Paradoxically the music of Beethoven seemed more youthful in last night's concert than the music of Górecki - a contemporary composer born in 1933. However the program which presented an interesting contrasted juxtaposition was a triumph for conductor, orchestra and soloist who, all, appeared to me to be young and energetic with admirable team spirit and exemplary seriousness of purpose. ... read full story / add a comment

The topic itself was titled 'A Hidden History of Social Centre’s In Ireland' (http://www.indymedia.ie/article/87044) and of course the North West once again seemed to have slipped peoples minds, apologies Darren. ... read full story / add a comment

Such a broad power would include activists charged with public order offences (obstruction, refusing to move on, placarding), permitting access to the time, number and duration of phone calls and lists of websites visited and IP addresses of data packets sent. ... read full story / add a comment
