Counter Information

Counter Information was a revolutionary anarchist news sheet produced by groups in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Leeds from 1984 to 2004.

Counter Information was revolutionary anarchist news sheet established in 1984, in the Scottish capital of Edinburgh, with the intention of covering the 1984–1985 United Kingdom miners' strike.

By the following year, its scope had broadened to coverage of industrial disputes in various different economic sectors, with labour activists providing primary accounts of class conflict in their workplaces.

At the end of the 6 week cycle, collective members met for the layout meeting, which often included last-minute editorial adjustments.
