The sugar tax sums up Britain's descent into a technocratic dystopia, says Dr David McGrogan. While our Government does almost nothing well, it remains a world-leader in passive-aggressive, surreptitious nudging.

The US-UK trade deal announced today is a clear win for Trump, says Sam Ashworth-Hayes, leaving the UK worse off than in March and opening up UK markets in exchange only for reducing recently imposed tariffs.

As in Canada, so in Australia, the crushing defeat of the conservative Liberal Party by Labour has been widely blamed on Trump. But in truth, Peter Dutton and his team only have themselves to blame, says Prof James Allan.

INVISIBLE HANDS AND IRON FISTS

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday March 21, 2002 19:14author by Joe Carolan - Globalise Resistanceauthor email globalise_resistance at yahoo dot comauthor address The Other World Which is Possibleauthor phone 087 9032281 Report this post to the editors

Anti Capitalist BUSH Monster to be built for Mayday

NCAD Thomas Street, 7pm, Friday 22nd March Globalise Resistance heads will be building a huge Bush Monster for three upcoming events- the national Anti War demo on April 27th, the Trade Union march on May 1st and the Reclaim the Streets Party on the May 6th Bank Holiday. The Bush Monster will have two claws- the invisible hand of the market pulled by sweatshop slaves and workers in chains, and the iron fist of the military pulled by orange boiler suited, sensory deprived prisoners, Palestinians and the war dead. These packhorses will be supervised by the military wing of the United Corporations of America, who will carry the flag of the multinationals either side.

The aim is to link the war and imperialism with exploitation and capitalism. We're trying to make a big puppet or float, with two huge arms, hands or claws - IRON FIST AND INVISIBLE HAND. We'll need loads of help to get them built!

We'll also need chains, the iron ones preferably, as well as costumes for the military, the Camp X Ray prisoners, the (corporate) branded sweatshop slaves etc etc etc.

This Friday in NCAD at 7pm, we'll be kicking off,
starting work on the flags of the United Corporations of America. Standard stars and stripes, with the white stars replaced by corporate logos. If yer artistic or in the mood to help out, please come down. We'll also make a start on the Al Queda costumes, recycling the old Ministry of Disaster jumpsuits. So anyone with loads of orange paint feel free!

What do the rest of ye Indymedia heads reckon? Anyone any other ideas? How big can we make the Monster? Do we need wheels?!!
