In 2019, there are many thirty years. Among these anniversaries and the thirtieth
anniversary of the first congress of the Confederation of Anarcho-Syndicalists - its
branches were then at least 62 cities, many thousands of activists participated in the
demonstrations. But the first legal anarchist groups began to take shape even earlier, in
1986-88, in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Kharkov, Irkutsk, Tomsk, Novocherkassk ... It seemed
that the ghosts of Mikhail Bakunin, Peter Kropotkin, Nestor Makhno, Emma Goldman and
Marusya Nikiforova again stand up over the country in full growth. ---- About how all this
happened, what crises, failures and victories have accompanied the anarchist movement of
the USSR and Russia over the past decades, will tell Vlad Tupikin, the former "Secretary
General" of the Confederation of Anarcho-Syndicalists, a member of the editors of the
anarchist publications "Community", "Will" , Utopia, one of the pioneers of Web 2.0 in Russia.

The union high school student MNL, National High School Movement, which was named a few
months ago UNL-SD, for Union Nationale Lycéenne Syndicale et Démocratique, was born from a
split of the Union Nationale Lycéenne in 2016. This union, which claims to be union of
struggle and social transformation, had a funny shock last May ... ---- Indeed, members of
the MNL learned that one of their executives (Federal Head) was not only at the National
Rally (RN), but in addition to that close to Generation Identitaire, a fascist group that
has been talked about on many occasions these last years. Shortly after, they learned that
two other executives were close to the RN, and that one of them was quite influential in
Generation Nation (former National Youth Front), the young organ of the National
Gathering. directed by Jordan Bardella.
Several MNL anti-fascist activists then seized on the problem, and were able to organize a
vote of the federal referents of the organization to determine if the values of the
National Gathering were in contradiction with the values of the union. . Unfortunately for
them and them, the vote was inconclusive, since out of 15 federal executives, 5 voted yes,
5 voted no and 5 abstained.
At the end of July, these three sympathizers of the RN are finally excluded following a
decision of the National Office (BN), and train with them a hundred members of the MNL,
including about thirty in Finistere, where are two of the three frames, the other being in
the Aude. It should be noted that of the hundred, a good part probably had to leave not
for political reasons in the strict sense, but because of their affinity with the three
exclu.es, who did not fail to pose as political victims of an intolerant BN.
The extreme right reinforces its presence among high school students
Following their exclusion, these three individuals then tried to infiltrate another union
high school student, the FIDL (Independent and Democratic Federation High School), but
effective communication between the MNL and FIDL has allowed them to be excluded directly
after their accession. Nevertheless, there are currently some executives within the MNL
who were not in favor of their exclusion, and there is no guarantee that the far-right is
not trying to infiltrate the high school trade unionism again.
One can safely assume that part of the far-right has realized the activist potential of
youth, especially with the December high school movement, which was largely concentrated
in working-class neighborhoods. but also in rural areas, where the extreme right is more
established and has sometimes tried to approach the high school students of the movement.
While in Bordeaux, the French Action was twice surprised at the end of the year to
distribute his nauseating leaflets in front of high schools, it is Génération Identitaire
who went to stick his stickers on the facade of a high school in Auch in December, while
trying to build relationships with high school students on other occasions. And this kind
of example does not fail. Not having a high school organization,
Difficult to assert that this is a conscious strategy, anyway, these events should
encourage unionized or non-unionized students to reconsider the issue of anti-fascism, and
will likely have an impact. on the development of future unitary vigilance and training
frameworks on the subject. Moreover, some high school trade unionists seem to think that a
good measure to take would be to involve their structures in the inter-union association
VISA (Vigilance and Antifascist Trade Union Initiatives). To see where this leads, and if
it will help to repopulate the antifascist struggles in youth.
Faced with infiltration, do not leave the field
As for our prospects as revolutionary groups, it would be relevant to take the measure of
this threat, and not to leave the field to the fascists, nor to leave the organizations
high schoolers alone in this fight - leading for example upstream work Regular
politicization in front of high schools, dismantling reactionary and fascising ideas, in
particular by recalling the actions and the historical role of fascism, and on the largest
possible scale. Working on easily appropriable arguments, as well as on the production of
militant material that responds directly to this threat while integrating it into the
capitalist context that gives rise to it, can be tactical orientation tracks, on which we
will work soon.

