Nice and civilised then. :rolleyes:

The idea of burning effigys makes me feel sick, I don't have the desire to murder people simply because I don't agree with what they have done/believe. :(

Well how about a compromise, use auto da fe rules. If the effigies atone for the crimes of those they represent then they get the mercy of being strangled before being burned. Can't say fairer than that.

and a socialist!

More an Anarchist, I would have thought.

After all, that business of trashing the temple and tossing the moneylenders' cash to the poor, IIRC, was a pretty nifty bit of direct action.

Assuming that Jesus existed, and all that biblical malarkey ever happened, of course.

what class was Judas?

So stand up, stand up for Judas and the cause that Judas served
It was Jesus who betrayed the poor with his word

The Romans were the masters when Jesus walked the land
In Judea and in Galilee they ruled with an iron hand
And the poor were sick with hunger and the rich were clothed in splendour
And the rebels whipped and crucified hung rotting as a warning
And Jesus knew the answer
Said, Give to Caesar what is Caesar's, said, Love your enemies
But Judas was a Zealot and he wanted to be free
Resist, he said, The Romans' tyranny

Jesus was a conjuror, miracles were his game
And he fed the hungry thousands and they glorified his name
He cured the lame and the lepers, he calmed the wind and the weather
And the wretched flocked to touch him so their troubles would be taken
And Jesus knew the answer
All you who labour, all you who suffer only believe in me
But Judas sought a world where no one starved or begged for bread
The poor are always with us, Jesus said

Now Jesus brought division where none had been before
Not the slaves against their masters but the poor against the poor
Set son to rise up against father, and brother to fight against brother
For he that is not with me is against me, was his teaching
Said Jesus, I am the answer
You unbelievers shall burn forever, shall die in your sins
Not sheep and goats, said Judas, But together we may dare
Shake off the chains of misery we share

Jesus stood upon the mountain with a distance in his eyes
I am the way, the life, he cried, The light that never dies
So renounce all earthly treasures and pray to your heavenly father
And he pacified the hopeless with the hope of life eternal
Said Jesus, I am the answer
And you who hunger only remember your reward's in Heaven
So Jesus preached the other world but Judas wanted this
And he betrayed his master with a kiss

By sword and gun and crucifix Christ's gospel has been spread
And 2.000 cruel years have shown the way that Jesus led
The heretics burned and tortured, and the butchering, bloody crusaders
The bombs and rockets sanctified that rain down death from heaven
They followed Jesus, they knew the answer
All non-believers must be believers or else be broken
So put no trust in Saviours, Judas said, For everyone
Must be to his or her own self - a sun

CLASS WAR BONFIRE NIGHT – BURN THATCHER ON LONDON
FIELDS

Class War are hosting a bonfire night at London Fields
on Saturday, 5 November. Four hundred years after the
Gunpowder Plot, we are modernising the guys –
Margaret Thatcher and Tony Blair will be burned in
effigy. People are encouraged to bring along their own
effigies – starting with Hackney’s own Jules Pipe,
Diane Abbott and Meg Hillier. It’s nice to know
they’re good for something!

Hackney Council aren’t holding a firework display this
year, so Class War are willing to step into the gap.
Bring friends, fireworks, firewood, and a couple of
bottles – and effigies – to London Fields, 7 for
7.30pm, Saturday 5 November.

NOTES FOR EDITORS:

1) Further details available from Hugh Owen on 07986
041 207
2) This is a one of a series of events which will
culminate in a party in Trafalgar Square at 6pm on the
Saturday after Thatcher dies.
 
i might come down for this. i've been in london 2 weeks in a fucking row, i might as well move back :D

PS if theres some really good fireworks, save one of that sort for the trafalgar sq party.
