Place de Nation Statue Liberty Egalite Fraternite

Paris poster on way to Climate games award ceremony......rough translation
The state of Emergency is a Police state
we don't even have the right to Piss.....

The state of emergency outlawed protests by more than 2 people with a political message, thus attempting to clamp down on all legitimate climate protest......many tens of thousands defied the ban during the Paris Climate Summit...vive la resistance,to the corporate climate criminals....

The Paris Squatter crews and international kitchen crews up on stage to recieve an award at the Climate games ward ceremony.
Fucking outstanding efforts from the squatters and the food sharers for a better future.
There were so many squats and legal convergence spaces in Paris.Incredible spaces,run by amazing people,needs a separate article in itself.So much creative use of space from La Jardin D'Alice arts space, Le petit mason cultural space, L'orcque art space,La Generalle massive old cinema, The ZAC Zone action Climat ,The Cinaxe and so many more ,space to meet ,greet,create,celebrate,plan the resistance and projects for a better future.The dream of Paris is alive in building the movement across the world.
So many good connections....
Massive big up to the food kitchens from several countries, who provided donations food to the masses of skint activists.Big up all the people who cooked,chopped or shared tea....an army marches on its stomach.....
A symbol that arose from the November attacks... the first squat we stayed at was just around the corner from a restaurant that was attacked....
Great bit of french art in the squat with george bush mass murderer  head on a statue
Very cool exhibition by American and Indigenous activists from the many campaigns of the americas and Turtle Island

Anti Keystone XL pipeline resistance...


Anti Fracking poster,we heard an impassioned appeal from the Indigenous resistance at the D12 Red lines action, when they said they were losing 1 person a week due to Fracking and eco disasters...

Feel the spirit of resistance 500 years and more

Great practical poster on basics of direct action, we need more of these...

Car Culture Dead End.......

Paris the Rebel Alliance grows,a web of groups from across the planet links up for action , keep networking, vive la resistance the fossil fuel empire is crumbling....arms into renewables....

Defend Protect Renew...

Rough translation ... who profits from the crime ....change the system not the Climate

We have the Soulutions keep networking....

The french Acme Tat warehouse squat,thanks for the hospitality...

Uk and french squatters Unite....

Banging squat Rave French Tek stylee.....

Rave on, the french underground know how to fill a warehouse...

Banging techno , gwan the youth club ,was pretty tired after the, D12 Red Lines action and massive jumping party at La Generalle , but the London old school raver still managed a few hours dancing wiv the french ravers squat youth club.proper old school style banging techno rave,avin it...

Fuckin awesome party at La Generalle convergence space in Paris.Brass band went off, in a room full of adrenalin and alcohol ,the whole crowd was bouncing to Bella Ciao and other jumping tunes.Crowd surfing and  a heady mix of resistance,party and protest.
Yipee we're still alive and didn't get battered or CS gassed by the french Police to much.....Rawcus party videos up soon.These points in life u know u really alive,
"we are un stoppable another world is Possible" Reclaim the Future.....Reclaim the Power



Yes we Can Can action at the Moulin Rouge....

TTIP is Legally binding to make governments subservient to corporate interests and law suits, yet still after 21 years of negotiating the climate summit Paris COP 21,once again did not create that much legally binding climate conditions for the corporations or their government collaborators.....

Under the Eiffel Tower,another protest, in fact the local french team explained that protests near the arc de Triomphe or Eiffel Tower  are never allowed,Reclaim the power with  Red Lines .... protests happened despite the state of emergency and french state repression of any form of political or environment protest.
This affinity group seemed fully prepared for climate change or tear gassing by French Riot police....

The EiffelTower,what a feat of engineering.....

State of Climate Emergency.....
Phoenix on Tour Paris ......


The view towards true Eiffel Tower with a mass movement on the way was incredible feeling, accompanied bby samba bands and brass bands,feel the momentum, this movement is unstoppable another world is possible.......

The Planet people ......
