What's really going on in the city is not what you'll read in the papers. A good sized march of over 500 people took place last night. People assembled in Cabra outside the Bingo hall and marched down the New Cabra Road towards Mountjoy prison where there is still ten brave anti-bin tax protesters incarcerated there. The march was a noisy affair and was massively supported by the passing motorists, truck drivers and bus drivers as they passed us by in the other lane. At the Prison there were a number of brief speeches from members of the Cabra Committee against the bin tax. There were cheers of support and solidarity from the crowd to the prisoners inside. There is a major meeting planned for St. Finbarrs GAA club in Cabra on Tuesday night and all are encouraged to attend in the area. ... read full story / add a comment

No country in the developed world should be better able understand the life and death livelihood struggle that rages for a million tenant farmers in the south of Pakistan more effortlessly than Ireland. However, Ireland in fact appears to be complicit in directly undermining their struggle, through its support of the corporate agenda being aggressively pushed by the European Commission in ongoing negotiations on the liberalisation of trade in services. At this weekend’s Irish Social Forum (Oct 17-19), the possibility of responding to our governments’ complicity with a peoples’ solidarity will be explored by a speaker representing the struggles of these communities. ... read full story / add a comment

It is clear from comments made by Martin Cullen yesterday at the launch of his latest campaign to tackle waste that privitisation and incineration are firmly on the Governments agenda. However the amount of waste we produce is clearly at an unacceptably high level. If the people of Ireland do not take more responsibility for our waste by reducing, reusing and recycling we will all lose out in the longer term. ... read full story / add a comment |
