Fair enough, the blog is a good idea, but as long as opposition to the status-quo is limited to things like grafitti and egging buildings it will represent no real threat. We need to move on from protest, the left I mean, to rallying around an alternative platform for taking power, which everyone can work towards, using the power of strikes and other forms of civil disobedience that can actually hit the ruling class where it hurts. Sometimes when I see the Guards beating the shit out of protesters or think of the wannabe Banksys out there spraying their little protest in the dead of night when there's no-one around, I think the fat cats must be happy enough to see people 'venting' their anger in this way rather than focusing it in any really dangerous way.

The blog can only cover what's happening on the streets. At the moment this seems to be blockading government cars, occupations (as we saw at the student demo) and small acts of graffiti and vandalism.

When the day hopefully comes that we see mass acts of civil disobedience (walkouts, strikes etc...) then the blog can cover and promote those events.
