to the public for the non-monetary trade of ideas to help solve the pressing economic, social and envionmental problems of our time.

There is also room for community groups, youth clubs, nursuries and other public services that have lost their space due to Government spending cuts.

Artists, performers and creatives are welcome to come entertain and to help transform the space. We also encourage games, workshops and skillshares on anything from yoga to yahtzee.

The only prerequisite is that this space is not for financial transactions. Trade in ideas or skills, but no one should need to pay to take part in the Bank’s activities.
