Grass Roots Movement – The People Call The Strike Themselves!

Facebook group ‘ BIG PEACE OFFENSIVE UK’

Make the pledge to SAVE LIFE and STOP WAR

2012 Prepare to “DO NOTHING” and “BUY NOTHING” for Peace.

TROOPS HOME

The writing is on the wall. We have failed to get our troops home. They will not bring our military back to this country because they need them strategically placed for the next war with Iran.

What can we do to be effective against this madness. As peaceful people we must become disciplined and self reliant and trust that what we are about to undertake is right, because it is right.

Morally, we each have a duty of care towards our fellow human being, whoever and wherever they are.

At some point, at a given time, we will need to SHUT DOWN for peace.

“DO NOTHING” and BUY NOTHING” is the only way we, the ordinary person will be taken seriously of by our Governments.

We must not allow a repeat of the unfounded statements made against Iraq, that has lead to the destruction of a sovereign nation, for no good reason.

We must not allow the media propaganda to take over, and rule our hearts and minds.

Take courage, start to prepare now, emotionally, we will need to be strong.

PEACE CAMP UNDER THREAT

Peace Strike Statement From Parliament Square 17th December 2011

The Peace Strike Campaign at Parliament Square announces to all concerned citizens that there is a real possibility of the ‘Peace Camp’ being disassembled and removed this Monday 19th December 2011.

A ‘Commencement Order’ has been issued to activate part of the new ‘Police Reform and Social Responsibility Act 2011′

SOCPA 2005 parts 132 to 136 and 138 still stand, and will be repealed on the 30th March 2012.

http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2011/2834/note/made

However, parts of the PRSR Act 2011 are being activated this Monday, which will make it an offence to sleep overnight at Parliament Square, and any items deemed associated with ‘sleeping’ will be confiscated by an official in authority or a police officer. SOCPA 2005 Part 137 (use of loudspeakers) is repealed on this date.

http://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2011/2834/article/2/made

This is a strange situation as anyone with authorisation would still have ‘permission to demonstrate over a 24hr period’ however, they would now be denied shelter. This would directly contravene the ‘Human Rights Act’, Articles 10 and 11 which allow for the right to freedom of expression and freedom of Assembly. How can you carry on over a 24hr period, which is allowed, but not have the means to do so, which was legal before? There are many questions to raise.

The big issue is that the people will loose possession of parliament Square, and it will then become a controlled area.

Now more than ever, people need to be seen out on the streets. They need to be seen by the Government of the day. There is so much social injustice that is effecting so many people in so many parts of the world. All these issues are all connected.

The ongoing Congo demonstration is an example of a great social injustice that has been allowed to happen, and has been funded and supported by the West. There has been an orchestrated international silence. The Genocide in the Congo is off the scale in modern history.

War is looming with Iran, we need to organise NOW for ‘PRE-EMPTIVE STRIKES FOR PEACE’.

Our message is as important as ever. Provided that, within reason, people are demonstrating in a peaceful manner, then there should not be any objection as to how long they need to demonstrate. What harm there is, has not been identified.

The real question the Government needs to ask is:

‘WHY ARE PEOPLE DEMONSTRATING?’

‘WHAT ARE THEIR ISSUES?’

‘WHY ARE THEY SO UP UPSET?’

Government should be prepared to meet with grass root campaigners.

People do not stand in the wind, sleet and rain for endless hours without there being a very REAL concern.

The ‘Times’ magazine has just voted ‘The Protester’ as person of the year 2011. International protest has brought to the front the ignored concerns of the multitudes.

David Cameron advocates that the UK take up Christian values. ‘Love Thy Neighbour’ is the main responsibility of Christians with a ‘duty of care’ for one another. Quite right David, what greater way to express this than to stand up for injustice against our fellow human being.

Support would be appreciated on Monday 19th so that our concerns can be put forward in a peaceful manner.

Many thanks as always,

Message From Winston Churchill Speaking live from Parliament Square on behalf of Peace Strike and all demonstrators :)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmWfBgCaB7g

I address the Nation on very grave matter that threaten the very core of what Britain stands for nationally and internationally. A threat that will try to engulf and wash away our freedoms. It is a time when we must unite and resist this tyranny together.

“I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the best arrangements are made, as they are being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our Island home Parliament Square, to ride out the storm of oppression, and to outlive the menace of tyranny,

The British Nation, linked together in their common cause and in their need, will defend to the end their protest rights, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength.

Even though many countries in Europe act very harshly towards political dissidents, we shall not flag or fail in our endeavours to speak out for the common good.

We shall go on to the end, we shall peacefully resist,
we shall resist in Whitehall,
we shall resist with growing confidence and growing strength in Westminster, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be,
we shall resist in Parliament Square,
we shall resist on the land,
we shall resist in the fields and in the streets,
we shall resist in the hills;
Peacestrike shall never surrender.

