For yet another year organized the state festival and the bosses, the Thessaloniki
International Fair, starting on 10 September. - An annual effort on the part of
sovereignty present in landscaping terms, the treaty-vise that burdens the social
majority. - Displaying So performers policy bleeding and death, with hypocritical
yposchesiologia, trying to convince that the interests of the elite are identical to those
of plebeian layers, reproducing the myth of national unity, trying to convince that social
problems are resolution process. ---- And if indeed this were the case, how are they
oppressed not only not to see "progress" in their conditions of life, but to experience
the ever growing brutality and subjugation to the requirements of the state and capital?
The reality and situation shows itself in the most emphatic way the savage attack faced by
society today. Wars, millions uprooted, concentration camps, establishing slavery
conditions for billions of people worldwide, headlong pursuit of economic bleeding,
unfreedom policy.
The world of power is bankrupt! Located in decomposition. He can not produce nor
perspective, nor hope. All we can produce a lot of repression persons, whether this is the
ftochopoiisi social majority, the suffocating control and supervision, or the "civilized"
bombs of the West, the military intervention of the fascist state of Turkey in Syria, the
Islamofasistes of ISIS Because the basic direction that continuous individual state and
capitalist entities in the West, regardless of political and economic management, is the
campaign for the establishment of a modern totalitarian attempt of establishing emergency
system and the construction of the internal enemy who propagated ideologically via an
absurdity, that sovereignty will protect us from the problems and contradictions that
creates itself. The slayer of society, he is the doctor.
That is why uprooting of resistance and the transformation of society in galley and horror
jail and submission is the response of the rulers in the continuous sharpening of social
discontent. In Thessaloniki particular venue of the exhibition, on 27 July, police
undertaking large scale developed by evacuating three squatting migrants and refugees
shelter, the Orphanage of "Hurriya" and the occupation Av. Nike. An undertaking which took
place immediately after the international mobilization of the No Border Camp, through
which we were able to Anarchist Political Organisation for placing their common struggles
between all the oppressed, and to link the race solidarity to refugees and immigrants in
the struggle against modern totalitarianism, borders and war. By suppressing and
propaganda offensive launched by the State attempted criminalization of solidarity and
connection between the oppressed, the weapon is turned against every oppressor and every
power. To bend the struggles, the state went to dozens of arrests and demolished
solidarity spaces While targeting squatting by the evacuation reinforced by known fascist
dregs, the fascists, who attempted arson of immigrant housing occupancy Notaras in Athens,
where by chance there were no casualties. The government proved emphatically that the
state has continued regardless of their respective political managers and clearly gave the
message that the migration management must be passed only by the hands of power.
Unraveling the thread of grim social reality, we recognize that the hares and stole it
examines that power is nothing more than a scam. A scam designed to convince us that we
need to master and accept the brutality of the state and capitalism.
For us all the above are those in which we should oppose. To fight against state and
capitalist machine that produces the death, against modern totalitarianism With common
local and migrant struggles we have to construct a new world of equality, solidarity and
freedom. To defend our structures, for vindication of our comrades. For the continuation
of the association of all the damned race and oppressed of this land ,.

