As the battleship grey skies filter out the dying rays of a burnt empire, the eerie glow of an alpha-particle illuminated landscape emetSes. As the good ship Britannia Waste Dkposal and Warfare Inc. rocks at its beached moorings and in the hold a host of blind salamanders begin to slide around their unfamiliar surroundings, here is a pocket guide to the mysteriow new mutants who are thriving on the rump of the New bankruptcy... PART 1 : ST. FRANCIS OF ASSISI COMES HOME TO ROOST (Patron Saint of Thatcher and animal lovers.) Diverse thongh'Animal Rights' support is, we feel that the movement represents the most worrying development on the modern political scene. In an economy buoyant on a staggering credit bubble and industrially in the red for the first ti6e since the late 1500's, Britain may well be heading for social disaster; the riots. miners' strike and violence of the printers' strike have already paved the way towards a possible civil war equivalent to that in Northern Ireland. The mainland groups most prepared for such a scenario are undoubtedly the animal rights ones, they revel in para-military style operations and training, and have an efficient contact and safe-house network. The recent trial which sentenced their office-worker spokesman Ronnie Lee to 10 years imprisonment has elevated the ALF to the status of the 80's Angry Brigade,b:ut has apparently only strengthened the resolve of the gangs to continue. The most frightening aspect of the Animals Rights movement is its almost complete acceptance within alternative political circles, the absence of any dissent or critique of their views. Many feel that 'Animal Rlfits'is irrelevant and not worth discussing as a political factor. We contend that since the Ronnie Lee trial the ALF are now a valid terrorist group. It is no longer good enough to ignore the Monty Pythonesque photos of balaciava-clad guerrillas clutching kittens. Animal Rights activists have the Blue Peter image of eccentric cranks who care for animals, infact they are dangerous fanatics who represent perhaps the closest thing to popular armed fascism this country has ever seen. That may seem like an overstatement but apart from the fact that neo-n.Lzis, including the NF and BM have similar animal policies on vivisection and hunting (as did the original nazis), they have nowhere near the organisation and popular acceptance that the ALF do. In the ALF it is possible to hate blindly and be socially acclaimed for doing so. The possible window into overt racism (on the Halal and Kosher meat preparation issue which animal rights groups have tried to prevent Islington Council from condoning) should not cloud the underlying irrelevance and insanity of ascribing rights to animals at all. 'Animal Rights' oiginated before the French Revolution when the aristocrats, amused at the new concept of human rights, announced that if creatures as lowly as peasants thought they were entitled. to rights then so should their equals, the livestock, and their betters, the Court pets! The same arrogance was to produce the revolution-causing taunt that peasants should eat cake. In the next century animal rights provided the ultimate Victorian value, espoused by the rising middle classes, which was to make us a nation of animal lovers. The degradation of mothers and infants in workhouses and factories was to prompt one foreigner to state Britain cared more for its pets than its children. So far, the only political party to include animal rights as a major tenet of its programme, and act upon it in law, has been the National Socialists of Germany in right-wing thought has flourished while the Left has gone completely on the defensive, increasingly bankrupt in theory. It was in this atmosphere of malaise that the anarchist movement grew in Britain, relying on distant xeroxed images of far off 60's and 70's to provide legitimacy under the umbrella of ideological sound.ness, an almost totally meaningless expression by now. As no one addressed themselves to the problems of the New Bankruptcy, the radical left drifted instead into a vacant nihilism to provide its slogans. caring more about sports wear style or clinging to tired images such as pirate radio. It is this vacant nihilism which is now beginning to harden into recognisable groups spurred on by Britain's decline. We hold as self-evident that (i) Animal Rights are the antithesis of Human Rights, that attacks on medical research and scientists have already caused human suffering because of destroyed work. (ii) That the Animal Rights movement is identical politically to the Abortion Clinic bombers in America. (The Extreme Christian Right.) (iii) The use of Situationist theory in some ALF literature is a sop equal to the Strasserite socialism of the neo-nazis. (Sit. theory being redundant.) (iv) That discrediting the animal rights movement, which exerts a strangle hold on all alternative politics, is a prerequisite to creating a new and positive rebellion. (v) That animal activists are bourgeois politics.thrown up by a radical bourgeois government. i.e. 'Ihey are the nearest thing to Thatcher Youth. (vi) That the Animal Liberation Front is a Nazi Front. 1933. The Left has suffered badly in the 80's, damaged by the Iranian Revolution, which proved that a popular rightwing uprising could occur (supposedly impossible) and discredited by the collapse of the 'Winter of Discontent', and worst of all the abandonment of Kampuchea by the Khmer Rouge, revealing that the New Left could Please discuss this issue. It is urgent thal the assumptions of the alternative political movement are challenged. genocide (also thought impossible), the Left entered the 80's with a lot to re-evaluate. By and large it failed, Thatcher and Reagan set the climate in which OUR BIGGEST HOAX USED TO BE THE LIVES WE WERE LIVING. equal the Old Right in atrocity. and -12- NOW IT IS THE CRITICISM OF THOSE LIVES.

