    they are happening in many cities across the UK... http://www.occupytogether.org/actions/ and you don't have to be a permanent fixture... you could just pop in on a day when you not working and say hi to show support if you want... i'm sure you will be welcomed :)

    ooh...I even found an ''Occupy Bristol''. It looks pretty small, but it'd be much easier for me to get to. Are you involved in any of them, lillally?

    So what exactly is the agenda of the occupy movement? I personally think it is to keep the unhappy people busy with no agenda, and thus not voting or acting in any manner that equates to any form of change. I can not change anything from the comfort of my own home, but I will meet less people. So basically I think the occupy movement is a place to meet chicks or dudes, whichever you prefer. Girls who like boys who like girls who make signs......

    i think the common agenda is to put an end to the endemic corrupt relationships between politics, media, the judicial system and corporations... that is what i am there for anyway and i have heard many others speaking of this...

    Uniting peoples is difficult bit not impossible.
    Though different circumstances I remember the power of the people if not wholeheartedly succeeding 'on the day' then certainly breaking the back of discrimination and foreign war.
    (1 min 23 to 1 min -32 = an eerie reminder of how governing concern felt that the issue should be addressed in 1968)
    Quite simply we need, and have, to be 'United' in stance and have faith.
    For divided we will fall, and faith, can move mountains

    there's a difference between a 'stand for change'

    and being a general nuisance.

    all it means is until christmas at least

    a banker will almost certainly sleep better than anybody else

    because at least they have the common sense

    to sleep in their warm beds.
