Looking Forward to the Global Spring
A massive thank you to everyone who made the Hay Hill camp a reality. On October 15 last year we had no idea how long it would stay - in the event, it became one of the longest continuous occupations in the world, and took the Occupy message to thousands of people.

“It is time now to look at this new elite who govern the world. Everyone can name three world-famous footballers. Everyone can name several world- famous film stars. Everyone can name some miserable politicians. Yet now, when four hundred people personally own almost half the world’s total wealth, only a small handful could name one of them.” Technique of the Coup de Banque. Shaykh...

What happened next...
As Occupy Wall Street grew and grew (and keeps on growing!) other towns and cities in the US and overseas started to hear about it via social media (mainstream media wasn’t covering it). More and more people wanted to get involved, to join in and help support this rapidly growing movement for equality. So more Occupy movements began to spring up across the United States, and in other...
