On Monday 12th November the World Bank met in the Grand Hotel Malahide. As happens all across the globe wherever the World Bank meet activists came together to send the message that the Bank is horrific, directly responsible for death and devastation, and we reject the World Bank as an institution with no legitimacy. Break the World Bank! ... read full story / add a comment

Article 26 of the Declaration of Human Rights states that everyone has the right to education yet since 1979, the government of the Islamic Republic of Iran has systematically sought to deprive its largest religious minority, the Bahá'í Faith, of the right to a full education. The situation in Iran represents perhaps the only case where the right to education is being intentionally denied to an entire group of people. This denial of education is based entirely on religious discrimination. ... read full story / add a comment

This morning the DOHC [Department of Health and Children] press released on the OECD report on Healthcare. The report is set in a time period that ends at 2005. The DOHC decided not to add the link onto their website so I am publishing it here. Apparently we are doing quite well on Health, a bit of critical underspend and the necessity for the department to juggle the figures. Of course the 2007 Breast Cancer Crisis is not mentioned on this file,but directly under the link there can be found the statement by Ms Harney on the issue (dated last week- the scandal broke on the 4th of September). ... read full story / add a comment

Caring for a relative can be a stressful and traumatic experience. The Government should do its best to help. I am upset at how many people are left caring for others and are given no support due to a means test. Anyone who cares deserves the backup of a Carer's allowance. How many of these allowances could be paid out of Bertie Ahern's self granted pay rise? Who deserves the money more? Bertie Ahern? or the carers in Westport? ... read full story / add a comment

Whilst we have come to expect little else for corporations like Royal Dutch Shell, yesterdays fines imposed on rogue traders trying to fix the price of natural gas clearly show that such companies are rotten to the core, solely driven by profits and greed and have little or no interest in social respondsibility. These guys run cartels daily that effects all of us. ... read full story / add a comment

Today, to commemorate Shell's judicial murder of the Ogonii 9 and a look back in anger at the Garda baton-fest a year ago, some 400 activists journeyed from all reaches of Ireland to voice our outrage outside and inside Shell's Bellanaboy site, I was with the section of protestors that first manned the front line at Bellanaboy bridge at 6AM at the request of S2S when it was rightly surmised that Shell and the Guards would attempt to steal a march by bringing the workers in early - for a while, before Garda weight of numbers prevailed, we were effective in blockading and preventing them from earning their 30 pieces of Mammon silver inside. ... read full story / add a comment

Well apparently they were serious when Bush Jr. stated "that if you're not for us, you're against us". Implying if you don't support the U.S./U.K. war machine shredding lives in the Middle East & Afghanistan, you must be with the Jihadists and their pathetic mimicry of car, backpack and body bomb responses to the B52's, F 16's and cruise missiles. These guys obviously have not heard of the old anarcho saying "If they give you two options - always choose the third!" I was departing Ireland after a week of visiting friends and attending the "Route Irish" launch. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/84775 I bought a copy of The Guardian at Dublin airport. I'm usually a daily communicant of the Guardian when living in Ireland or England, because we have such pathetic newspapers in Australia.