The Social Revolution led by the Kurdish popular movement in northern Syria is in grave
danger. The dictatorship of Recep Tayyip Erdogan in Turkey, which develops a bloody
irregular war against the Kurdish population in the east of the country, weakened by the
economic crisis and the growth of political opposition following the frustration of its
massive electoral fraud plans in the past Regional elections, is launched to a new
occupation and conquest of the territory of a neighboring country, as it did last year
over the virtually annexed region of Ildib. ---- The revolutionaries of the Democratic
Federation of Northern Syria were able to build in the midst of the bloody civil war that
plagues the country, a space of peace, freedom, female participation and multicultural and
multicultural autonomy, an alternative space both facing the barbarism of the Islamic
State (EI) as of the repressive and xenophobic dictatorship of Bashar al-Ásad and the
local tyrannies, whether religious or military of the diminished Free Syrian Army, armed
by the Gulf powers.
At a time when the corrupt Turkish State cooperated, financed and armed from the shadows
the terrorist forces of the Islamic State, the popular forces of the Rojava region
resisted and defeated the fundamentalist outpost on the ground. At a time when the world
witnessed the genocide of the Yazidi people undertaken by the forces of ultra religious
conservatism amid the complicit silence of the Turkish State, the Popular Protection Units
(YPG) and the Women's Protection Units (YPJ) of Rojava they solidarity and restrained mass
murder with the strength of the organization and solidarity between peoples; amid the
resurgence of oppression of women and ethnic minorities in the Middle East of which Turkey
is a paradigmatic case, the population of the autonomous region, of Kurdish majority,
Today the conservative government of Donald Trump in the United States, agrees with the
Erdogan satrap, the withdrawal of the limited symbolic and logistical support of the US
Armed Forces to the Democratic Federation, the first line of defense of the peoples of the
region against the Islamic State. At the time this was a tactical alliance to those who
were in need of turning to Kurdish revolutionaries, whose physical survival was threatened
by the ISIS offensive, a relationship that took advantage of the blind and opposing points
of the imperialist policy of the United States, without compromising their political
project, the commitment that today makes meat in direct democracy, federalism, feminism,
environmentalism and socialism, which they summarize in the program of democratic
confederalism.
At the moment the Turkish State, which has the second largest NATO army and is
structurally committed to State Terrorism against its own people, initiates in an act of
open international piracy a military offensive against Rojava, an invasion and territorial
annexation shameless, that will unleash a humanitarian catastrophe of enormous proportions
in an area already punished by the conflict and the commercial blockade imposed by Turkey
itself, with hundreds of thousands of people forced into exile and hunger, of which the
Turkish State, with its Rogue act, clearly illegal and illegitimate, will be responsible.
Today the Kurdish revolution prepares to resist. It needs our solidarity and support
worldwide, the denunciation and strong condemnation of the colonialist policy of the
Turkish State, a redoubled commitment to the struggle and popular organization in all
corners of the world.
Today more than ever: Long live the Kurdish Revolution!

This Tuesday, October 8, around 5:30 am, the gendarmes began the expulsion of the " free
hamlet of Amassada " in Saint-Victor-et-Melvieu, Aveyron. Activists have been fighting
for more than four years, opposed to the project to install a mega electric transformer,
carried by RTE (Transmission Network). ---- The rumors circulating for several days were
confirmed yesterday when large units of mobile guards arrived on the Larzac, Millau and
Saint-Rome-de-Tarn, neighboring town of Saint-Victor. This marks a term after the numerous
false alarms, raids or trials that the struggle has been undergoing for a year. ---- For
more information: " Amassada: the time of occupation " , Libertarian Alternative, March
2019.
On the side of the bad guys: 150 mobile cops of the anti-ZAD cop Antoine Berna , supported
by two armored vehicles, more than 300 cartridges of tear gas, the helicopter (at the end
of the game) and the presence of the prefect (Catherine Sarlandie de la Robertie with his
little Hermes scarf and his Twitter account).
Opposite: a hundred activists, the occupants and occupants of the site, residents and
inhabitants of the village and surroundings, members of the Confederation peasant who
arrived to defend the ZAD, a hunting horn ... and barricades. The town hall (positioned
against the project) has reaffirmed its support for the Amassada and made available the
village hall from Tuesday to welcome supporters and the press.
Appraisal: A tank that the cops burned themselves, a cop in a ditch and another " fell "
in a barrel of 200 liters of water. In our ranks: two guards, some scratches and inhaled
lachrymos, songs, solidarity.
