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.

offsite link Why Are British Taxpayers Funding so Many Left-Wing Think Tanks? Wed Feb 12, 2025 07:00 | Charlotte Gill
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.

After a meeting in the Parish Hall in Maynooth last Thursday the North Kildare IAWM branch decided on a number of things, including organising a bus to Shannon for March 1st. We have provisionallly booked a bus to leave Maynooth at 10am on Saturday March 1st, to travel down to Shannon for the protest and to return from Shannon leaving at 6pm. Tickets will cost €12 return. Could people who want to book a place please email me at [email protected] as soon as possible to confirm a seat. Cheers. David Lynch PS. We resolved to meet again next Thursday in Maynooth Parish Hall (across the road from Catholic Church) at 8.30pm for a short meeting. ... read full story / add a comment

The Labour Party leader has said that Ahern's support for a second resolution before war against Iraq logically implies that Ahern should therefore state that any unilateral attack on Iraq by the US and its allies would be unjustified, immoral and illegal. So it is Rabbitte's position that if a majority coalition of the bought and the bribed at the U.N. supports the US, then the war is no longer unjustified. This makes morality a matter of how successful the U.S. is in bribing members of the security council. This is a bizarre position for a 'leader' of the Irish working class. ... read full story / add a comment

Anti Bush Administration does not = Anti-American Anti Nice Treaty does not = Anti European Protesters here are deliberately planning days of Anti War Action in co-operation with millions of Europeans and Americans. This Anti-American line will not wash whatever Willie's little Doktors (who themselves are a focus of attention for once in their little backroom lives) tell u. How much are they being paid to come up with these cold-war warrior cliches which no-one is swallowing.

Hi all. Sorry for using the newswire in this fashion but we need a high quality photo of a US warplane in shannon asap. We are printing 20,000 leaflets for the Cork march on the 8th March but the photo that we had was too low a resolution for printing. Apparently we need one of 300psi or higher quality. ... read full story / add a comment
