An archive of the London-based magazine anarchist / anarcha-feminist magazine Zero from the late 1970s.
Taken from Anarchy Archives.

Zero magazine issue 1 June 1977
Zero magazine issue 2 August 1977
Zero magazine issue 3 October 1977
The 3rd issue of Zero magazine.
Whilst generally good, this issue is marred by a shamefully positive piece on P.I.E. (Paedophile Information Exchange) which passes without comment in this, or later issues.
This article is included for information and completeness (and as a warning about the sort of shit that was tolerated by the 1970s "counter culture"). It's not endorsed by me or Libcom.

Agreed. It's interesting to see some of the comments about Zero in Black Flag at the time.
Also worth bearing in mind that "Graham Coates" of Zero Collective was recently revealed as a spycop as by the Undercover Policing Inquiry:

Also involved with International Socialists/Socialist Workers Party, Anarchy Collective Libertarian Anarchist Group. Active 1976 - 1979.

Did not know. Though, with a lot of folks supporting, what we called, "action faction" stuff, not surprised if they were infiltrated.
Bumping this because Graham

Would be fascinated if anyone can dig through and find the articles that "GC" apparently wrote for anarchist publishers - it doesn't name the specific publications he wrote for, but from the statement Zero and Anarchy sound most likely, maybe Freedom too?
