I am listening to Joe Duffy on RTE radio as I write this. There is caller after caller (of all walks of life) speaking of the government's sickening attitude towards its citizens. In particular there is outrage at the state of the education and health systems and calls for national protests, government dismissals and one caller even suggested some form of uprising! In light of Bertie's Brothers, Minister Noel Ahern, remarks at the weekend (saying the Govt. needs to spin more) the ground is fertile to expose this rotten rotten government and there drastic politics of power, priviledge and corruption. This time their arrogance has gone too far and the ordinary people of Ireland need an outlet for their demands and voices. Let's do it now and not wait to become another privitised America. ... read full story / add a comment

Although this was the first time that protesters failed to gain access to the walk, a spirited sit-down protest at the gates to the golf links ensured that ‘business at usual’ did not happen. The next protest date has been set for Sunday, June 29th. ... read full story / add a comment

At time of writing it remains unclear whether a deal will be cobbled together in the North. No doubt the sight of George Bush taking time off from the bombing of Iraq to support the GFA flattered the national ego, allowing us to maintain the fantasy that the Troubles are a matter of earth-shaking importance. In a week when a thousand Congolese villagers were massacred, this was a debatable point. Anyway, we have to wonder why the peace train has been delayed yet again. Unionists and their hangers-on have an easy answer: Castlereagh, Colombia, and the Northern Ireland Office. ... read full story / add a comment

As the arm-chair crusaders of the conservative media celebrate another triumph, it’s important for those of us who opposed the war to form our own perspective. First of all, anyone who cares about democracy and human rights should be delighted to see the people of Iraq tearing down statues of Saddam Hussein and desecrating his palaces. After a quarter-century of brutal tyranny, they’ve earned the right to celebrate, and it’s not surprising to see many people greet American and British soldiers as liberators (after all, the people of Czechoslovakia greeted the Red Army with open arms in 1945 - it recieved a frostier reception in 1968). ... read full story / add a comment