The gratitude of every home in our Island, in our Nation, and indeed throughout the world, except in the abodes of the guilty, goes out to the British Political Resistors who, undaunted by odds, unwearied in their constant legal challenge, are turning the tide of the Political oppression by their continuous ongoing protest.

Never in the history of protest in our country, was so much planned, by so many, to so few.

All the great things are simple, and many can be expressed in a single word: Freedom, Justice, Honour, Duty, Mercy, Hope.

I say to you now, people of Great Britain,

We must end the corporate war in Afghanistan,

We must honour our troops,

We must bring them home!

In achieving this mighty task, after nearly a decade of war

We will be able to proclaim THIS IS OUR FINEST HOUR.

URGENT STATEMENT FROM PEACE STRIKE

TO END WAR – AND PREVENT WAR – THE PEOPLE MUST GO ON STRIKE”

‘TROOPS HOME’ – ‘DON’T ATTACK IRAN’

It’s up to us, the grass-roots movement!

YOU CAN’T BE ARRESTED FOR “BUYING NOTHING” AND “DOING NOTHING!”

We all know our Government is NOT listening to us and is allowing the situation in the Middle East to build up to further confrontation. We must organise and act now, if we really want a chance to stop a war with Iran.

We cannot afford to think this might not happen!

We cannot repeat the mistakes of the past and leave it until an attack on Iran is imminent or a pre-emptive strike has been made. Even if an attack were to be officially declared, by  then, marches, rallies, sit-ins and protests would not be effective and would be too little, to late.

REALITY CHECK – Let’s all unite and go on strike together for all the reasons mentioned, with the aim of actually achieving our objective.

10 years of protesting, marching, campaigning and lobbying has simply not been enough!

We have NOT STOPPED ANY WAR……….THEREFORE….WE NEED TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION NOW!

Our priority must be to bring our own troops home in order to prevent further war. The military industrial complex has the same wants and needs of mass global companies. Collectively, the military consume the most oil, therefore, they MUST secure more oil supplies, whatever the cost. Global companies buy, take over and dominate by financial power. If they can’t buy or control a country, they will demonise the country and then BOMB it into submission. They are the two arms of the same beast. The military is being used as the ‘armed wing’ of the Global Corporate Empire. By demanding to ‘Bring Our Troops Home’ and prevent further war, we will directly compromise and effect the political, commercial and military power all at the same time.

The governments of the world will always ignore the people’s natural opposition to war simply because they can. The only real power the people have is to refuse to comply. While we keep working, they launch ships, submarines, fighter jets, missiles, rockets, drones, deploy soldiers,…..and ignore our wishes….

We are the ones who fund the war effort, fund the repatriations, fund the funerals, fund the rehabilitation, fund the post traumatic distress disorders, and then also pay voluntary contributions to the many charities that support our war wounded. All this, and then, if we disagree with the justification and morality of the war, we live in fear of being labelled ‘unpatriotic’ It is a clever control method that always works!
We must act now, while we still can, in order to prevent a future world based on military order and compliance. By collectively being on “Peace Strike” together, we – the ordinary people – become the most powerful that we can be. We will send a clear message to our government that we will not support any acts of aggression towards innocent citizens of any country… we will not be deceived into waging wars for ‘Global Corporate’ greed and power.

We are now organizing Pre-emptive Peace Strikes.

YOU DO NOT NEED A UNION TO CALL A  ‘STRIKE FOR PEACE’  THE PEOPLE CALL IT THEMSELVES!

YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE A WORKER TO GO ON STRIKE FOR PEACE!

Includes: students, pensioners, housewives, anyone and everyone on benefit and disability allowance.

Anyone who does any activity “within the system” is actually supporting it. Therefore we need 3 days of:

NO SHOPPING! – BUY NOTHING!

NO LABOUR ! – Only emergency workers and essential workers carry on, the rest of us shut down.

NO SCHOOL, COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY, NURSERYTo prevent death and injury to others, it is more important to register your concerns, rather  than worry about a few days off.

NO TRANSPORT! Buses, underground, trains, planes.

NO TV! They sensationalise war.

*Strike does not include emergency and essential workers whose work and travel we support. Police, Fire Service, Nurses, Doctors, Ambulance,  Carers and Emergency Utility Workers.

# 3 Day INTERNATIONAL STRIKE for PEACE #

30th NOVEMBER 2011…

TO END WAR – THE PEOPLE MUST GO ON STRIKE”

From Midnight Thursday 29th November – 12 Noon Saturday 3rd December 2011

Across the UK people will be striking to highlight the severe financial cuts our Government has imposed on the people of our country, as a direct result of our on-going illegal wars of aggression against the people of Afghanistan.

Education, Health Care, Civil Liberties, Pensions, Employment, Legal Aid, Libraries, Housing,

the list goes on…….

