From one of the bellies of financial capitalism reaches us David Graeber's analysis of the current crisis, a look at the recent past of our movement and the lack of organised resistance to capitalism.
We seem to have reached an impasse. Capitalism as we know it appears to be coming apart. But as financial institutions stagger and crumble, there is no obvious alternative. Organized resistance appears scattered and incoherent; the global justice movement a shadow of its former self. There is good reason to believe that, in a generation or so, capitalism will no longer exist: for the simple reason that it’s impossible to maintain an engine of perpetual growth forever on a finite planet. Faced with the prospect, the knee-jerk reaction -- even of “progressives” -- is, often, fear, to cling to capitalism because they simply can’t imagine an alternative that wouldn’t be even worse.

A couple of score demonstrators mobilised by the Trade Justice Movement and some of its affiliated member organisations stage an Alarm-Clock Themed Noize Demo [1] outside the Guidhall in the City of London. Inside, buried up to his eyeballs with his snout in the Lord Mayor's Banquet trough, our class enemy Gordon Brown was addressing his paymasters in the British Capitalist class on how to prolong the death agonies of their decadent, decomposing and despicable economic system.

There has been controversy recently on the global imc-communication and imc-tech lists over the issue of a $200,000 grant application sent to the Knight Foundation by IMC Boston to do Drupal development work for Indymedia sites.
The grant application was blocked by IMC Rosario in Argentina. As a working technical volunteer who has been building a new Indymedia website for the past year or so, I think this whole debate has raised some interesting issues related to code, corporate monopolies, and the dilemmas faced by a humble developer who's trying to help start a revolution.

This year Stonewall (the once militant gay rights organisation) found itself to be the target of a very angry demo at its annual awards ceremony. Many in gay politics have viewed Stonewall as a traitor to its radical roots for some time. But the trans gender comunitiy in particular were infuriated when Guardian columnist Julie Bindle was nominated for journo of the year award.
It seems that Ms Bindle has been punting out the idea that trans gendered people can be 'cured' by therapy. So a number of concerned individuals and their supporters showed up at the awards to have their voice heard on the issue.

As part of a 2006 stock transfer, Swan Housing took control of The Exmouth Estate from LBTH, promising improved services to everyone.
Shortly after residents began to witness the emergence of a two tier class system on The Exmouth Estate. Residents who blindly approved of development decisions by Swan benefited from well maintained living conditions.
However things were much tougher for those residents who questioned Swan's decisions, as decay due to lack of maintenance set in.

A Spectre was haunting Canary Wharf, I tell ye – the Spectre of Halloween! Or was it Communism?
When the cause of all humanity's woes enters its death throes, the time's arrived for a solemn funerary ceremony, followed by a joyful participatory wake. Several hundred souls seemed to agree, and converged on the West Plaza of Canary Wharf, in the fibrillating heart of London's Financial District, to hold a Halloween Street Party celebrating the demise of the Tyranny of Capital.

No Police, going to places I have never seen the mass go to before, the look of
joy from people looking down from their balcony's and the halloweeners we
passed on foot, the fancy dress and a really good happy feeling in general.
Big thanks to the Paramedic who led us back and gave directions from the
cemetry, Highgate?.
And the corking was spot on, well done guys.
