[OccupySheffield] [INT] Fwd: [Squares] MAYDAY! MAYDAY!

[jamie kelsey-fry]

Wow

I am with that Mayday call out 100%.

"a continuous strike, a permanent
withdrawal from the current system, a signal for all those who feel
their work to be meaningless and unsatisfying, to switch to
alternative means which are beneficial to the whole community, to
support themselves and their families"

To me, this is the profound escalation that the movement needs. Brilliant.

Between now and May, there is enough time to make this happen as long as it
becomes the focus globally very soon. Definitely something for Sheffield?

Best

Jamie
