Solidarity with the USYD strike from Copenhagen

Submitted by autonomousactions on Fri, 07/06/2013 - 11:11am

In the early hours of June 5 some anarchists redecorated the facade of the Australian embassy in Copenhagen with messages of solidarity with the ongoing strike at Sydney University. Students and workers at USYD have faced off against the pigs of the NSW police force on numerous occasions since April this year, in an ongoing campaign against neoliberal restructuring of their university.
We sprayed:

NO JUSTICE NO PEACE

CUT SPENCE STAB SCIPIONE

DROP ALL CHARGES AGAINST USYD STRIKERS

OCCUPY & RESIST!

Superannuation links with trade unions

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Fri, 07/06/2013 - 7:52am

Trade Unions will often manage a superannuation fund so as to keep the trade union afloat & pay their trade union administration fees, however many trade unions now call themselves a association, do a google search on australian associations & you will see that their is alot of australian associations, therefore it is fair to say that trade unions who once used ideologies of capitalism versus socialism & industrial worker theories now prefer to call themselves a australian association & manage a superannuation fund

The first industrial robot was actuallly built in the United States in the 1970's & since then we have seen the proliferation of industrial robots all round the world.

How would the Americans handle the Christmas Island detention centre?

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Thu, 06/06/2013 - 7:30am

The Americans would grant boat people assylum & transport these boat people from Christmass Island into the Australian mainland where these boat people would be enlisted as farm labourers, after a number of years as working as farm labourers the boat people would then be sent to a foreign country. A similar state of affairs occurs when south americans illegally cross the mexican border into the united states looking for assylum.

Why can't Sydney be a city of trains & trams. Community Cars can be located at certain train & tram stops to allow people to make short trips, public transport is alot more enviromentally friendly than cars.