t I TI^IICE UPON A TIME IN THE We're still aboard the radioactive hulk of the doomed passenger ferry 'GREAT BRITAIN', Thatcher's herald of free enterprise. In this episode we are going to browse through the early entries in the log to see if we can find out who steered us into this mess. Could it be that the group of building merchants who've been up at the bar the whole journey aren't passengers after all... but the crew!? ENGLAND . THE MINIATURE TH. EME-PARK OF REVOLUTION You are standing on a small, damP, rain-swept atlantic island, where the whole world comes for its bad ideas. The rich countries of the Earth are l,s ie n ,y o re rt 'e d rt n ry divided between democracy and communism, so let's look at Britain where in a roundabout way they got the idea for both. Parliamentary democracy; with rival parties vying to form a govt. has seen its steadiest development as a system in Britain. Through the centuries civil wars with both monarchy and mob have established Parliament as the centre of the political structure. Post-revolutionary nations, such as America and France, were able to streamline this model for their own use, in Britain the continuing presence of royalty, the Lords, the City, a lack of written constitution and an antiquated electoral system all helped to keep our 'democracy' essentially medieval. So, what of Communism and the one-party state? Here too, the primitive model came from Britain (even supplied with its own fore-runner of the hammer and sickle) and here too that model is still functioning, though its members do not often identify with their post-revolutionary cousins in the Soviet bloc... In Russia a Communist Party official holds considerablg power, he or she must work hard and take responsibility for the administration of their district. They must take the blame for any problems. However these pillars of the communlty have a less worthy side to their nature, a party official expects and gets lavish perks that ordinary russians are denied, can get luxuries in abundance and can ensure that his or her friends benefit from business and govt. contracts... Does that latter part sound familiar? Yes, the equivalent to the 'Communist Party' in Britain is the Freemasons. The Masons are constantly referred to as a secret society, which they aren't. Much is made of the 'magic' rituals which accompany their meetings, certainly they do perform strange ceremonies, but'then the State opening of Parliament (and most of the running of this country) looks just as ludicrously archaic and bizarre to any modern democrat. The aura of mystery and occultism which opponents attach to the Masons is positive- ly thrived on by them. But mystic philosophy was common amongst the trade guilds of the middle ages from rihich Freemasonry evolved, it was the everyday outlook of working people as socialism was to be centuries later, what the masons call their 'religious tradition' is simply a distorted version of what was once the education, safety and standards policy of an early trade union. Both the masons and the Communist Parties began as workers' organisations to fight for and protect their members, and to also change society. Both were later to become cliques for careerists and self-promotion,and both have ended up looking like fake religions. rf al rd ,d IS ic rIC IC t. tS rn :o 1S is St rt al E )F - 13- 'IITSTE THE HERALD OF FREE.MASONRY The main similarity between Soviet Party officials and our own Freemasons is their corruption. A hallmark of modern states is some degree of open govt. In Russia the officials are the supposed representatives of the people, their corruption therefore is not wholly unnnoticed by the citizens. In Britain, the land of official secrets, where most of our rudimentary democracy takes place behind closed doors, the Masons maintain a favourably lower profile. When attacked they are quick to point to the charity work they do. But then at least the Communist Party officials have to do a lot of genuine work for their community and carry the can when it fails. The Masons seem to have been able to shirk the responsibilities of their power, perhaps we should be demanding they do more work instead of less. If Party bosses were as secretive, lazy and wholly unaccountable as our Freemasons, there would be considerable trouble. Several CP officials had to be publically sacked in the wake of the Chernobyl disaster, has a single mason been denounced for Sellafield? The real question about the Masons is not how sinisterly they roll up one trouser-leg and pray to Nubis, but how effectively their power cuts across the Parliamentary parties and ministries. The Italian experience with P2 would suggest quite a lot. If this is so then we're not only living under the archetypal 'Mother of Parliaments' but under the world's oldest one-party system as well. If you want to know how to burn down the planet, here's where it's got to start!

