FYI-->><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">---------- Forwarded message ----------<br>Dear Romayne<br><br>I hope you are well. Sorry to say I still haven't paid my membership for the Coalition yet, but it is on my mind and am hoping to scrape together the dough soon (got a lot on my plate at the moment - wife is heavily pregnant!)<br>
<br>About this Saturday - two questions:<br>
<br>(1) what time will the resolution probably be discussed ? corinna had a look at the website but couldn't find a schedule <br>(2) if we (corinna and i) were to invite comrades from 15M london assembly (ie real democracy now which the peoples assemblies network is aligned with via the uk real democracy campaign) to speak about the social movements in spain and greece, perhaps in the context of the real democracy / people's assembly resolution, but also on the idea of mobilising for october 15th [the world day of action for real democracy, "all as one" as it were) would that be of interest / appropriate ?<br>
<br>here are some great videos from their movement: the 1st from acampadasol now translated into english the second from granada directly aimed in solidarity with the uk and the anti-cuts movement here: <a href="http://www.vimeo.com/m/#/26024198" target="_blank">http://www.vimeo.com/m/#/26024198</a>. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0R90bVcV5Ao" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0R90bVcV5Ao</a><br>
<br> and to hear back from you soon!<br><br>Love<br>Mark<br>Real Democracy Now<br><a href="http://www.peoplesassemblies.org/" target="_blank">www.peoplesassemblies.org</a><div><div></div><div class="h5"><br> <br> <div class="gmail_quote">

The website link is now working - you can pay membership and conference registration together.<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.coalitionofresistance.org.uk/2011/05/cor-2nd-national-conference-9-july-2011/" target="_blank">http://www.<u></u>coalitionofresistance.org.uk/<u></u>2011/05/cor-2nd-national-<u></u>conference-9-july-2011/</a><br>
<br>
You and Corinna can either pay up as individual members and register for conference for a slightly reduced cost than separate membership and conference fees, or your 'small local group' could affiliate for £15 and send three delegates (included in the price) . If more people want to come they can join and register as individual members.<br>
<br>
Let me know if there are any problems booking - you can simply send an email to the CoR address and post or deliver a cheque or cash to Housmans - address on the website.<br>
Best Wishes<br><font color="#888888">

Real Democracy Motion<br>
<br>
In support of a similar, near unanimous decision made at the National Education Assembly of 30th June at the LSE, and in recognition of the various People's Assemblies convened in Britain (eg in Lambeth on May 21st and Liverpool on June 4th) and now throughout Spain and Greece (as part of the Real Democracy Now! movement) the Coalition of Resistance likewise urges communities throughout Britain and Europe to build inclusive city-wide and local People’s Assemblies that can: <br>
<br>
- ensure the anti-cuts movement maintains an effective unity via a genuinely democratic, long-term strategic and non-sectarian process<br>
- unite students, workers, trade unionists, community groups and all those resisting austerity and ConDem cuts, as well as other activists and members of the general public<br>
- develop an alternative democratic voice and permanent/longer -term presence to effectively challenge corporate/financial power and its grip on the existing political system<br>
<br>
Proposed by: Mark Barrett, Councillor, Coalition of Resistance and Organiser, Co-convenor Peoples Assembly Network, Campaign for Real Democracy UK.<br>
Seconded by: Corinna Lotz, Councillor, Coalition of Resistance, Co-convenor, Peoples Assembly Network, and Secretary, A World to Win<br>
