Many people, after J18, noted that capitalism is not just finance capital,
so the City is not always the target. (Personally, I still like the idea
of surrounding Murdoch's 'Fortress Wapping', but no-one seems to have
taken that one up)

As for the pubs - I guess that makes it a 'bring your own booze' event.

P.S. The people talking about MayDay 2000 are talking about a couple of
days of events - this is presumably because of problems like the Bank
Holiday.
