Let’s not miss a ‘subtle’ point; the right to protest is fundamental to a democratic society, let that right act as a barometer in any society that purports to uphold democratic values. read full story / add a comment

"Were you ever out in the great alone when the moon shone awful clear
And the icy mountains hemmed you in with a silence you `most could hear
With only the cry of the timber wolf and you camped out there in the cold

Every fortnight the Jack White branch of the WSM discuss a topic of interest to anarchists.

This Tuesday we will be looking at the idea of a Moneyless Economy. Anarchists want a non-market socialist economy, with free access to goods and services. Is this just a nice but impossible idea? Is an efficient economy possible without money, trade or barter?

These are informal meetings, and are open to anyone with an interest in anarchist politics .

It will begin at nine pm and at ten we will continue the discussion in a local pub.
