The Greens get 6-7 seats (i dunno i've lost interest at this point), Sinn Fein 5, and the Socialist Party 1. This is all common knowledge but what does it really mean. ... read full story / add a comment

In last month's sizzling edition of Big Ones there was something familiar about one of the Reader's True-Life Confessions. Mr TB from Westminster wrote: "It was my party and everyone kept giving me presents, but the biggest treat was more than I bargained for! I hadn't had an election for four years and suddenly this porn star with these big wads came up and offered to give me a good funding, just like that! Well, I was desperate for it I can tell you, I've never had any cheques like it and I didn't feel guilty, even when everyone found out." ... read full story / add a comment

In Madrid, Chiefs of State and government officials of Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean are metting 17-18 of May to celebrate the good progress of their business and their global economy; to compensate the support, the free hand and the sympathy of "leaders" from the other side of the Atlantic; to feast on the profits achieved by the neoliberal policies imposed by the centre upon the periphery: the profits of Telefonica, Deustche Telecom, Repsol, Endesa, BBVA...
