Los Mossos intentan identificar a los @iaioflautas mientras ocupan la Bolsa de Bcn. Occupy, Goodbye ! Il y a 9 mois, beaucoup étaient remplis d’enthousiasme après les meetings à l’affluence inattendue de la place Bolotnaïa et de l’avenue Sakharov.
La révolution était alors dans l’air, le pouvoir faiblissait et se disait prêt à faire des concessions politiques, la question des réélections anticipées de la Douma, le départ de Poutine, la nomination d’un « gouvernement de transition », avec la participation des représentants de l’opposition était envisagée sérieusement. Il fallait alors tenter de tirer les leçons de ces deux protestations de masse. Aujourd’hui, neuf mois après les débuts du mouvement de contestation en décembre, on peut dire que cela n’a abouti à rien politiquement. Poutine est assis en toute confiance dans son fauteuil, la question de nouvelles élections législatives à la Douma est non seulement plus à l’ordre du jour, mais elle a contrattaqué, ayant commencé à licencier les mandats de députés de ses opposants. Aussi, la situation dans le pays aurait été différente. La fin du long siège des "indignés" de Hongkong.

Five Occupy London supporters viewed as a threat to the reputation of the UK economy have had the cases against them thrown out of court – with every single arrest deemed unlawful by the presiding judge.
District Judge Lachhar at Hammersmith Magistrates’ Court in West London dismissed the case this week (19 September) against the M12 five who were arrested by the Royal Exchange, just over the road from the Bank of England on 12 May, at a peaceful Occupy London event. This event, dubbed ‘Meet the 1%‘, aimed to highlight how City institutions which helped to cause the economic crisis are continuing to profit whilst the rest of society faces austerity cuts, and was timed to coincide with an international day of action marked in over 380 cities worldwide.

“Occupy” protest planned in Surrey to oppose major road projects. Surrey activistImtiaz Popat is continuing to raise concerns about the impact a series of major transportation-infrastructure projects could have on his community that sits next to the Fraser River.
Popat is helping to organize an upcoming protest he said is about highlighting the links between opposition to the new Port Mann Bridge, the South Fraser Perimeter Road, and the proposed expansion of the Pattullo Bridge. Popat argues the new 10-lane Port Mann Bridge, which recently had some lanes opened to vehicle traffic, is unnecessary and will not resolve the traffic-congestion problems it is intended to fix. He is also worried about traffic potentially pouring through his residential community to take the Pattullo Bridge as drivers seek to avoid the tolls on the new Port Mann Bridge.
