I suppose the only surprise was that those two nice middle-class ladies from Dublin (aka the IRA's spokespersons in Strasbourg) didn't wait until they took their seats before they started Israel-baiting. Mary Lou McDonald was only behaving according to type but you might have hoped the (Occupied?) Six Counties rep would have had just a flicker of conscience before releasing a statement attacking Israel's "apartheid wall". ... read full story / add a comment

Feeling sad and slimy in your shiny runner shoes? Man I feel your pain you got the corporate logo blues............ Made in an airy family run warehouse in Portugal, fully unionised, providing free medical care, paid annual leave, and a decent wage. Guaranteed worker, earth, and animal friendly. Summer 2004 sees the launch of the ethical sneaker 100% prime guilt free tofu fillet urban footwear.... Adbusters have launched their "Blackspot Sneaker" modelled on the converse original a la Joey Ramone with the demise of Nike foremost in mind! The rethink the cool anti swosh campaign seeks to do as much damage as possibly to the already ailing public image of Phil Knights sordid and stinking multinational empire of shame and revolutionise capitalism. When the day comes we can step out and over the rotting corpse of corporate control in grassroots style! Check out the link below for info.......... ... read full story / add a comment

Ever get the feeling you’ve spoken too soon… Only yesterday morning whilst posting a congratulatory comment on the newswire item on Dublin Food Not Bombs I mentioned that Belfast FNB have been untroubled by the authorities since our incident a month back when one person was assaulted by PSNI.

A group has been formed to force the Irish State and the Catholic church to accept responsibility for the enslavement of 40,000 Irish women during the last century. The women were incarcerated and forced to work as slaves in the infamous Magdalene laundaries. They were physically and psychologically abused. Many died in mysterious circumstances. Some may have been murdered. They are buried in unmarked graves. This atrocity was committed by the Catholic Church aided and abetted by the Irish state. Before reparations can be made it is necessary that these two institutions be made acknowledge the enormity of the crime committed against these women. Unless the isssue of slavery in Ireland is acknowledged by the perpetrators and reparations made to the victims Irish concern about human rights abuses elsewhere cannot be taken seriously. The group is called Justice for Magdalenes and is led by Claire McGettrick. ... read full story / add a comment

The proposed incinerator site at Ringaskiddy iscrossed by a right of way. Local people have been walking this to reclaim the land. Indaver, the company who want to build this monster have a highly dubious claim on the land. At the time of the oral hearing last year they were not even in possession of the deeds. Next friday members of Cork Harbour for a Safe Environment (CHASE) will travel to Dublin to the High Court to find out if their case can go ahead> This is a national issue. If we can stop this incinerator we can stop all the incinerators proposed for Ireland. Please come and support us , Thanks ... read full story / add a comment
