(en) avtonom.org: May Day in Helsinki [machine translation]
May Day rally in Helsinki began with laying flowers at the monument to those killed in the
civil war in the concentration camps and the revolutionaries and their families.
Presentations were made by representatives of anarchist and communist movement. In his
speech, the representative of the anarchist movement spoke of the need to continue working
to combat, because in spite of some achievements which we have compared with the beginning
of the century, it is foolish to think that victory is achieved.
At about 10 am on the square in front of the station began to gather to demonstrate the
left. In the past year, the organizers sent a column of anarchists in the very end, so
this year it was decided not to enter into negotiations with someone and personally lead
the demonstration. Approximately at 11:00 under the energetic rhythms of samba band march
began. Along the way, the demonstrators chanted slogans and demonstrantki fireworks and
burned. Several paint bombs were thrown into the windows of banks and other capitalist
structures, but in spite of these actions demonstrate a whole was peaceful - the police
did not intervene. In the hands of anarhist_ki carried banners with slogans: "Work and
struggle since 1886," "I hate the new government. Even now." "Those whom you have chosen -
do not govern". It ended the procession of street party in one of the city's parks.
