Formerly known as Colchester Anarchist Group (CAG), we have recently changed our name, as we feel anarchism represented only a small part of the socialist traditions we embrace. We also came to feel that anarchism (at least in Britain) has been irrepairably tainted by association with 'lifestylist', anti-social and anti-organisationalist elements. ... read full story / add a comment

Agencies like CF Sharp Crew (which was Salvacion's employer by the way) have been used by shipping companies for decades as a device to drive down sailors' pay, and to take the blame or legal responsibility for horror stories like Salvacion's . They operate in countries where labour laws are so unfair and so weakly applied that they facilitate this robbery from labour by ruthless profit-seekers. ... read full story / add a comment
