Last night's violence in Epping is the desperate cry of people who have been ignored for decades, says David Shipley. Violence must be condemned. But if the state doesn?t change course, and fast, we will see many Eppings.

From vaccine passports in 2021 to 'Britcard' digital ID in 2025, it's becoming clear we need a Digital Bill of Rights to protect us from being brought under the technocratic grip of a surveillance state, says Alan Miller.

Why is the modern world so unremittingly ugly, wonders Joanna Gray. As yet another interchangeable block of beige bricks springs up in town, the contrast with the glories of the structures our ancestors built is damning.

29th September Action - Diary Marker

Day of action to defend Community and Voluntary Sector

Once again the Government are seeking to make communities pay for the mistakes of the so called “elite”. The Minister for Finance has stated that he intends to cuts the Community & Voluntary sector disproportionally with an estimated 5,000 jobs losses. For many projects this will simply be a cut too far.

To challenge these proposals the Communities Against Cuts campaign is planning a number of event and actions over the coming months. This will include a mass mobilisation on Wednesday 29th September: please make note of this date in your diary.

We are hoping to bring recreate the vibrancy, creativity and energy of last Septembers action.

The location and type of action will be finalised and circulated in the coming weeks.

On behalf of the,

Community Against Cuts Campaign Group

I dont suppose the clique members of these community schemes will attend , why indeed
should they as they have nothing to protest about .

The poor unfortunate plebs of the community will of course be there fighting a losing
battle as they always seem to be doing .

try asking the members of the cliques how many of their 'staff'' have toiled endessly
over stoves and ending up in the local boozers collecting money 'for worthy causes '
in order to elevate their standing in the community , selling tickets for prizes of which very
little cash actually ends up in the community whatsoever .
