A lot of us had enough money for a bus pass one month, but maybe not the next one. We wanted to do something more than just protest the latest fare hike. We wanted free public transport. Instead of being alone and poor, we want to become united and powerful. In 2001, Planka.nu was founded by the Syndicalist Youth Federation. We have been an independent organisation since 2003. + +The main component of the campaign has been the **P-kassa** (P-fund). It’s a fund where members pay a monthly fee, and the fund pay back any tickets people might receive from controllers together. The fund has a few hundred members, and costs 100 SEK per month. This price has been the same for 18 years! + +The fund has helped Planka to be a long-term organisation, and provided independent financial backing for this like leaflets and action materials. + +While Planka.nu mostly have focused on the ticket prices, it became quickly aware of the fact that the price is a part of politics in general.

Today car traffic is prioritized at the expense of public transportation. Roads are financed by tax money and are free to use, but the public transportation is financed by fares. It is rather strange that the authorities punish those who choose the means of travel that suits the environment best. + +# Freeriding fund + +**United we stand strong!** P-kassan - the fund - is a cooperation between people in similar situations. We do not afford the fare or do not want to pay it. You pay a small amount to the fund and if you get caught freeriding your fine is payed by the fund. The idea of this fund is not new. It has been tried before and for quite some time, especially by students in the university cities, and has worked well even though in a small scale. + +> The difference is that we have a greater goal than just helping each other to freeride.

Free public transportation is a way of taking from the richest and giving to the rest of us. It is about time for that kind of redistribution in our segregated cities. + +And think about the socio-economic gains that could be achieved by getting rid of all the ticket lines, tickets and control systems.

Figure 1. The abortion drone has been used in recent campaigns in Poland (2015) and Ireland (2016). The drone flies abortion pills from one country to women in another country. Using the different legislations and regulations it makes the reality of women in countries where abortion is restricted visible by creating access to the abortion pills.

Figure 2. Abortion Drone was developed by Women on Waves to fly medical abortion pills into countries where pregnancy termination is illegal. The drone is carrying a box of Sunmedabon, containing a combination of Mifepriston and Misoprostol, used in medical abortion.
