South Africa strikes & marches against poverty. THE WORLD IGNORES THEM.

category international | worker & community struggles and protests | other press author Monday June 27, 2005 18:09author by ios Report this post to the editors

Today South African miners walked through cities in their thousands to call for an end to poverty and improved working conditions and health care and other sundry benefits and rights.

Though african, and reported in BBC, RTE etc., their action won't get squeezed into the telly reports this evening. Yesterday a few thousand assembled in Madrid to say "end poverty" europeans "on message" they got their publicity telly time.

Last week Glastonbury saw Mr Geldof say "end poverty" though it must be said, by supporting the Tony Blair & Gordon Brown geopolitical agenda.
The man has been twice sainted.

Meanwhile the British as part of their "remake the image of 3rd world poverty" are considering taking S. Africa off the G8 invite list, "coz the africans aren't hard enough on Zimbabwe"

For the record here are the reports on the South African workers strike.-
