Higher Towers Have Fallen: Squat resists High Tension Line

We are writing from the squatted mansion /Mas Castelló/, near to
Orriols, Catalonia. 2ddded73982e4449926b4d7a2915aa20_XL

On the back of the energy and enthusiasm of the camp against the MAT
that was held in Fellines, we have squatted a space to give the struggle

experiences of struggles and collective living that breaks away from the
models imposed on us by consumer society. Continue reading “Higher Towers Have Fallen: Squat resists High Tension Line”

repsol mataNoruega  se retirará de Repsol , por su maltrato a pueblos indígenas ?

ONG afirma que Consejo de Ética de Noruega recomienda añadir Repsol a la ‘lista negra’ , pero el Ministerio no se mueve

in English below translation thefreeonline.

Hace algunos años , el Consejo de Ética que da recomendaciones al Fondo de Pensiones Global de Noruega ( GPFG ) comenzó a investigar la compañía de petróleo y gas Repsol . El objetivo declarado del consejo es evaluar ” si la inversión en empresas específicas es incompatible con las pautas éticas establecidas [del Fondo]  antes de hacer recomendaciones al Ministerio de Hacienda, y la razón por la que estaba interesado en Repsol fue a causa de sus operaciones en una parte remota de la Amazonía del Perú habitada por indígenas que viven en ” aislamiento voluntario ” que no tienen contacto regular con nadie más.

1235308_206843849483180_604843799_n

Manila, Philippines – In a country where millions of people survive on just a dollar a day, Janet Lim Napoles’ claims that she comes from a humble family are hard for many Filipinos to accept. Her 23-year-old daughter Jeane, fresh out of college in the US, owns a $1.89m condo at the Ritz-Carlton Residences in Los Angeles. That’s apart from the $9.5m worth of properties the family has across California. Continue reading “‘Pork-barrel protests’ rock the Philippines”