Meanwhile, we are expected to find money to pay the EU bankers for the financial crisis created by their own greed and incompetence.

WE PAY THEIR BILLS !

WILL THEY PAY OURS?……..NO!……THEY SEND THE BAILIFFS!

The on-going war in Afghanistan has cost BILLIONS. Soldiers, civilians, women and children have been killed and seriously wounded. WHAT FOR?

…..Because endless global wars are HUGLY PROFITABLE.

Why then, do we all go along with it? We know it’s wrong, yet we submit like sheep everyday !

Sorry, but by complying, we allow our Government to wage illegal, immoral wars of aggression.
If we really want to address the situation and deliver justice to the people of Afghanistan, if we really want to regain our self respect as a nation and as a people, then we must unite and stand together to DEMAND that our Government stops hostilities and orders the troops home. Some will have to stay for humanitarian reasons.

We don’t need a world full of armies opposing each other. We need to feed the hungry, tend to the sick, and clothe and shelter the poor. That is the duty of humankind, whether we like it or not.

It’s not rocket science!

Reality check- Let’s all unite and go on strike together for all the reasons mentioned, with the aim of actually achieving our objective.

10 years of protesting, marching, campaigning and lobbying has simply not been enough!

We have NOT STOPPED ANY WAR……….THEREFORE….

TO END WAR – THE PEOPLE MUST GO ON STRIKE”

We now need to SHUT DOWN for 3 Days in order for our strike to be effective.

By collectively being on “Peace Strike” together, we – the ordinary people – become the most powerful that we can be. We will send a clear message to our government that we will not support any acts of aggression towards innocent citizens of any country… we will not be deceived into waging wars for ‘Global Corporate’ greed and power.

INTERNATIONAL STRIKE FOR PEACE”

Including pensioners, housewives, students, claimants, the disabled, families, etc., joining together in solidarity for peace.

*Note This does not include emergency workers and carers, whose work and travel we support. Police, Fire Service, Nurses, Doctors, Ambulance Crews, Carers, and Emergency Utility Workers.

*WITHDRAW LABOUR* No Work

*NO SHOPPING* Boycott all shops & supermarkets

*SHUTDOWN* Nurseries, Schools, Colleges, Universities

*DON’T BUY PETROL* Boycott all petrol stations

*NO TRANSPORT* Except emergency & essential workers

*NO TV* Boycott the TV networks – they sensationalise war

Forward Plan:

Prepare for the strike days in advance so that we are organised and have enough food, drink and medical supplies to carry us over a week to facilitate any disruption our action may cause us.

Make sure we have enough provisions for children and the elderly, our families,not forgetting any pets.

Let people in your area know, including older and vulnerable people, so they have time to prepare.

Enjoy your time off to relax and reflect; spend precious time with family and friends. Treat it like you would an extended Christmas break.

* If necessary, we will continue to call follow-up strikes, in order to make our Government comply with the wishes 0f the people -who elected them- and whom they serve.

Under international law it is a criminal offence to assist in a crime against humanity, a crime against peace and a crime of genocide. Therefore to go ‘ON STRIKE FOR PEACE’ to save life can only be a moral duty and not an offence in law.

(Source: Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court, Article 25)

(c) For the purpose of facilitating the commission of such a crime, aid, abet or otherwise assist in its commission or its attempted commission, including providing the means for its commission

We ask all people to be united in peaceful non-violent inaction.

Pass the message on, nationally and internationally.

Peace Strike operates a 24-hour on-going ‘Peace Picket’ at Parliament Square, London, UK.

HUNGER STRIKE ENDS DAY 41

"UNITY AND DEMOCRACY FOR KOREA"

Okhwan Yoon officially ended his hunger strike on day 41, Saturday 6th August 2011.

He was in a very weak condition. After a lot of consideration it was decided that it was in the best interest to look to the future and to continue his campaign work in yet another interesting and dynamic way. The political climate at the moment is not ready or willing to take on board the issues of peace and unity when so much of the political message is based on fear and the so-called “War On Terror”

It will take some time for him to build up his strength and energy, and to get back into full operational mode! There is no rush at the moment, as the emphasise must be that he fully recovers.

He would like to extend his sincere gratitude to all the supporters and well wishers who have conveyed  support for his cause. Also a thank you is given to local church Ministers who visited and prayed for him.

We must keep an open and positive mind….remember, the Berlin wall did FALL!

KOREAN HUNGER STRIKE DAY 40

Petition into No 10 Downing Street.

Petition handed in this morning to No 10 Downing Street, official home of the British Prime Minister David Cameron.

Okhwan Yoon continues his “Hunger Strike for Peace” opposite St. Margaret’s Church, in the shadows of Westminster cathedral. During the day it is unbearably hot in his small insignificant tent that is lost in the array of similar tents along the pavement.

His message continues…….

“ONE KOREA, ONE WORLD”
