In a pathetic attempt to acquire some precious figs of credibility, the September 2008 edition contains:<\/p>\n<ul>* A day-by-day account of the actions at the Climate and Anti-Racism Camps in Hamburg.<br \/>\n* \u2018Feral anarchists\u2019 respond to claims that they are responsible for the cancellation of the Adelaide War Fair.<br \/>\n* FYI, a report on the release of the police files about the APEC excluded persons list through an F.O.I. request.<br \/>\n* The Student Housing Action Cooperative in Melbourne <a href=\"http:\/\/slackbastard.anarchobase.com\/?p=1309\">squat a building<\/a> as part of a campaign towards accessible housing for all.<br \/>\n* News from Melbourne, Aotearoa, Peru, USA and Greece.<br \/>\n* Review of &#8216;Boundary Songs&#8217;, an audio walk around Redfern, by Duncan Speakman.<\/ul>\n<p>The publication of this new tract considerably ups the ante for local, Melbourne anarchists. Their best efforts to date were documented by the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.walkleys.com\/\">Walkley Award<\/a>-winning Investigative Unit at the <em>Sunday Herald Sun<\/em>, spearheaded by veteran gumshoe Chris Tinkler (<a href=\"http:\/\/slackbastard.anarchobase.com\/?p=631\">\u2018Out of control\u2019<\/a>, March 18, 2007):<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>DRUG use and under-age drinking have been exposed at a wild \u201call-ages\u201d benefit gig for rioters charged over Melbourne\u2019s G20 protests.