The course of events is to follow on the site of the Amassada
Zadstes occupied the roof of one of the buildings
cc Prefecture of Aveyron
Besides this, it is necessary to note the evolutions of the strategy of destruction of the
occupied zones. The prefecture has communicated a lot to say that the evacuation had
proceeded without injuries, and in complete control. In fact the mobile gendarmes were not
there to board us (too much) to hit or shoot (still 3 lachrymos per person). They did not
even embark the last 6 and last militants perched were on the roofs. Feminist activists,
however, copiously insulted them for four hours, going so far as to show their buttocks
(tagged) to the aristocratic prefet.
The cops were robots, impassive, impervious, useless to try to explain to them that it is
the State and RTE which are scrapings. The gendarmes who evacuated people from the roofs
even presented themselves as " rescuers " ! Anything ... We still do not know how to say
more, but the fight's slider was moved by the cops this time around.
A new phase of the fight
Side Amassada (" assembly " in Occitan), it is acquired that the destruction of the
buildings of the occupation is " only " the end of an act of the fight. An assembly is
not limited to one or more buildings, contrary to what Berna could believe that confuses
destroy the Amassada and destroy the site.
From now on the collective calls to continue with him the fight to prevent the
construction of this transformer of greenwashing. The evacuation was promised since last
year, and this year won was rich of constructions, links and different struggles. The
state is more illegitimate than ever on this project and globally on the other struggles
of South Aveyron.
In order: the weekend of 1 st , 2 and 3 November with demonstration of reoccupation
Saturday, November 2nd.
The Libertarian Communist Union affirms its total support for the expelled from the
Amassada and the inhabitants in struggle !
Solidarity with the Amassada ! No res our arresta, nothing will stop us !

Conversation on the legal situation of the squat with Antoni Wiesztort an activist of the
Warsaw and Poznan tenants' movement, a member of the Rozbrat Collective. ---- Stanislaw
Krastowicz: When defending Rozbrat, the argument of unclear transactions with this plot or
wild reprivatization is often raised. After the regime change, the city authorities were
not to defend the social ownership of the area and to favor taking it into private hands.
In July this year, the current Poznan authorities referred to such a narrative. They
reject criticism of Rozbrat and claim that talking about wild reprivatization of this part
of Poznan is "completely unjustified". What do you think the authorities' attitude is
based on?
Antek Wiesztort:This position is rather a continuation of repression, which has been going
on for the third decade. Materials that the city also revealed to us in the summer,
documents from a query in the state archives, opinions of an expert and lawyers
experienced in the matter of reprivatization in Warsaw - all this leads to two
conclusions. First, each subsequent cycle of privatization of this plot on Pulaski took
place in dubious legal circumstances. Secondly, after the regime change, the authorities
participated in this process in a way that should be called encouraging privatization. The
Poznan City Hall in the Grobelny era and earlier did not care about this public property
now valued at about 5 million zlotys. The current authorities, however, do not condemn
those times to this day, the main ambiguities are still silent, and in their place
arguments for the right to privatization are duplicated."Sklot Rozbrat: facts and myths"
is simply too many myths and too few facts.
What myths about Rozbrat have been repeated by the authorities in this position?
The opinion that there was no wild reprivatization here comes down to the argument of one
important judgment of the Poznan District Court in 2002. The city was to apply for public
property at the expense of private ownership of the plot on behalf of the Treasury.
In 2002 the court approved the privatization of the area. It was, however, a bizarre
verdict, brushing against graphomania. Nevertheless, the city was very poorly prepared for
the trial, it simply did not care about winning, nor did it appeal the sentence. Today,
unfortunately, the new team repeats without much reflection the thesis of the court, which
simply did not stick together.
The judge challenged the post-nationalization of the area along with the workplace, which
the Nazis created on it during the occupation. She provided two important arguments in
favor of the privatization of this plot - both incompatible with the factual and legal
status. First, she stated that there could be no nationalization of the workplace in this
area, because there was no workplace, only a meadow. The court itself ignored the archival
materials to which it had access, and this was clear evidence of the existence of
buildings, machinery, in other words the workplace. Against the backdrop of war damage, in
the face of Nazi plunder of industry, such a not fully stolen factory was worth its weight
in gold. It gave a chance for any production and rebuilding of the city, as well as
earnings and hunger for dozens of Poznan families. Formally, the state took over this
plant in 1946,
So what. A court in 2002 stated that there was a meadow there, not a plant. The city
authorities, however, took it seriously, failed to distinguish the meadow from the
buildings and did not appeal.
