The Fuck Parade Strikes Back! - Reclaim Camden, Reclaim the Beats Sat July 11th 7pm

perhaps you could elaborate for those of us who don't do facebook

CLASS WAR STATEMENT ON JUNE 20th ANTI-AUSTERITY MARCH

CW will not be marching on June 20th. Since October 1968 the Left has tried to neutralise anger by pointless A-B marches, celebrity speakers, trade union windbags ,aspiring Labour leaders, picnics and music!.
Why fucking music......we are angry we don't want fucking music or picnics or comedians or clowns or guardian columnists we want a fucking revolution.

For too long those who oppose such passivity have moaned from the margins. Not this time though........

CLASS WAR will be assembling at the bank of England but we'll be staying there - in the belly of the beast. As thousand of marchers collapse from torpor and ennui and boredom - and that's before they move off - CW will offer a clear alternative of radical action.

At last you can chose between same old A- B boredom or be part of the largest angry brigade ever. Tough call.

I can see what they're saying, but its a bit ironic to lay into people for having music, when you're also organising a 12v link up fuck parade...... Just seemed a bit weird to stick "music" on the end.

Anyway...... a protest picnic :facepalm: (although j day was pretty much a protest picnic wasn't it :D )

i think they're talking less about the playing of music as part of a demonstration and rather more as music as an acceptable mode of expressing anger and dissatisfaction: less about the music played at the fuck parade and rather more about going to see e.g. billy bragg.

four stages, a dozen sound systems, four or five marquees, annual cost of nearly £100k, no it wasn't a fucking picnic :mad:;)

I wasn't there, I'm only going on the description...

Sounds like a hell of a picnic though..... I hope there were cucumber sandwiches.
