A very anarchist Melbourne May Day

May Day - an international day of workers protests and celebration - came to Melbourne today in a small but anarchic way. May Day in Australia is not what it once was but is still carried forward by elements of the trade union movement and the broad left including anarchists.

Zombie’s March on on May Day – subversive or braindead?

On May Day in Melbourne – the refugee rally was dwarfed by another gathering of largely young people – about one thousand people took part in the Zombie Shuffle. Is this a subversive cultural statement about the zombification of our corporate, consumerist society? Or is it actually a manifestation of a braindead culture obsessed with meaningless spectacle? What does it say for the left that this “rally of the undead” was much bigger than the refugee rally happening at Trades Hall literally at the same time?