Secondly, the court stated that the private pre-war owner of the Pulaski meadow had
restored its ownership right after the war, before it was socialized with the workplace.
Even if the state were to take over the plant (although the judge denied that the plant
was here), it could not take over the private land on which the plant stood.
Interestingly, this kind of argument of a Poznan court in 2002 contradicted the ruling of
the Supreme Courtissued in an identical case the year before, that is in 2001, the Supreme
Court unequivocally stated that the acquisition of state-owned enterprises based on the
same act as the acquisition of the Pulaski plant, included the land on which these
enterprises stood. "Whatever their property was." Without the ground underfoot, the plant
just couldn't function properly. Private owners were only entitled to damages upon request.
Before the felic sentence in 2002, the city authorities did not mention this favorable
judgment of the Supreme Court. They also did not submit an appeal in which they could rely
on this ruling to save the multi-million assets.
By the way, the district court, as if to prove that he did not attach any importance to
the case, committed obvious sell-offs, to which the city also did not react. He stated,
for example, that the pre-war private owner, Szczepan Jelenski, restored the possession of
the plot on Pulaski after the court decision of 1945, but based on the law of 1946, i.e.
one that did not yet exist, was established a year after that decision. If it does not
sound credible that the post-war court knew how to travel in time, it was another
inaccuracy that should lead the Poznan authorities to look into this case more closely,
and finally - to appeal against the privatization order. However, they did not.
We can only guess why the Poznan district court issued such a judgment and the city
defended the public interest so weakly. In Poland, at that time something that officials
called " tape reprivatization " developed in Warsaw: the more privatization the better,
skip the inconvenient facts, set a standard. Ideological, cross-party agreement to a
neoliberal course in the country led to piecework plunder. The judgment harmful here to
the city was made during the largest scams on the real estate market, which in Poznan
revealed, among others in the form of so-called testament scandal .
For the bourgeois, liberal public opinion, the decisions of the PRL authorities and courts
are still illegal, or at least suspicious.
In part, this is not surprising. Taking over public areas or workplaces from the People's
Republic of Poland is simply a liberal version of the same "fight against communism,"
which the right wing and the nationalists have been eagerly pushing for three decades
after the political change. In the name of such anti-communism, for thirty years, large
parts of large cities and entire towns, from Gdynia through Warsaw to Szczawnica, have
been taken over. Everywhere this involves the liquidation of workplaces, the withdrawal of
social access to services or mass evictions. It is only as a result of struggles of
tenants or other social groups that it turns out that many acquisitions are legally
questionable or even criminal. Liberals and conservatives fight eagerly and knightly for
"rape of private property" in the previous system. At the same time, they are not able to
stop the loss of social control over urban areas and their mass looting in the current
system, for which they are responsible.
In addition to the fact that the fight against communism is one of the most profitable
interests in the country to this day, the ardent criticism of "tarnishing private
property" after the war also results from a misunderstanding of the realities of those
times. At the beginning of the war, the largest Polish cities were mainly private
property. Poznan was 70 percent private, also in the pre-war capital city 95% land was in
private hands of a relatively small group of residents. It should be remembered that after
the war, in a ruined country, pre-war private property often paralyzed efforts to rebuild
cities from ruins.
Today, beneficiaries of reprivatization often emphasize that their activity is historical
justice, because they cancel the theft of someone else's property. After a devastating
war, securing private property for a small part of society was the least of the problems.
It was more important that the country should not starve. The idea was that plants could
start production, that people could work, where they could live, etc. In the case of the
plot on Pulaski, it was primarily about securing a functioning, former German enterprise,
so that it could produce furniture - beds for plundered hospitals, benches for damaged
schools, etc. Before the power secured it, ordinary people did it, just like ordinary
people took the ruins of the capital before the government decided to rebuild it.
Besides, today the authorities also use expropriations, not for cheap municipal housing
but for example for the construction of highways or open-cast mines. The bourgeois public
opinion does not threaten the governments of the Third Polish Republic.
You told me earlier that the topic of political involvement of the pre-war owner of this
plot, Szczepan Jelenski, is also interesting?
