Activist arrests in Wellington Posted: 16 Oct 2007 21:36
In the interests of supporting those who have been arrested, discussions were held last night at 128 Able Smith St.
I am re-posting a statement verbatim from Indymedia Collective, as a response to those who are concerned or confused about what is being said in media and local gossip.
Quote:
This morning I opened the herald to see what the bullshit the media were spinning about the raids and saw a comment allegedly from a flatmate of one of the activists arrested yesterday in Auckland.
I thought it would be obvious not to comment to the media but apparently not.
I guess I just want to remind people not to talk amongst themselves and speculate and especially do not talk to the media. They are not your friends and they will use you to get the inside scoop.
This was obvious in another article I got forwarded this morning from Bomber’s blog. He was sniffing around last night at Unite and had cornered some less experienced activists and was asking them what was going on…
As someone quite rightly put it last night….’if not one talks, everyone walks’.
It is not gossip it is fucken serious and some of our comrades are facing a long time behind bars, it would be good if people could remember that.
Now is an important time to remember AND PRACTISE those good old rules about security culture and solidarity!
The media are easy to ignore however the filth is a different story and it is likely that they will want to ‘talk’ to some people. If you are concerned about this and don’t know what your rights are etc… please seek the advise of an experienced activist who you TRUST. Maybe we need to have a workshop around this sometime in the next few days so that everyone is confident.
Love and solidarity!
Please respect the very serious position that the arrests have put some of our very dear friends in.
We have already seen a former policeman, Detective John Dewar, convicted for perverting the course of justice in the Shipton/Schollum/Rickards case; we know they lie.
The case at hand is under District Court strictures, there are suppression orders in place. We would prefer activists not to be branded as terrorists, in the face of Police PR and dubiously executed search warrants, and media clutching at straws to create a “good story”.
To all who have offered support, thanks on behalf of activists who do not have access to these forums. A legal fund has been started, and practical support for the arrestees on remand has begun.

When is the Green Party going to come clean about its strong ties to the anarchist movement and its links to those arrested on October 15th?

“filth”??????
Wot she mean????
Trev, you told me that your basis for saying I was pro-animal rights was an assumption based on the fact that some of my friends are. You said that you were “just drawing me out”. You also published a photo saying it was me when it wasn’t and you’ve done the same to others. So how am I misrepresenting you?
Frankly, a lot of your ‘facts’ are just guesswork or exaggeration. You are welcome to publish speculation, but I think you shhould be honest that this is all it is.
Cheers
Sam Buchanan
You misrepresent what i actually said Sam. As far as i know its all kosher.
BTW I thought I’d do a profile on you shortly.
Would you like me to email it to you before I publish it?
In the interests of accuracy.
We are preparing a pamphlet now.

“Nothing to see here!”
Trev, given that you admitted posting statements about my beliefs that were merely “assumptions” or “drawing me out”, could you tell me what in this post is something you know and what is merely supposition?
Cheers
