offsite link European Gas Prices Are Rising Again Wed Feb 12, 2025 09:00 | Noah Carl
European gas prices recently went above ?58 per megawatt hour ? the equivalent of $100 per barrel of oil. This is "absolutely destructive for energy-intensive manufacturing", in the words of one industry analyst.

Millions of pounds of taxpayers' money end up in the coffers of Left-wing think tanks each year, says Charlotte Gill. Isn't it about time we turned the tables and asked: "Who funds you?!"

Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

offsite link Why All Parents Should Protest Against the Children?s Wellbeing and Schools Bill Tue Feb 11, 2025 18:14 | Elizabeth Dulley
Any parent can currently withdraw their child from school if they're unhappy. Labour's Schools Bill ends that right for many, giving local authorities a veto. That's why all parents should protest against this state power grab.

American capitalist and extreme right-winger, William Flynn, has issued a call for the IRA to complete its surrender. Flynn with his largesse and influence played a key role in initiating the surrender process. Blair and Aherne are eager to get a deal done so that British troops can be freed up for Anglo-American Imperial adventures. The Sinn Fein leadership is playing a key role in this pacification process. So all they can do is have a Sinn Fein T.D. issue a weak statement calling on Aherne to issue a statement. Aherne, by allowing Shannon to be used by the American war machine, is complicit in the impending mass murder of 1,000s of Iraqi civilians. Do ye really think a candle-lit vigil will stop Aherne aiding and abetting mass murder? ... read full story / add a comment

Dear Friends as one of the original signatories to the irish Writers Against War letter to the Irish Times, I felt it was important to state what my views are vis-a-vis non violent direct action against the war. I completely support the tearing down of fences, and the decommissioning of aircraft carrying American troops. Hopefully my little poem will explain why. I'll be at Shannon tomorrow. Hope to see you all there. Cheers Rab Swannock Fulton ... read full story / add a comment

IRISH FREEDOM COMMITTEE - REPORT FROM MAGHABERRY Wednesday February 25, 2003 ---------------------- The situation at Maghaberry Prison is now as bad or worse than conditions were at Long Kesh before the hunger strikes of the 1980's. In addition, the prison is trying every method it can to break the prisoners' connection with their families through the fostering of a hostile and threatening visiting environment. Families with fathers or sons or husbands or brothers at Maghaberry must now bear the dual burden of enduring daily fears for the safety of their loved ones in prison; and the criminalization of their children and families as they are terrorized on visits to the prison. ... read full story / add a comment

What is direct action? Direct action, to use Rudolf Rocker's words, is "every method of immediate warfare by the workers [or other sections of society] against their economic and political oppressors. Among these the outstanding are: the strike, in all its graduations from the simple wage struggle to the general strike; the boycott; sabotage in all its countless forms; [occupations and sit-down strikes;] anti-militarist propaganda, and in particularly critical cases,... armed resistance of the people for the protection of life and liberty."
