The Dublin Anarchist Black Cross was in attendance of this year's anti-internment march in
Belfast on the 7th August. Prior to the march taking place the state put a block on the
march from going ahead refusing to give the march organisers permission to march. This
block did not deter people from coming out in support of the march and come out in
solidarity with political prisoners in prisons in Ireland. ---- Over 1,000 people marched
from the Busy Bee in Andersonstown in west Belfast, down the Falls Road towards Belfast
City Hall. When the march reached the end of the Falls Road the Police had the road
blocked with a line/siege of armored Jeeps and armed police preventing the march from
reaching its destination. ---- The march could not go any further, a makeshift platform
made from a wooden box was used by speakers to say a few words about the different
campaigns they were from. There were speakers from the Justice for The Craigavon Two
campaign and the Free Tony Taylor campaign. After the speakers were finished the march ended.
It is the 45th anniversary of internment - administrative detention - imprisonment without
trial, which was used to try break a movement that is struggling against British
imperialism in Ireland. The decades on since then not a lot has changed in Ireland and
through the world, many people still being unjustly locked up and incarcerated..
Police were originally set up by the ruling classes to suppress dissent within the working
classes and among slaves in the USA who were attempting to escape slavery. Prisons and all
the repressive apparatus of the state are designed to control and pacify the dissent of
oppressed people. Only through organised collective action can we overcome these forces to
achieve a decent humanity--our ultimate unifying desire.
In the South of Ireland community activists regularly face daily harassment of state
forces, the lackeys of British and capitalist imperialism in Ireland. Similar to our
republican up north any move for social justice is repressed and isolated through smear
campaigns and Gardai harassment of honest, sincere activists.
The campaigns for political prisoners to released and freed is an international campaign
for freedom, our suffering comrades in the occupied territories of Palestine to the modern
strike against slavery, the Black lives matter movement in the US, ours, the Irish
struggle is a historic movement for dignity and human rights.
The struggle for ultimate, complete freedom is not an easy one, many among the crowd that
day know intimately the suffering and loss of struggle, the sacrifices made- Without which
we would know know no decency or respect in our lives. However those losses cannot be
forgotten,the families left behind, a path forward must be forged in respect to their
memories.
It is upon all here to move forward for justice and dignity. An injury to one is an injury
to all.
Banner drop in Dublin
Ahead of the march Dublin saw a banner drop in solidarity with the incarcerated Craigavon
two, from on top the Ambassador Theatre, Parnell St, Dublin by Dublin Anarchist Black Cross.
The aim of today's action was to highlight the serious miscarriage of justice against John
Paul Wootton and Brendan McConville, who have been incarcerated for years, under degrading
conditions, on spurious and falsified evidence.

The weekend of 5 and 6 was held the gathering of 200,000 not to Bure (100 after 000 steps
in June 2015) in the wake of which is mounted while a moment of debate and convergence:
Bure Anticapitaliste. Back on these days. ---- The success of the weekend 200 000 steps
which gathered a thousand people in Bure 5 and 6 June surely due to the pressure on the
region last year. The nuclear waste landfill project Andra (National Agency for
Radioactive Waste Management) Cigéo, dates back to 1994 [ 1 ]. Since September 2015 the
agency has accelerated its presence and its work, both geological and for serving the site
(road widening) or digging (galleries and descent). Even more recently, a forest area
intended to house the ventilation shaft (wood Lejuc, in the municipality of
Mandres-en-Barrois) was partially screened and cleared. The forest in this area is about
to be shaved, and illegally since 'Legal original residents is underway against the
grabbing (this is a forest land exchanged against another; the work were passed at a
council held at 6 am, in the back of elected officials opposed). All components of the
fight is very mobilized in recent months. Participatory projects, legal appeals and
protests have marked the year 2016. There has been a great convergence between
associations and collectives of people and opponents, peasant front, etc., gathered to say
no to Andra.
Many similarities with Notre-Dame-des-Landes
The fight seems so well organized that it is growing, showing many similarities with
Notre-Dame-des-Landes, and even many concrete contacts and mutual support. Here too there
is a wide range of fronts and mode of action. Outside the network Sortir du nucléaire,
most of the historical group gathered in the coordination Bure Stop! : Antinuclear group,
nature and environment Meuse Lorraine Mirabel environment, several associations of
original residents or elected officials (such as Cedra, Collective against the burial of
radioactive waste, which, for example, refuse landfill but is less radical on the issue of
nuclear waste management), but also Bure free zone (BZL), the group stayed at the house of
resistance, which since 2004 is a solid base of information and self-organization. To
complete this coordination, in recent years, the autonomous movement joined the resistance
to base the Luméville Station, on private land and lent by Opponents but Andra wants to
get to transit shipments to site.
A Spring of Peasant Struggle
Finally, the importance of the peasant front is crucial since it is to them and them that
bought Andra (or extorts) agricultural land. They were little until recent years have
reacted to Cigéo project, while others did not know what to keep or feared to oppose. But
some also settled knowingly and, for others, Opponents make sure to go to them, to inform
them on various occasions. Furthermore, in April 2016, Bure has hosted a Spring of peasant
struggles, which consisted of a "radiant planting" potatoes to "stick potatoes Andra" and
another of barley and oats (1 hectare) " to root resistance grabbing more than 3 000
hectares of land by Andra." however, a remarkable detail, the presence of a tractor Young
farmers, farmers' union FNSEA close, but with proper banner. The fight Bure also has its
active political support which the NPA trend Claire Commercy [ 2 ].
It is on private land with a sexagenarian that met the meetings of the anti-capitalist
movement, anti-authoritarian and internationalist, in the small village of Naix-to-Forge.
The first day, the debates were devoted to the project company and the question of the
strategy. This is especially the experience of Rojava that has permeated the debate, based
on an analysis of the democratic revolution, dealing with the gradual emancipation of
women from the 1980s to reach the experience of municipalism, and the question of its
application in countries at the heart of capitalism such as France. The evening ended with
a meal, opportunity to meet and strengthen our ties, the projection Kurdistan: the war of
the girls, then a concert of revolutionary choirs Nancy, very mobilized.
The second day saw the area occupied by three collective excursions to publicize the Andra
facilities (construction sites rather than the "laboratory" boasted). The original
residents of Luméville station turned on them a satirical video of zombies, witness the
eclectic nature of combat. Hiking converged on the assembly point in a field in Bure,
close to a thousand people. Delicious food canteens, pancakes, children's workshops,
information stands, renewable energy bikes, fanfare, the gathering had all the friendly
village festivals, to really mix the local public and public activist. Indeed coexisted
families in the region of activists from throughout eastern, Paris and Nantes, and even
German and Luxembourg anti-nuclear. The words of catches and organizers were held to eight
tractors, ending in a concert of pans. Given the magnitude of the rally, we can deplore
the few media relays. This meeting finally allowed to mount emergency actions to thwart
the work of Andra in the forest of Mandres-en-Barrois: June 9, the activists prevented the
start of work by blocking access logistics platform (see picture) by barricades, trenches,
sabotage of a logging truck trailer, gesticulée conference on nuclear front of tens of
guards and mobile guard. A call for support on June 19 was also shot.

Negotiations were attempted today between couriers and management, resulting in one of the
negotiators being "deactivated" from the Uber network. The delivery workers then decided
to visit many of their restaurant customers to explain their actions. The restaurant flash
mobs will go on until @UberEATS pays a minimum of the #londonlivingwage to its couriers
and stops victimising riders! #uberstrike
