We could find no humour over them, nothing to belittle, ridicule, nor punch up at. We also avoided the crowds over Covid fears. I’m pretty much in

Get put in charge of government. Yay. No more Libtards. Implement laws making face masks illegal. Damned rioters. Refuse Carbon Tax income distribution schemes that put money into your budget. Double down on digging tar out of the ground. Jobs jobs jobs. Reduce taxes (eliminating your income source) to focus

CNT-F FACES EVICTION FROM LONG-TERM HEADQUARTERS
The CNT-f is the larger of the two anarchosyndicalist/revolutionary syndicalist union federations in France. They have traditionally been called the ‘CNT-Vignoles’ after their headquarters at 33 rue Vignoles in Paris. They have survived a previous attempt to evict them in 1996, but now they are facing a fresh attack from the Mayor of Paris.
The following is their statement on the events. The original French version can be here. You can follow events from either their website or from the site of their newspaper Combat Syndicaliste. These events seem reminiscent of the eviction of the Spanish CGT from their headquarters at 18 Via Laietana in Barcelona back in 2011. Hopefully this time around the good guys will win against the government.
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
EVICTION AT 33 RUE DES VIGNOLES
In a recent letter the City of Paris has come to unilaterally terminate the ongoing discussions about the continuation of the CNT in its historic location at 33 Rue des Vignoles. We were also “invited” to leave on the pretext of carry out ‘rehabilitation’ work.
Previously in 1996 the then-Mayor Tiberi voted for the demolition of 33. She had to retreat in the face of mobilization of the local residents, associations and the CNT.
We, paramedics, masons, primary school teachers, labourers, nurses’ aides, truck drivers, teachers’ aides, metal workers, architects, technicians, journalists, postal workers, etc. who form the CNT unions in region of Paris:
We who in this XXnd arrondissement walk in the footsteps of the Paris Commune and those of the Bourses du Travail of the CGT in the beginning of the 20th century:
We who at 33 Rue des Vignoles walk in the footsteps of our older brothers and sisters of the Confederacion Nacional de Trabahadores, anti-fascists, survivors of the Nazi camps, the Resistance and the liberation of Paris:
We who continue the struggle for the emancipation of the working world at the beginning of the 21st century:
We who to maintain this place in acceptable conditions while the City of Paris has done nothing for almost 20 years:
We will resist again. Yesterday in the face of Tiberi it was the violence of bulldozers. Today with Delancé it is the violence of King Money.
This CNT has called a public meeting for information, solidarity and support from all who want a living Paris, a revolutionary Paris.

Hypocrisy is flowing from the anti-choice sites like turds from a overfull diaper.

The pious fucks are equating abortion to the recent mass murder at Sandyhook Elementary School. How
