[Imc-cymru] Action network

[Ilyan]

Dear Kelvin,

 I take it you are unlikely to go to Cilmeri on Saturday.  Or to go to 
the South Wales Linux Users Group in Carmarthen Wetherspoons on the 
evening of the 19th.  I intend to be at those.  

In case you do not know- UK is does not stand for United Kingdom, but 
United Kollectives.  

Building a new Indycymru site  starts when it is known if it can be an 
indymedia linked site.   Basically we await a formal rejection to the  
application, if they were going to approve we should have heard by now. 
   The Indycymru Editors did not apply to become part of the United 
Konformists you seem so keen to join.  Indycymru  ran for about  four 
years before the sabotage that occurred soon after Indycymru's IMC 
application was sent in.

As anyone can already post anything they like on the UK site until it is 
hidden, putting up a welsh section is a bit pointless, particularly as 
it involves paying your way with doing a share of the hiding on the UK 
site, and people seem unwilling to do that.    

What is hidden comes up on 
http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/viewallposts.html  but they limit the 
number that can be seen,  they soon vanish into just numbers.  So it is 
difficult to follow discussions and argument - they hide anything that 
is not "News".    It is not like Indycymru was where there was a long 
list of the archive in date order anyone could call up to follow or 
contribute an argument.    I only know of one item (Greenwar Gathering 
announcement) that was taken down from there - I believe by someone who 
was later an Editor in UKindymedia.   Though the draft of a document in 
process of being written to persuade Free Wales Army people to take a 
stronger anti-racist line was dumped by an unknown person -probably the 
same one.

As far as I am concerned Indycymu disseminated ideas.   That is not a 
function of UK
And indycymru gave support to all the Nations in the same conquered 
condition as Wales.   The Basques, West Papua, Hawaii, Bougainville, etc 
etc.  So who do you think were the people who did the sabotage?   
Reactionary Imperialists determined to 'pacify' the resistance to  a 
Capitalism that Blair now evolves into Fascism?
