Citizens of Britain,

The riots that we have witnessed over the last week, whilst violent and
misguided, are a product of decades of neglect inflicted on your country by
various governments. We do not condone mindless thuggery, but that does not
stop us from seeing the reality behind it.

Your politicians and the media do their best to avoid seeing that reality.
They would rather manipulate public anger in order to cloud judgment and
create division. They will use these riots as an excuse to withdraw civic
freedoms, increase draconian police powers, and discourage legitimate
protest. By placing their emphasis on mindless criminality, your politicians
mask the extent to which a significant section of society is stuck in an
impoverished way of life with little hope for the future.

Anonymous senses your displeasure and witnesses the iron fist of the state
being used more and more often to put down dissent before it begins. We note
also the ever increasing tide of propaganda issued to justify these
repressive acts. The law is no longer the protector of the citizens but the
protector of a wealthy few from the many, who have very little. Justice has
become yet another commodity that only the wealthy can afford.

We sympathise with the anger that seethes under the facade of your country's
diplomatic image. It is time to take a stand and realise that solutions will
not be found in today's corrupt political landscape. You should seize this
opportunity to rally for freedom. Anonymous stands with you in this struggle
and will fight alongside you in the battle for permanent change. Let your
enemies stand forewarned.

Saturday October 15th 2011 will be your opportunity for rebellion. We call
on Britain to unite and organise peacefully. Unions, anti-cuts groups,
community organisations, students, activists, citizens: you know your
political system is not fit for purpose. Rally your supporters and stand
together in holding mass protests in your major cities. Together you can
send a powerful message to your government: you are the people of Britain
and your voice WILL be heard.

Yours sincerely,
Operation Britain

We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
We do not forgive.
We do not forget.
Expect us.
