p.s. - Just a personal note to Guy Taylor:
Mate, I never bothered to count, but there were at least five times when I heard Martin Shaw apply the term 'wankers' to Globalise Resistance, the SWP, and you in particular.
You were very good for not stepping on the real movement's toes in Evian, and it was probably good for your own sake too (ever been chased by 500 black bloc?) If you try to do it now, at home, on the back of a campaign of repression that you and your entire herd were not subjected to, we will be very, very disappointed.now GO AWAY.

To anyone based in England,

The unprovoked injuries caused to Martin Shaw are indeed an outrage.
If other people feel the same, we think we should organise a time to hand in statements like the one sent out to the Swiss embassy inviting
people along to show their disgust at what has happened. We understand activists will be doing this in Rome at 5pm on Friday. Would anyone
join us in calling a similar protest in London?

In solidarity,
