Ethnic Cleansing in London

Local authorities are shifting the plebs out of the City to various locations around the country. This "in defiance" of toothless ministerial "demands" that people should be housed locally.



Dave Defends Dodgy Dictator Deals

Not surprising, but good to have some background data from Constantine Report confirming everybody's suspicions about our multimillionaire arms dealing PM's actual ideology:fascism.

This week, Dave offered to arrange "safe passage" for Syria's genocidal president, Bashar al-Assad. The head of Human Rights Watch said offering immunity to Assad would give him a licence to kill (more of) his opponents.

Dave has restricted access to all journalists (except for the BBC's Frank Gardner), during his current arms dealing trip in the middle-east .

Alan Moore Releases Anonymous/Occupy Single

As well as hosting the exclusive premiere of Moore's track, NME has an "extra-special competition with prizes that supporters of Occupy and Anonymous – or fans of V For Vendetta will not want to miss".

The Occupied Argus will be checking NME.com tomorrow for details of how to enter...

Anonymous Bonfire Night: Protests & Hacks

"Trending" quote from the Vice article:
 
"It’s been said that Parliament is a kind of theatre, one in which the British establishment put on a democratic charade by taking the piss out of each other’s haircuts while agreeing with each other on the big issues – the old ideological battles between left and right being a thing of the past. If that’s true, then it’s mirrored in the UK's current protest scene. It’s basically a pantomime where everyone assumes a role, hams it up and then goes home to prepare for the next performance."
