That's the issue isn't it. They have this as their aim, but there's nothing controversial in there - you're not going to find many people arguing that they want lots of austerity, more unemployment, lots of high taxes on the poor etc.. But the question is how do we achieve a fairer system? Please can you (the protesters) put together concrete and workable suggestions on what to do for the better rather than just "I don't think austerity measures are fair and I'm going to sit in front of St Paul's until you reverse them"
A future free from austerity, growing inequality, unemployment, tax injustice and a political elite who ignores its citizens

Sooz, the quote that you cite amounts to a mission statement and as such would not be expected to contain much detail of the individual goals of the group or the means and methods to be deployed.
The mission statement of All In London is 'To build the most comprehensive guide to London online' - a most excellent adventure - and a laudable aim!
