Anonymous: New York Supreme Court Decision to Evict Occupy Wall Street. NY Press Club Calls For Investigation Into NYPD’s Treatment of Journalists During Zuccotti Park Raid - TVSpy. The New York Press Club Foundation is calling for an investigation into the reported police aggression against journalists covering the NYPD’s early morning raid of Zuccotti Park. “As police officers acted to remove Occupy Wall Street protesters from Zuccotti Park, several reporters protested that they were the victims of harassment and that their rights under the First Amendment were violated,” wrote Gabe Pressman, longtime WNBC reporter and president of the New York Press Club Foundation, in a letter to Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Police Commissioner Ray Kelly.

“The actions of some police officers were not consistent with the long-established relationship between the NYPD and the press,” Pressman added. Here’s the full letter… Dear Mr. Mayor and Police Commissioner Kelly: A few were arrested or detained. Les "indignés" de Londres bravent l'ultimatum de la City - Monde. LONDRES (Reuters) - Les "indignés" qui campent depuis un mois sur le parvis de la cathédrale Saint-Paul, au coeur de la City londonienne, ont bravé jeudi l'ultimatum des promoteurs du quartier qui les avaient sommés de démonter leurs tentes avant 18h00 GMT ce jeudi.

Les "indignés" de Londres bravent l'ultimatum de la City - Monde

Plusieurs dizaines de militants anticapitalistes, dont l'initiative s'inspire du mouvement américain "Occupy Wall Street", ont observé une minute de silence avant que la cloche de l'édifice ne sonne l'heure fatidique. La City of London Corporation, qui gère le quartier des affaires, va donc reprendre les procédures judiciaires suspendues il y a deux semaines.

Elle avait donné la veille 24 heures aux manifestants pour évacuer les lieux. "Occupy est une idée et on ne peut évacuer une idée", a déclaré Ronan McNern, l'un des organisateurs du mouvement. Occupy movement: critics have their say. Nigel Farage: 'It's the FSA and its plethora of EU bodies that's failed' I have been unsure, from the start, what the Occupy movement was all about, although I did suspect that it was just fatuous, anti-enterprise, left-wingery.

Occupy movement: critics have their say

However, an evaluation by the new Exeter section of Occupy, helped me to see that the movement is not merely and simplistically anti-capitalist, and made me prick up my ears. Nevertheless, it seems even more the case to me, that Occupy – in looking to besiege the stock exchange – has chosen the wrong target. The banking collapse was caused, more than anything, by bad government policy and the total failure of bad regulation, rather than by greed: even if mighty politico-commercial influences pushed governments into doing what they did, that is another matter – a way of manipulating markets rather than participating properly in them – and was not the fault of the stock exchange. • Nigel Farage is leader of the UK Independence party No.

Help us draft the global statement for the Occupy movement. Occupy London is part of a global movement with links to the Arab Spring, Spain's indignados and Occupy Wall Street. In order to strengthen the voice of the movement, Occupy London Stock Exchange has started drafting an initial statement, with the aim of uniting the various occupations and the wider 99% of the globe. An initial draft inviting other assemblies to partake in the process was released on the same day as the G20 started in Cannes, France, and received positive feedback from the participants of the People's Assembly at the G20 counter-summit. Next, the statement will be worked on by other occupations, assemblies and social movements all over the world in a bid to get all voices heard – the first time this has been attempted. The statement, which addresses the need for a system that is just, truly democratic and sustainable, is not intended to originate from the London occupation.

We are interested in hearing views from outside the occupations, too. Bloomberg empties "Occupy Wall Street" camp. Shooting at UC Berkeley during Occupy protest.
