Mayday Round Up

Mayday is international workers day; a day we celebrate the battles we’ve won and remember those who have fallen in battle, particularly the Haymarket Martyrs.

As part of this historic day Worthing Anarchists travelled to London where, as well as the traditional trade union March, thousands of people occupied Parliament Square and the road outside parliament. Mayday protests took place all over the world and below is a round up of some of these, A special mention goes out to the Anarchists in Greece who look like they’re gonna overthrow a government or two this year!
