Present case numbers for the ?K? variant Super-Flu don't justify the hype, says Dr David Livermore. Perhaps it's the media lust for fear porn, or perhaps the Government's fear of the strike, but it's not a Super-crisis.

Police attack dockers in strasbourg.

category international | eu | other press author Tuesday January 17, 2006 13:11author by insurrection Report this post to the editors

yesterday.

Strasbourg, Austria- Dockers are protesting the EU in Strasbourg which is debating a proposal to "liberalise" European ports.

The dockers know that if this happens they will most likely loose their jobs to private contractors. Thousands of dockers have descended upon Strasbourg. The police have responded with the use of tear gas and water cannons . As a result the dockers have utilized firecrackers, stones and metal missiles, smashing windows and causing "considerable damage". Elsewhere in Europe dockers have been on strike in protest shutting down ports in Rotterdam in the Netherlands, Antwerp in Belgium and Le Havre in France.

A strong left wing dockers union is what capitalists fear the most. They can paralyse any country and win concessions for themselves, plus fair play and wages for all workers through the use of the Sympathetic Strike - or the threat of it.

Jim Larkin knew this.

This is why - when the leaders of Dockers Unions can't be bought - they are destroyed.
