well if you are sick of those of us in the political parties there is always the Anarchist alternative, thought I would flag up the wiki on the Green Anarchy, have of course posted on Murray Bookchin before .... the green anarchists range from primitivists to WHO workerists disagree with EACH other as much as the left or greens or other group.
Rather liked the design of Green Anarchist in the early days by Richard Hunt (WHO rather depressingly right move and was always a bit of patriarchical Anarchist).
Brings back happy memories of the green free festivals in the 1980s.
Here is the wiki .... part of the story involves the which saw green wizard trial anarchists imprisoned in the UK, Yes We have political prisoners as well, Saxon's mum has been a Town Councillor for the Green Party in my local party in Sandhurst!
[Edit] Early years
Founded after the 1984 Stop the City protests, the magazine was launched in the summer of That year by an editorial collective consisting of Alan Albon, Richard Hunt and Marcus Christo. Albon Had been an editor of Freedom newspaper, whilst Hunt Had changed from frustrated with the more mainstream 'green' magazine Green Line for the which he Had been writing. The younger Christo Had come from a more anarcho-punk background - he was Also a member of Green CND, and Had been involved in the blockade of Ronald Reagan's car at the 1984 Lancaster House summit meeting.
Cover of the first issue of 'Green Anarchist' magazine (Summer 1984), featuring artwork by then editor Richard HuntEarly issues featured a range of broadly Anarchist and ecological ideas, Bringing together groups and individuals as Varied as Class War, Anarchist veteran writer Colin Ward , anarcho-punk band Crass, as well as the Peace Convoy, anti-nuclear campaigners, animal rights activists and so on. However the diversity That many saw as the publication's greatest strength led to irreconcilable arguments Quickly Between the essentially pacifist approach of Albon and Christo, and the advocacy of violent confrontation with the State Favoured by Hunt.
Albon and Christo Green Anarchist left shortly afterwards, and the magazine saw a succession of editorial Collectives, although Hunt remained in overall control. During this period he published articles the which were the resource persons increasingly alienating much of the magazine's readership. Matters Came to a head after Hunt wrote an editorial the which expressed support for British Troops in the Gulf War and extolled the virtues of patriotism. Shortly afterwards he left to start another magazine Alternative Green, the which continued to promote his own particular view of 'Nationalist anarchism'.
[Edit] Into the Nineties
During the 1990s the Green Anarchist Came under the helm of the editorial collective That included Paul Rodgers, Steve Booth and others, During the which period the publication Became increasingly aligned with primitivism, an anti-technological philosophy advocated by writers Such as John Zerzan, Bob Black and Fredy Perlman.
During this period, the magazine expressed Sympathy for the Unabomber Ted Kaczynski and actions of a Notorious published article entitled "The Irrationalists" that apparently supported actions Such as the Oklahoma City bombing and the sarin gas attacks carried out by the Tokyo-based Aum cult. This once again Alienated much of the UK Anarchist movement, and led to strong criticism of the magazine by Stewart Home [1], Counter Information [2], the Anarchist Communist Federation [3] and others. Steven Booth, the writer of the article, has since renounced the views expressed in it.
[Edit] The Gandalf trial
Main article: Gandalf trial
Starting in 1995, Hampshire Police began a series of at least 56 raids, code named 'Operation Washington', that eventually resulted in the August to November 1997 Portsmouth trial of Green Anarchist editors Booth, Saxon Wood, Noel Molland and Paul Rodgers, as well as Animal Liberation Front (ALF) press officer Robin Webb and Animal Liberation Front Supporters Group (ALFSG) newsletter editor Simon Russell. The defendants organized the Gandalf Defence campaign. Three of the editors of Green Anarchist, Noel Molland, Saxon Wood and Booth were the resource persons jailed for 'conspiracy to incite'. However, shortly afterwards all three were the resource persons released on appeal.
