Why protest outside a building thats closed on Saturday?

Those ladies, gentlemen and chimps in the SWP. Or haven't people realised that yet.

Perhaps the building is contaminated with the ghost of generations of stockbrokers.

Who knows?

Is anyone surprised that the left is NOT being taken seriously when ommadawns (excuse my oirish) organise protests that are bound to have minimum or no effect? Maybe someone heard that Saturday is the day that the Stock Exchange dyes the envelopes brown and they're going to catch them in the act?
Who organises these farces? Would you not be better off spending your idle time recruiting some exploited workers to the IWU or ATGWU?

and a bank (of england) and a train station, and a mc donalds. It was a lot of work. it became a riot. that was 1999.
I remember being part of a smaller crowd who also closed another exchange, it became a riot.
that was 2001.
hmmm. Well done, best day to protest the ISE is a non-banking day.
:-)
its 2005.
& by now we all know, that closing these places doesn't actually make much of a difference to the globalised system, and rather affords
the nasty types who never get arrested opportunity to pull fast ones of the international financial speculation type on -
the other nasty types who never get shot at, who rob sums of money in six, seven, or even more figures off of...
i dunno, (the tax-payer?).
& by now we all know, that closing these places on work days, just gives an opportunity to
the nasty types who think they're defending the rights and peace and the security of a widowed pensioner with alzheimers who relies on a neighbour to go to the post office and isn't really that sure about the nursing home, to alienate us all the more for choosing different ways to highlight wrongdoin'.

Well done Dissent and Mobilise!
bring your water pistols & leave your hoods at home.
YOU HAVE SUCCESFULLY CLOSED THE ISE.
