More than 10,000 marched in the Swedish city of Malmoe on Saturday in a demonstration against the excesses of globalisation, organised as part of the European Social Forum being held there.
The marchers, many carrying banners, set off from the suburb of Rosengaard at 2:00 pm (1300 GMT) accompanied by several marching bands, in what was one of the biggest organised in Sweden.

"We are all here because we have a common message," Thor Rutgersson, a 25-year-old teacher told AFP.

"We want better conditions for workers, for students and more cooperation to fight poverty in Europe," he added.

The march included delegations from all over Europe, including trade unionists and students.

"It is important that the countries from eastern Europe are here today," said Piotr Ostrowsky of the Polish confederation of trade unions, the OPZZ.

Saturday's march extended 7.5 kilometres (nearly five miles) and finished in the city centre without incident. A large police presence had been on stand-by on the fringes of the route.

On Friday, about 100 people threw rocks at police and broke windows in the city centre at the tail end of a demonstration organised by a group called Reclaim the Streets, which had attracted some 700 participants.

The fifth European Social Forum began Thursday and wraps up on Sunday.

Those are Marxist protesters, marching for global welfare - notice the red banners. The Ron Paul revolution has nothing in common with them unfortunately.

"We want better conditions for workers, for students and more cooperation to fight poverty in Europe," he added.

Yeah, they're socialists, dude.

When I first saw this article on drudge earlier, my first thought was to post it here after seeing the title about "Marching against globalism..." then I read the article in disappointment.

I'm a bit baffled why its being posted here...ahh world of confusion... ;/

Yeah, they are protesting against free trade, free capital movement etc. They want "social standards" all around the world. They say they want them so the "poor people" in the "third world"get a better life, but in reality it's just plain old protectionism.

Forget the third world.

That's probably the US equivalent of people protesting that we're not at war with Iran yet. bones

I do feel slightly embarrassed by this. It's really sad that socialism is pretty entrenched here. Even our right wing (liberals) are starting to move towards the center.

Yep, Reinfeldt has publicly stated he values the "Swedish model", this country's brand of socialism. It's quite amazing that a party that was originally conservative does that.

Oops, sorry, I was in a hurry when I posted it... forgive me...

I was also going to say it sounds like some socialist revolution....quite the opposite of ours.

But its already been said.