Yes. Reprivatization is always connected with history. In the struggle around Pulaski's
property, the current authorities clearly have a conscience - how a free democratic state
can harm the heirs of a "Polish engineer injured by the commune and the Nazis." Is this,
however, to justify today's activities of the Darex company, extorting loans by it, or
plans for the elite development of part of Wedge of Greenery in Pulaskiego area?
However, if we are to focus on the figure of Szczepan Jelenski, let's talk about all its
sides. For example, Jelenski wrote the most infamous pages of Polish anti-Semitism. He
was, among others editor-in-chief of the pioneering Jewish eater magazine in Poland,
coming out under the name "Role". The weekly, producing, for example, maps of Polish
cities with an indicator of their "consumption" began to be published by his father, Jan
Jelenski. Several scientific studies have been written on the subject of "Role", including
by Malgorzata Domagalska "Poisoned grain". It is quite symbolic that today opponents of
fascism in Poznan operate in the former area of the last editor of the legendary Rola.
Jelenski might consider the old fragments of the weekly a prophecy, for example "from
under the earth anarchism is poured into the audience at once and under the slogan of"
freedom "spreads terrible terror."
Let's get back to the right topic - what happened next?
There was already a Polish factory here, which was founded on the basis of the
aforementioned German company. However, the legal situation in the land and mortgage
register was not ordered. After nationalization, the book still had Jelenski's name on it,
and his daughter entered her in the 1980s. After changing the system in 1989, the actions
of public institutions to defend the social character of the ownership of the plot at
Pulaski are - to put it mildly - very slow. The inefficient effort only causes that
Jelenski's daughter leaves the area to Darex Sp. z oo does this , incidentally, after the
a court decision is made arguing that the real owner of Pulaski is the State Treasury, but
the state must finally enter the land and mortgage register. The authorities are extremely
slow again, it takes them over two years to submit such an application. Darex notices the
authorities in their land and mortgage register, inattention to the authorities. However,
the court also enters a reservation in the book that the issue of ownership is
inconsistent with the actual legal status.
Meanwhile, Darex immediately after obtaining an entry in the book takes the pledge of
plots for Pulaski loan for an amount five times greater than the value of its purchase in
the same year. After that, hearing about the company in Poznan has been lost for over 20
years. The company is practically not interested in land, does not pay property tax, does
not conduct any activity.
What about the company that operated here?
In fact, the largest initiative in the fight against the privatization of this area was
shown by representatives of the workplace operating in this area until the early nineties.
The plant was liquidated in 1994 and formally there was no one else to take care of the
area, court cases, etc. In such circumstances, the aforementioned district court began to
act strangely.
Abandoned buildings, which were systematically "cleaned" by scrap metal, were taken by
Rozbrat. In the second half of the 1990s and at the beginning of the 2000s, former
employees of this plant came to Rozbrat - out of sentiment. It was a furniture center
associated with the furniture factory in Swarzedz, which was also collapsed.
If Darex took over this land from his daughter Jelenski, who was entered in the land and
mortgage register, did he not act in the so-called good faith It would mean that his hands
were clean.
No. First of all, when the state-owned plant operating here was experiencing financial
difficulties, Darex rented part of the area and warehouses from him. He paid him for it.
He was therefore aware that the area was owned by an entity other than Jelenski's
daughter. Secondly, as if buying this land, Darex paid very little money, as if he were
buying an entry in the land and mortgage register rather than real land. The entry was
enough to take a loan that he did not repay. We have an expert opinion on this
transaction. There can be no question, therefore, that Darex was not aware of the legal
situation and bought the land "in good faith." It was not "good faith."
Does this mean that it was only a scam, a phishing loan ...?
Everything points to it. The situation began to develop unexpectedly today: the debt is
growing, but the market value of the land began to grow much faster. Especially since it
becomes clear that Poland is joining the European Union. Real estate prices have exploded
after 2004. Now the value of this land is PLN 4-6 million - depending on estimates. In any
case, it is many times more than the debt itself with huge interest.
I do not know whether Darex himself became active from that moment or whether - in my
opinion more likely - Poznan developers found him. The "game" began to take over this land
from Darex for investment. We have in our internal studies a diagram of relationships
between several representatives of several developers and people whose names appear, among
others in the courts on the occasion of the Darexu case. These are well-known companies on
the Poznan market and, inevitably, also associated with the political power in this city.
