"Here began the revolution" - reads a banner in Plaza Catalunya, Barcelona .
About what is happening in the English State, as an echo of what happened in the Arab world and other societies of the European Union by the media silenced mass communication - Iceland, Greece, France, UK, etc .- , we can see that there is a will to transform assumed by a heterogeneous group has burst onto the political and social reality, whose ultimate goal is the transformation of an economic system that has manipulated the previous two ... That is, these protests are not being questioned at an institution, political party, a state, economic policy, or a way to understand these policies, but questioned the system that has engendered, and in particular to "democracy" that emerged from the monarchical transition, where the major parties -Partido Popular (right ) Socialist Party (Social Democrats) and other games with the forming coalitions to achieve power- are an inseparable part of the origin of all these social problems that have triggered the will of a people and a lead taken by the "lost generation", referring to that group of citizens who have been born a slave inserted into seemingly lethargic, but now wielding banners of the struggle and give examples of social organization around ideas.
In that sense, these statements are not a fluke situation immediately derived from the current economic policy, which rescued the great are those who have generated global financial crisis, while the common citizen is drowned out the total helplessness of that which has been called "the shock doctrine ", in the shadow of which is empty of content, the labor and social rights conquered, as had not been seen in recent history , in fact that economic situation is just the catalyst for a growing social discontent arising from the policies of the "Social Europe" that has never existed for the citizens, but and only to satisfy the markets, just as virtual platforms have only organization was a means of continuing premium for a "snowball effect" and the riots in the Arab world, especially Egypt and Tunisia - the immediate example of such a system is created, shown and taught immovable may be brought down with a strong activation and collective will of the grassroots.
In essence, 15M-2011 has allowed citizens to shed their fears to make way for the organization of the masses by the masses, away from traditional political and trade union organizations for which they have been betrayed, remember that the trigger for this process should have been taken by unions in the successful general strike in support of 29S-2010, however, reveal the same ended the betrayal of these major trade unions, UGT and CCOO (backed by the Izquierda Unida) - and divorce the same with their constituencies, and these unions is that they sat down to negotiate, plan and agree with the political establishment the drastic reductions rights that now dominate the employment landscape of the English state, and thus achieved its other goal, the demobilization of the masses on this fact we find the ultimate reason why this heterogeneous group "apolitical" really are -political subjects, exercise and promoting the transformation from a spontaneous organization and assembly-lift- waived flags the traditional political and trade union organizations. This does not mean that the facts are spontaneous, much less, because this is the result of years of work undertaken by the real left- common embodied by the militant organizations, networks and social- if fragmented, very active in the complaint and agitation of its bases about the infeasibility of neoliberal capitalism, implemented as dogma from the realms of national power, union and supra-sovereign ...
immigrants, the facts are in genuine opportunity to reveal the injustices of a system that has exploited as labor force, yet remain at the tail of the rights and social structures, even when they have played an active role in economic and social development, even with reasons for elections are used as an electoral weapon throwing ... also the ideal event to report results in the migration policies of EU , especially the implementation of Centers for Foreigners (the European Guantánamo) , where are detained for administrative violations thousands of people around the planet ...
This citizen action that results in unpredictable times is presented as the only alternative to a social reality where we found 5 million workers -20% of the economically active population unemployed derived from the financial crisis, and that hatched from reforms and power are in utter neglect and defenseless against the bosses that the hand of politicians and major trade unions continue down the entire structure of rights, at the time, the entire economic effort is aimed at rescuing to the bank to continue to be recipient of the state, and very expensive to support military aggression states sovereign.
proposals are telling protesters (most important):
1. And real democracy.
2. Reform of the electoral law, electoral rolls open and elimination of the electoral lists to defendants by the courts.
3. A social economic policy.
4. Abolition of discriminatory laws and measures and unfair: Plan Act Bologna and the European Higher Education Area, the Immigration Law and the Law Sinde.

7. Programs and policy proposals are of an binding.
8. To apply Article 128 of the Constitution, which states that "all the wealth of the country in its different forms and whatever its ownership is subordinated to the general interest" , and nationalization of banks rescued ...

10. Business recovery privatized public.
11. Reduction in military spending, immediate closure of the weapons factories and more control of security forces and the state. As the peace movement believe in the "No War."
12. Recovery of Historical Memory and the founding principles of the struggle for democracy in our state.
13. Total transparency of accounts and financing of political parties as a measure of containment of political corruption.
14. Referendum on monarchy or republic.
15. Investigation and conviction of those responsible for the economic meltdown.
16. Fight against xenophobia.
In short, we are at the first sign of the manifestation of class struggle dissipated by the false sense of well-being to these facts because the precedent is fundamental to the development of a struggle threat to the system implemented by those who dominate policy Union, and beyond the attainment of the objectives raised in the same results in a success, has led to the activation of a broad social sector so far dormant.
wind of change ...
