Eviction - Press Release: 9/1/12 from Occupy Lancaster!

@LancasterOccupy | 09-01-2012 19:21 | Occupy Everywhere | Free Spaces | Policing | Repression | Sheffield

There are over 1 million empty properties in the UK, 350,000 of these have been vacant for over a year. Money is being spent on keeping these places empty with no benefit to communities and with negative devaluation of properties in the surrounding area.

UG#572 - Monopoly and Money (Contradictions of Capitalism)

Robin Upton | 21-10-2011 14:42 | Globalisation | Policing | Social Struggles | Sheffield | World

Audio
If competition is such a good thing, why is it not tolerated in areas of government or law? Or in the money system, which functions as a highly profitable private business?

UG#570 - The Fundamental Wrongness of 'Rights' (Law as Fiction)

Robin Upton | 15-10-2011 09:36 | Analysis | Policing | Social Struggles | Sheffield | World

Audio
The show this week looks at the ideas of 'law' and 'rights'. As George Carlin says, if the government can take it away, it isn't a right, it's a privilege. A disturbing but important thought in these days in which governments worldwide are becoming more open about their subservience to expediency. We hear from a range of speakers, and our material ranges from the comic to the deadly serious.

Daylight Robbery, Meet Nighttime Robbery

Naomi Klein | 18-08-2011 06:35 | August Riots | Policing | Social Struggles | Sheffield

I keep hearing comparisons between the London riots and riots in other European cities—window smashing in Athens or car bonfires in Paris. And there are parallels, to be sure: a spark set by police violence, a generation that feels forgotten.

The stench of a police state

Julie Hyland | 18-08-2011 06:20 | August Riots | Analysis | Policing | Repression | Sheffield

The events of the last 12 days are a warning to the working class in Britain and internationally. The state repression and right-wing hysteria unleashed in response to youth rioting in London and other cities reveal the preparations of the ruling class for police-state forms of rule.
