have you seen the footage of spanish para-military police shooting miners in their homes?
fk sake, the situation is extremely serious – life and death!
…and the miners in spain remain isolated, like the striking steel-workers in greece!
aren’t there unionised miners in Germany? steelworkers too! imagine if the militant german metal-workers had – during their recent “Warnstreiks” against the employers, if they said that an hour of it was in solidarity with the sttel-workers’ strike in greece!
european Bourgeoisie would shit it man!
I’ll make every effort to be there, if i can find out just where it is: they bulldozed BBC ting there – can see from front of Nature Centre! spose I’ll just ask but my minutes are short…..