SLA\'ES TO A PHAROAH I'M MAD AS HELL AND I'M GONNA TAKE IT ANYMORE! ,--zl':t'xD OF ALL THE WONDERS OF THE WORLD ONLY THE PYRAMIDS ARE STILL STANDING. Pyramids are the symbols and structures of oppression, built by slaves and addicts for the pharoahs above them. Capitalism is an economic pyramid as enshrined by the dollare bill. *VOTE FLIGHTLINE - CAPITALISM FOR ALL* I This leaflet is about 'Flightline'. Flightline is the name of a major money-chain, a pyramid of investors, who each gamble a large sum of cash in order to move up the chain to the top, at which point they can, if lucky, receive 8 times their original slake. Flightline was initiated early last year by the new stockbrokers of the post-'Blg Bang' stockmarket, eager to continue their gambling in their spare time. (lt was featured as a story on 'Newsnight' at that time.) As with every pyramid, a fresh bottom-line of (in this case) 8 new investors has to be constantly recruited, eventually new recruits cannot be found and the pyramid collapses. This is the gamble, that you will not be among the last investors. From its City Penthouse origins it hasn't taken long for Flightline to work its way down through London society to have now reached affluent squatters! ANARCHY'S BECOME ANOTHER WORD FOR HAVE YOU GOT A SPARE flOO. ST()P THE What is so ominous abofi Flightline is that a pyramid has ceased to be an exclusive practice of the stockmarket floor and has now become a public investment similar to a shares flotation, Thatcher's Capitalism for the people. To gamble on the Flightline you must invest 1100, the figure has not been reduced to cater for lower earners as the pyramid descends, this would not be possible in a system of greed. Flighrline has an even more sinister purpose, it is a dragnet, designed to recruit as many people as possible to the mentality and practice of Thatcherism, wherever the pyramid collapses is where the true poverty or honesty begins, where squatters are not merely aspiring yuppies living rent-free, the dividing line, quite literally, between the haves and the have nots. If you have 1100 to gamble with you have no need to be squatting. The de-regulation of the City means that the spirit of crime, fraud and speculation will no longer be confined to the Stock Exchange and the property marketeers, it is now a real choice affecting us all, those who can afford to invest in Flightline will next invest in the sell-off of Electricity (who will then cut off services to any squatters), Council Housing to Associations (who will then evict with the firebomb, as in New York and Paris) and in the whole reintroduction of naked, aggressive laissez-faire Capitalism, which our previous generations fought bitter battles to control. The Flightliners have joined our oppressors, the inevitable crash of the Flightline will be rapidly repeated by a 1 lI you wirh to eltcr or numbcn in e rriel rchtion, you lhcr or rcmovc thc krttonr numbcr.

Stop the Flightliners. JUST SAY NO! When this particular manifestation of Thatcher's de-regulation of the City is over, what will be next? Squatters buying up the council houses the tories intend to sell-off and owning shares in the Electricity Board so that those who have the money (via their investments) will escape the shit that will descend on those of us left behind, who refuse to be part of it. Flightliners claim they're ripping off yuppies, when it's actually us they're ripping off. Flightline is the first of many means-tests to find out who is prepared to climb the ladder of capitalism and who will refuse to be press-ganged into Thatcher's myrmidons of Spivdom. THIS is how you vote for the Conservatives, with your cash. All you need is f100. THESE PEOPLE HAVE BECOME OUR OPPRESSORS - ARE YOU PRE.

Herc, thc urban gucrrilla can only bc what hc is thercl tho only revolutionary method of intervention rvailoblc to wbat are on thc wholc weat revolutionary torccs. Thc urban guerrilla starts by recognizing that therc will bc no Prussian ordcr of march of the tind io which so meny so+ellcd rcvolutionaries would likc lo lcad thc pople into battlc. Hc rtrrby rccognizing that by the timc thc momcnt for armcd struggle arrives, it will already be too larc lo start prcparing for it; that in r country whose potcntial for violcnce is as grcat and whosc rcvolutionary traditions arc as broken aod fceble as the Federal Rcpublic's, lhcrc What is important is that onc should havc had sorne political cxpcricnce in tegality before deciding to takc up arrred strut$e, Thotc who have joined thc rcvolutionary left just to bc trcndy had bctter bc carcful not to involve themselves in somcthing from which tbcre is no going back.

That wasn't eough to arrest her for the police eventually let her go - but her picture on Wanted posters throughout West Germany should have been.
