May Day greetings from the Anarchist Communist Group!
Neston Makhno

The first of May is the symbol of a new era in the life and struggle of the toilers, an era that each year offers the toilers fresh, increasingly tough and decisive battles against the bourgeoisie, for the freedom and independence wrested from them, for their social ideal

Cheers, may day greetings to everyone, but especially the maccy d strikers in the UK and the rent strikers in Canada, and anyone else I've forgotten who's marking the day in proper style.

W.S.A. May Day Statement

May Day has its origin in the ancient pagan commemoration of the start of spring, the season in which we reap the bounty of the Earth through cultivation of the soil, and rejoice in fertility and the beauty of life born anew after winters onerous cold.

Today on International Worker's Day we circle the streets in lieu of the Maypole, celebrating the martyrs of Haymarket Square and all that have fallen and sacrificed their freedom to create a society based on free, non-hierarchical structures. Today we struggle to hasten the end of a system that is wreaking havoc upon our planet, and in the ruthless pursuit of profit is depriving us of our sacred birthright as human beings to manage the fruits of the commons in a just and sustainable way.

UK May Day demo's and events, mostly not these days actually on the 1st of May, are nothing to write home about but the class struggle goes on, if still on a relatively small scale and with a few 'victories' along the way. There is around-up of some of these here:
