Have you not thought that maybe the stewrds were protecting the march from the cops??
Just like turkey's voting for Christmas.
Let's regulate the revolution comrades!!!
A open vote was taken on before the march started and all voted in favour of stewards. No votes against... so there...begrudgers!
surely the SWP or one of their front organisations or whoever else was involved in organising the AEIP protest are entitled to decide how that protest is conducted and steward it as they wish?
it seems like there are a number of "protestors" who think they are entitled to use other people's protests as a cover for attacking cops. given your criticistm of the stewards for protecting cops it seems like you might be one of these hijackers.
if attacking cops is what you want to do arthur, organise your own protest and advertise it for what it will be. don't use the rest of us as human shields.
AEIP undertook to hold a peaceful protest and are entitled to steward it to make that happen.
(i'm not in swp or any similar organisations, my ideas would be more anarchist.)
Swimmers protect the coppers- fuck 'em! 'Nuff said. Haven't seen anything this sad since the 'intervention' by SWP saps against protestors in defence of the PNSI up north during the last Bush visit- like the largely working class nationalist demonstrators who came out against Bush on that occasion needed lessons in how to deal with the unreconstucted RUC from outside SWP elements. Sad indeed.

on my way to the grass roots protest at stevens green i ran into the the Another Europe is possible protest it took up a large part of the quay i was impressed at the turn out as they took up half the quay ,i thought that there wasnt enough activist in ireland to go round but as i went to the Grass roots gig and there was the usual contender punks, anarkos , press and police it looked like a punks picnic and the then the flags went up then people appeared from left front and centre i never saw so many head s up for it !!!!!!!!
