[Diggers350] Whitehall suprise - cash stash for traveller evictions

[ilyan]

There was a man who had a conflict with a Council in South Wales.   He 
went up on their roof and threw the roofing off.   Flying missiles made 
it a bit spectacular, and there is a hell of a lot of damage done if 
started quietly at night with heavy rain.    I suppose most Councils now 
have their computers backed up in differing locations so a good soaking 
would not destroy their records..

There is an element of class war if people in houses dehome people in 
caravans.   Will there be a  reaction?  then who will be compensating 
the people whose houses get destroyed?    Will it be their insurance or 
the Council.    There might be some difficulty in determining accident 
or arson.    Particularly if more odd sods get involved and decide that 
the destsruction of the insurance industry is a promising start to the 
destruction of Capitalism and such actions would be the best way to wage 
he Class War.    Then the Government will have to pay for its failure.

Congratulations are due to Cameron and his mob.   The whole thing 
managed right could destroy the EU.

But what happened to Zerzan?

Keep it educational fun
