Austria
In Austria, comrades of the Red Front
Collective and Partizan organized events under the title “Down with the
EU” in both Vienna and Innsbruck, mobilizing with dedicated leaflets in
German as well as in Turkish. Also, with attendance of activists from
Turkish and Austrian organizations a series of unannounced
manifestations was held throughout the city of Linz, blocking traffic
and shouting slogans. During this actions a banner with the slogan “Down
with the EU and Imperialism” was carried and print-outs of the campaign
poster were carried. Turkish comrades have uploaded a video of the action: Nieder mit EU! Es Lebe der Internationalismus

Sweden
In Sweden comrades in Stockholm have
produced dedicated stickers calling for the boycott and broadly,
spreading them in order to agitate the masses to deface electoral
propaganda with it. Scores of posters were covered by means of this.
These actions were flanked by the issuing of statements and the drawing
of at least two wall paintings with the slogan “Boycott EU-Elections”.

Forces in Gothenburg rejecting the
election also picked up the question of agitating the masses for
boycott. In a spree of actions, posters were covered with hammer and
sickles in red paint, slogans we spread on the walls banners calling for
boycott were put up.

Comrades in Denmark translated and
disseminated the joint international call for boycott in the form of a
leaflet and on their website. At least two wall paintings with the
slogan “Elections No – People’s War Yes” were painted, one of them
across of a school and close to a train station in a proletarian
neighborhood.

Germany
In Germany, hundreds of posters of the
international campaign were put up in the streets, particularly in the
cities of Hamburg, Weimar and Essen. Bourgeois elections propaganda was
covered en mas, putting a particular focus on distributing them
throughout the proletarian neighborhoods and places that draw attention.

In Bremen, apart from putting up
posters, a the campaign slogan was painted on the facade of a bank and,
as pictures indicate, the putting up of posters was complemented by
massively distributing leaflets in the same neighborhoods. Furthermore,
the reactionary electoral propaganda was turned into billboards for the
people, by using them as surfaces to attach Dazibaos to.

In Berlin reactionary electoral
propaganda was over-painted with slogans. Furthermore, leaflets calling
for the boycott of the elections were distributed in demonstrations take
place in the city, such as the Fridays for future demonstration.
Posters were hung up in areas with a strong presence of “the left
movement”, but mostly were spread throughout the more proletarian
neighborhoods of the city.

Apart from these actions of forces that
took firm decision to support the necessity of boycott from a decided
Marxist-Leninist-Maoist viewpoint, there is, of cause, in every EU
country an enormous amount of undocumented and unclaimed but
nevertheless unconciliatory and belligerent actions of the masses. The
masses and those having the interests of the proletariat and the people
at heart reject these elections. Every cycle of electoral campaigning
the creativity of the masses in trashing, defacing, toppling, cutting
apart, burning and otherwise attacking the bourgeois parties takes new
paths, from the simple “Hitler mustache”, to a hand-drawn slogan or a
well aimed kick, to more sophisticated actions like the documentation of
torching electoral propaganda materials or even four consecutive
attacks on mayor party offices, as was mentioned by the bourgeois press
to supposedly also have taken place during this years electoral farce in
a large German city
