offsite link Call Bearded Trans Colleagues Women, NHS Staff Told Thu Mar 06, 2025 19:38 | Will Jones
NHS staff have been ordered to treat trans colleagues with beards as women and use female pronouns in training materials that also claim gender-neutral toilets promote "equality".

Scotland's last oil refinery is to close with the loss of more than 400 jobs despite assurances from Keir Starmer and Ed Miliband, giving the lie to claims about Net Zero jobs and a "just transition".

After years of watching the Tories fight a losing battle with the Blairite Blob, Keir Starmer becomes a victim of it as well as he finds himself powerless to stop the Sentencing Council create a two-tier justice system.

offsite link The Cheap Talk of Emmanuel Macron Thu Mar 06, 2025 12:37 | Noah Carl
Macron claims that Russia is an ?existential threat? to Europe. Yet his actions belie this. France has given Ukraine 12 times less aid than Denmark. And it's still importing billions of euros of Russian energy.

Around 800-1000 people converged on Dublin's city centre to participate in a 'street party' and to help us 'imagine what a city without cars could be like'. From the well-publicised meeting point at the GPO, the crowd moved to Burgh Quay where a barrier had been placed across the road. The fire brigade were brought out to break the barrier but it was there just long enough for the party to begin. A motley crew of actors, acrobats, performers, musicians, dancers, body painters, and children succeeded in creating a community space where normally there are cars and trucks belching out pollution. ... read full story / add a comment

Reclaim the Streets is a non-hierarchical, leaderless, openly organised, public group. No individual "plans" or "masterminds" its actions and events. RTS activities are the result of voluntary, unpaid, co-operative efforts from numerous self-directed people attempting to work equally together. ... read full story / add a comment

A Street Party is in full swing. 1000 people have reclaimed a major road and declared it a "street now open". Music, laughter and song have replaced the roar of engines. Road rage becomes road rave, as tarmac grey is smothered by the living colour of a festival. Single issue? Against the car? Global capitalism? For all of the mainstream media's attempt to put it in a box, for those involved it expresses much more... ... read full story / add a comment

I called 666 6666 and asked for the number of the Garda Complaints office. I was given 8728 666. "That's eight seven two eight, six six six", I mused. "No, triple six!" The garda replied. "Okay, six six six, the number of the beast, thank you!" Click! No response from the beasts at the GCO, so I called Directory Enquiries who gace me 666 9863. Is there a pattern developing with their numbers? Hmmmmm.... Criminal Investigations Office: 666 3344 Who is policing the gardaí? And who is the thug with the baton spotted throwing his (considerable) weight around on RTÉ and TV3 this evening (also on photos at this site)? The one without a number?

As a regular party-goer, I couldn't wait to reclaim the streets, though I was surprised that there was no real political agenda behind it - at least that was the opinion of the average, run-of-the-mill person who turned up. I enjoyed the dancing, and the different types of music, and the costumes and colour. And when the time came to move along, I went with the crowd - after all, it was just a good laugh, and the Gardai seemed pretty mellow about it all. Here I document the unexpected and unjustified police brutality suffered by the partygoers at the hands of Ireland's police force. ... read full story / add a comment
