These lips, these hips, are clearly a threat to global capital.
According to Indymedia, four activists have been banned for life from the Parliament House of New South Wales for making out in the gallery.
On the 14th and 15th of November, the World Trade Organization met in Sydney, Australia. As usual, the WTO can’t meet anywhere in the free world without drawing throngs of protestors.
Heavy handed police reaction to these events is perennially justified by the dangers posed by the protesters. For example, in Sydney, some protesters planned “militant spin the bottle.” The New South Wales Police Minister, the Honorable Michael Costa, was furious about this mysterious and dangerous activity. He even lambasted local Green Party legislators for not joining him in publicly condemning the “spin the bottle” strategy.
Despite the Minister’s paranoia, the “spin the bottle” consisted of little more than you’d expect. Upset about the confiscation of their six foot chickenwire bottle, the defiant protesters vowed to kiss each other again in the face of “unaustralian” police opposition. That “action” is what brought about the permanent explusion from the Parliament House.
While claiming their latest spin the bottle activities as a sucess, the protesters have said some unkind things about Minister Costa. But, honestly, who wouldn’t want to make out with this guy?I hope things don’t get out of hand when the WTO meets next in Cancun, Mexico.
