1. Barcelona rises up against Public Transport luxury prices 1. BARCELONA RISES UP AGAINST PUBLIC TRANSPORT LUXURY PRICESFrom January 2014, Barcelona’s public transport price has increased again . Travelling by public transport in Barcelona today costs 71% more than ten years ago. The fare of the two most used travel cards – the T-10 (ten tickets) and the 30/50 (fifty ticket in thirty days, a kind of worker’s ticket) – have increased 5,10% and 8,4% respectively. A comparision between salary and a one-way city’s travel ticket cost in several cities around the world shows that Barcelona has the lowest salary and the highest ticket price, becoming a luxury -as in the Catalan TV sketch.

Haiti”s wonderful Cardinal in Church of the Assassins
A little rant against the Church, Slavery, Racism and Capital, then a reblog of Adrianne Aron’s classic essay.
Haiti will get a CARDINAL. Pope Frances announced, on the 4th anniversary of the earthquake, with tens of thousands still not rehoused, and the 10th anniversary of the criminal US organised Coup against The President of the Poor, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, himself a former salesian priest.
Cardinal Langlois is a wonderful man, and so modest, and the western media have been given free rein to gush over him, this is ‘our boy’ and can be trusted not to rock the boat for ”our” corporations, like Aristide did. (see here Haitians oppressed to be robbed again in gold rush).
Both the wonderful cardinal and pope Frances love the Poor, indeed they are desperately seeking new support from the poor and uninformed as the Catholic Church crashes in popularity, even being condemned by the UN for making it illegal to report the rampant sex crimes against children by its criminal clergy.

31 Dec, midnight.. Global Noise Demo for Prisoner Solidarity
Global Noise Demo for Prisoner Solidarity: New Year’s Eve 2013/14
Inside and Outside Prisons, Jails, & Detention Centers around the World
from Anarchist News
This event is inspired by the call out for a day of action against prisons in the New Year of 2010/2011, which happened again in 2011/2012 and again last year, & remains relevantly unchanged.
Noise demos outside of prisons in some countries are a continuing tradition. A way of expressing solidarity for people imprisoned during the New Year, remembering those held captive by the state. A noise demo breaks the isolation and alienation of the cells our enemies create, but it does not have to stop at that. Continue reading “31 Dec, midnight.. Global Noise Demo for Prisoner Solidarity”
STOP Eviction of ‘Rote Flora’ Squat Center: Riots to STOP POLICE THUGS!
Dozens of police injured as they attack eviction protest in Hamburg (PHOTOS, VIDEO)
Over 8,000 protesters have clashed with riot police as they protested against the planned eviction of squatters from a popular social centre, and against the eviction of hundreds of Syrian refugees from their homes. The largely peaceful protest erupted following a baton charge, and use of teargas, and water cannons by the police. The protesters responded by building barricades, throwing stones, fireworks, and bottles. It is reported that over 500 people has been injured, and around 150 arrests made.

Hamburg residents have clashed with police in what is the most violent protest in years, with scores injured, after more than 7,000 took to the streets to protest plans to evict squatters from an old theater building, which is a leftist cultural center.
Police and protesters give conflicting figures, putting the number of participants anywhere from 7,000 to 10,000 people, with more than 100 policemen and a yet unspecified number of protesters injured in Saturday’s civil unrest.
Police said that some 4,000 of the protesters were from extreme left-wing groups. The violence involved stone and bottle-throwing, firecrackers and smoke bombs. Police responded with pepper spray and water cannon. Continue reading “STOP Eviction of ‘Rote Flora’ Squat Center: Riots to STOP POLICE THUGS!”
Victims no longer: Spain’s anti-eviction movement
The Movement of Mortgage Victims is one of Spain’s strongest movements. Carlos Delclós talks to PAH organizer Elvi Mármol about the key to their success.
The story of Spain’s economic, social and political crisis is one about property, need and value. And at the heart of that story lies a question that is familiar to the point of cliché: what makes a house a home? Continue reading “Victims no longer: Spain’s anti-eviction movement”
Buy me Nothing PLEASE.. Adbusters Buy Nothing Xmas
Ho ho ho Jammers!
Are you going to participate once again in the doomsday consumer fest that Christmas has become … or are you going to try do things differently this year?
Buy Nothing Christmas is the surest way to leave zero-footprint on the planet, but the truth is not everyone is ready to go cold turkey from gift giving. But each of us can still make a radical move by upholding this single vow …. repeat the following out loud in front of a witness, “I shall not visit a single mall or box store this Christmas. I hereby swear-off Amazon and all the other online mega stores! I pledge to go indie and local or bust!”
Avoiding the nerve centers of corpo-capitalism and going local and indie with every gift you buy will magically change your mood and inject some authentic spirit into your gift hunting.
And while you’re in the tone-shifting mood, why not slip a ten-dollar bill into the hands of the next homeless person you encounter!
Then give $100 to your favorite NGO.
Go deep … give till it hurts … (just not to a megacrop). That impulse to give beyond the comfort zone is where the real magic of the holidays lives.
Kanpai, prosit, krisimesi emnandi, l’chayim, Joyeux Noël!
Here’s to a corpo-free holiday this year!
