Furthermore, as anarcho-syndicalists, we send our greetings and solidarity to all those who were injured, and to their families and everyone who came onto the streets over recent days to defend the public education system. We admire the courage of all those who, despite the repression, put aside their fears and demonstrated in order to defend a decent future for the sons and daughters of the working classes.

(fr) CNT-f: Le Front National : une escroquerie sociale !

21 February 2012 - 3:34am
Les crises économiques et sociales actuelles n'en finissent plus de précariser la population et d'exaspérer les travailleurs pour qui le FN peut parfois apparaître comme une solution. Pourtant en grattant un peu le vernis, on retrouve toujours les mêmes visées anti-sociales. Profitant de cette situation et de son statut de nouvelle présidente du Front National, Marine Le Pen tenterait presque de nous convaincre de son âme sociale et de mettre fin à la « diabolisation » dont se plaint régulièrement son parti. Pourtant, le FN garde les mêmes thèmes, qui, s'ils ont été toilettés, conservent toujours des valeurs qui ferait la fierté d'un Pétain. Quelques exemples pris au hasard attestent d'un véritable projet de l'extrême droite traditionnelle : ...

(en) Britain, Freedom* January 2012 - DESPERATE MEASURES TO SAVE THE EU

21 February 2012 - 1:09am
European political elites met in Brussels, Belgium on December 8th to draft measures to secure the failing Euro and its single market, where the financial crisis is getting worse. The result is a treaty for a new ‘fiscal compact’, which is a tightening of financial rules and regulations between all the 27 countries forming the European Union. -- This treaty is being pitched as one aimed at ending ‘structural deficit’, that is when the amount a country raises through its taxes is less than the amount it borrows. Thus, any country being found with a deficit of more than 3% of its total income will be subject to ‘automatic sanctions’ – sanctions effected without vote. The 3% clause is not new to the Eurozone; however, it has never been enforced before. ---- The Brussels treaty also includes the imposition of a Tobin tax on all financial transactions. ...

france24.com: In Athens, an anarchist tradition alive and well ---- Singled out for blame in the wake of riots that broke out in Athens on February 12, Greek anarchists are eager to show that they “are not mere hooligans”. France24.com takes an exclusive look at the movement on the ground. ---- Nikólaos, a 36-year-old Greek anarchist, is reluctant to talk to journalists. ---- “Let me make it clear: I don’t represent any movement,” he says, making direct eye contact. “What I’m going to tell you is just my personal opinion. I’m not a leader or a spokesperson.” ---- His goal in speaking to the press is to make people abroad understand that Greek anarchists “are not mere hooligans”. ---- Nikólaos is seated in the office of Radio-Bubble, a community radio station in the neighbourhood of Exarhia in Athens.

Significant social struggles (strikes, demonstrations, riots ...) took place this last week in Romania against austerity policies and corruption government. These struggles are the most important since the fall of Stalinist dictatorship and the return to bourgeois democracy and they resulted in the resignation of Prime Minister.
