Paris Workers Revolution and Thiers Reactionary Massacres

Paris Workers’ Revolution and Thiers’ Reactionary Massacres Armed Paris was the only serious obstacle in the way of the counterrevolutionary conspiracy. Paris was, therefore, to be disarmed. On this point the Bordeaux Assembly was sincerity itself. If the roaring rant of its Rurals had not been audible enough, the surrender of Paris by Thiers to the tender mercies of the triumvirate of Vinoy the Decembriseur, Valentin the Bonapartist gendarme, and Aurelle de Paladines the Jesuit general, would have cut off even the last subterfuge of doubt. But while insultingly exhibiting the true purpose of the disarmament of Paris, the conspirators asked her to lay down her arms on a pretext which was the most glaring, the most barefaced of lies. The artillery of the Paris National Guard, said Thiers, belonged to the State, and to the State it must be returned.

Kevin McKenna: New pro-indy party may not be a bad thing for Yes movement

NEW Scottish independence parties seem to be appearing as regularly as Scottish Labour leaders. We already have Independence for Scotland, Action for Independence and the Scottish Socialist Party.