Rozbrat stands on the road to taking over this land. For five years, we have been dealing
with our prescription - since the city cannot secure the social character of the ownership
of this land, we are trying to do it. As it has been repeated several times on various
occasions, it would be absurd if it turned out that the company that had extorted the
plot, took a loan against its pledge and never repaid it, was not interested in the area
for over 25 years, did not fulfill its obligations , was to have greater rights to it than
our community, which at the same time works for the city and defends the interests of its
inhabitants.

Anarchists marched in Mexico City on Wednesday to celebrate the 51st anniversary of the
Tlatelolco Massacre in 1968, in which hundreds of students were killed by military and
police officers in Plaza de las Tres Culturas. ---- After anarchists attacked AMLO's
palace[Andrés Manuel López Obrador, president of Mexico]during a recent protest by the 43
missing students from Ayoutzinapa, the state instituted a human barrier with 12,000
white-clad people to protect capitalist and state targets from anarchists and
revolutionaries during the celebration of October 2. ---- "They are so afraid of us that
they block us," reads red graffiti on one of the metal barriers mounted to protect the
walls of the Bank of Mexico headquarters.
The biggest incident occurred during the march that began at Praça das Três Culturas, on 5
de Maio street, where large groups arrived in Zócalo. At that time, there was no longer a
"Peace Belt", but only metal structures to protect the walls and windows.
Right on the corner of May 5 with Central Axis Lazaro Cardenas, police officers ran into
an anarchist group near the end of the march.
It was then that the block, in black clothes and covered faces, threw rocks at police and
then fireworks, an action that was repeated on every corner of May 5th Street.
Anarchists shouted "Death to the state, long live anarchy!" And "Guard dogs of law and
order, hired killers, abuse of power!"
Among the graffiti made by the anarchists during the march was a message in support of the
anarchist political prisoner Miguel Peralta, who is currently on hunger strike.
Thousands of students from Oaxaca, Coahuila, Zacatecas, Chiapas, Tabasco, Michoacán,
Sinaloa, Baja California Sur and Yucatán also participated in similar demonstrations to
demand justice for victims on October 2.

Brno - Turkish soldiers are about to cross the border with Syria and launch an invasion of
the autonomous region of Rojava. For several days, the locals have been coming straight to
the border, standing like living shields to protect what they have managed to create and
fight against the Islamic State. Since yesterday evening, activists throughout Europe have
been protesting against the invasion of Turkey and against the hypocrisy of Western
countries, which initially supported the Kurds in the fight against ISIS, but now withdrew
cowardly and want to leave them to Turkish fascism. Turkey is trying to destroy these
efforts and occupy the area with the army with the help of recruited jihadists of the
so-called Islamic State.
That is why, on Wednesday, October 9, opponents and opponents of the Turkish invasion
gathered in Brno in front of a Turkish consulate with a banner and drums to highlight
their indignation and support the Kurds in their revolutionary struggle for direct
democracy based on women's emancipation and equality, non-hierarchy and tolerance.
The Consulate is located opposite the Brno Exhibition Center, where the IDET Armor Fair,
whose partner was Turkey in 2017, is regularly held. Czech weapons thus help criminal
regimes to massively suppress human rights. We must immediately stop the supply of arms
and put an end to the support of the Turkish fascism of Erdogan by the Czech Republic.
Prime Minister A. Babiš supports Erdogan because he promised to take over assets from the
unfinished Adularya brown coal power plant project. Business is no more than human rights!
It is time to show what we think of this war.

The last two of our four members' conciliation hearings against Deliveroo took place
today. The result: fighting back against unfair working conditions pays off - whether in
the workplaces, the streets or in the courts. ---- Deliveroo had previously offered
workers a so-called "goodwill payment" in August after making the entire workforce
redundant with almost no notice. The hearings ended in three settlements, where each of
the three workers received up to seven times the payment originally offered by the
company. However, the company has the right to withdraw these offers within two weeks.
---- The fourth rider rejected the settlement of over € 4,000, as this was far below what
he considers a reasonable severance payment, having faced multiple hardships arising from
his employment conditions. We'll continue to fight for his right to be recognised as a
fully employed worker and not a self-employed contractor. Next, he will have his first
court case to push for his employee status to be recognised by the court. If the case is
won, it could have a positive effect for other "self-employed" workers nationwide.
Outside the court, the FAU held a rally in solidarity with the riders. Here's the speech
from Akseli, an ex-Deliveroo-rider.