The native Irish ruling class have long been prone to parasitical activity, enriching
themselves by acting as agents of absentee landlords or today as law firms for
multinationals keen to avoid and evade paying taxes. As landlords agents that involved
breaking down the doors to evict those who were literally dying of starvation. The modern
form is less hands on but the repercussions are similar, the 13 billion they don't want to
collect from Apple are the same billions whose absence has people dying on hospital
trolleys. ---- The modern myth of Irish nationalism denounces those who acted as the
landlords agents and celebrated rebellions against their power. But anyone who watched the
government ceremonies marking the 1916 anniversary rebellion couldn't help but notice how
awkward the ministers appeared and the considerable effort made to keep the public out if
sight.
The equivalent parasites today are not simply robbing us, they are robbing people across
Europe and indeed the US. It's not just our old people who are suffering on hospital
trolleys so that our wealthy elite can take 0.001 cent on each tax euro evaded or avoided.
And that elite (legally) awards the ministers with seats on boards once they retire
and on occasion get exposed as rewarding them illegally with brown envelopes of cash while
they are in power.
Online polling that shows a lot of people support the governments refusal to take the
Apple billions demonstrates that far too many of us are playing along. This is a national
version of the cute hoor infection that sees Michael Lowry get elected in Tipperary
despite the findings of the Moriarty Tribunal. Our so called national interest translates
to little more that the interests of developers to rent buildings and law firms to charge
company registration fees. Now as then there are always plenty around to look with envy
on the comparative wealth of the landlords agents and desire to join them rather than
abolish them.
Multinationals in general and tech multinationals in particular don't want to contribute
to the costs of providing healthcare and education to the population through taxation.
Silicon valley is dominated by a particularly poisonous capitalist ideology that allow's
people to be forced onto the streets in the name of competition. Like aristocrats of old
a few try and assuage their guilt though charitable work,the equivalent of the public
water fountains erected in town squares across Ireland by the local landlord.
Their paternalism which seeks to have people dependent on their charity is one and the
same with their avoidance and evasion of tax. And with their attempts to destroy
collective labour rights, whether that be minimum wages, collective bargaining through
union membership or making workers ‘self-employed' to avoid health and safety legislation.
In that context the silence of the Irish trade union leadership on the Apple scandal is
all the more shocking. Whatever about giving us a few jobs the silicon valley tech culture
of which Apple is a central part is deeply anti-workplace organisation, in most companies
you would be fired for even telling another worker in the same company what you are paid
such is their fear of workers organising together.
Let's be clear, Apple CEO Tim Cook tried to bully us by talking of the 6000 workers Apple
employs in Ireland. This isn't some sort of freebee in return for us turning a blind eye
to their refusal to contribute to healthcare. Those Apple workers work just as hard in
Ireland to boost profits for the largest company on the planet as they would if they
worked somewhere that didn't facilitate tax avoidance. Apple isn't giving ‘us' anything
in return, those workers create the very profits that Apple is so keen to avoid paying tax on.
That's a key understanding. This isn't Apple V Ireland or Ireland V the EU. Rather on
one side are a very small number of very rich and powerful people. And on the other are
the vast majority of those of us living in Ireland, Europe and indeed the planet. The
vast majority need to band together and end the run of the corporations and their local
agents.

UPDATE 6 SEPTEMBER 2016: Direct action taking place across the country as people protest
against austerity cuts to disability rights and independence, the capricious cruelties of
Work Capability Assessments by over-worked under-skilled private profiteering companies
focusing on clearing backlogs rather than making fair assessments of ability. Fight the
cuts! ---- At the end of last year the UK became the first country in the world to be
investigated by the United Nations for grave and systematic violations of Disabled
people's rights. ---- This is as a direct result of the disproportionate impact of
austerity on Disabled people and ideological attacks waged by the Tory government that
have seen Disabled people and the poorest members of society hit by cut after cut after cut.
In 2012 DPAC in partnership with UK Uncut were able to use the media interest around the
London Paralympics to draw attention to the disgraceful practices of Atos, one of the
Paralympic sponsors and the company responsible for carrying out the notorious Work
Capability Assessment that has caused so much harm and suffering.
Two years later Atos pulled put of the contract to run the WCA which had become unworkable
due to the success of the campaign against them.

This September DPAC will be using the interest surrounding the 2016 Paralympic Games in
Rio to draw attention to the cumulative impact of the cuts on Disabled people that are
taking Disabled people's rights back decades with attacks in every area of our lives from
education to independent living to employment to income.
Whilst we will not be protesting against the Games themselves, we will be using this
opportunity to raise awareness of the increasing numbers of Disabled people whose access
not only to sport and recreation but also to basic human rights such support to eat, drink
and use the toilet is being taken away as a result of the cuts.
Below are the events we have planned but please do organise your own and let us know so we
can publicise.

"We here at Brixton Buzz have grown rather fond of our local persistent squatters, who
have proved ready and willing to take over empty/derelict buildings and then decorate them
with versions of their much travelled political banner... Their latest - and most
comprehensive - effort can be seen in Acre Lane, with the multi coloured banner
referencing some of the issues affecting communities in the area..."

Between destructive capitalism of our lives and the planet and a market democracy,
authoritarian and elitist, we need an alternative. discuss it together. ---- The news of
the coming months will be saturated by the Presidential, when each candidate is sure to
promise us that with him or her: "It's going to change! " ---- Yet the movement against
Labour Law revealed in many employees, unemployed youth and their aspiration to another
company. Thousands of people have sought to invent another in the struggle democratic,
more horizontal and direct. The idea that the way to get satisfaction through the balance
of power and action has grown. ---- LORIENT ---- 22 September 2016, ---- from 19 hours,

Active and active in the movement against the Labour Act, it is necessary for the ongoing
struggles to come to make a first critical assessment of the 6 months of fighting: trade

Also, we will present policy proposals and practices that we defend well as the contours
of a global alternative.
