We cannot lie down and just accept this attack on education. Fees of E4,000 and more will mean thousands of student dropping out of college, poverty conditions for those who remain, and hundreds of thousands of ordinary young people being denied access to college. As the government is now firmly set on the re-introduction of fees, we have to be firmly set on opposing them - we have to be willing and able to take serious mass action against fees. ... read full story / add a comment

IFI Workers are protesting at the manner in which they have been treated since the decision by the Irish Government and ICI - which holds a 49 per cent stake in IFI – to liquidate the company. The 620 workers from the 3 Irish plants received: · less than a single day’s notice of termination of their employment; · no statutory redundancy payments · no regulatory RP1s (Redundancy Payments forms) which are necessary in order to receive statutory redundancy payments. · no assurances that their pension fund would be able to meet its liability because of the drop in investment returns. A high percentage of workers have served in the company for over 20 years. The workers want guarantees that all statutory entitlements due to them will be funded by the shareholders. They also want an agreed severance package and any shortfall in pension entitlements to be funded by the shareholders ... read full story / add a comment

Here is the New York Times' description of Faiz Muhammad, one of the just-released Afghan men that a reporter visited on October 27: Babbling at times like a child, the partially deaf, shriveled old man was unable to answer simple questions. He struggled to complete sentences and strained to hear words that were shouted at him. His faded mind kept failing him. Muhammad told journalists that he was 105 but he appeared to be in his late seventies. His advanced age, and obvious senility, vividly belied the "enemy combatant" label. A second released detainee, who walked with the aid of a cane and was also thought to be in his late seventies, was equally unmartial in appearance and demeanor. ... read full story / add a comment
