Last Saturday afternoon (14/8/04), up to 15 gardai descended on a lone Traveller family, whose trailer was parked just off the South Link Road in Cork City. When the gardai threatened to have the trailer towed away, the mother locked herself into it to prevent it being moved. The gardai broke off the perspex window at the back of the trailer in an attempt to enter it. At this stage, the woman, who is receiving medical attention for depression, took a bread knife and attempted to cut her wrists. Fortunately, the knife was quite blunt and did little damage ... read full story / add a comment

A multi-agency task force shut down a NYC Indymedia video team benefit late Saturday night, sparking complaints that the action was politically motivated. "I don't think every single department showing up here was a coincidence," said Brandon Jourdan, a video team organizer. "But maybe it was or maybe it was not. People will have to decide for themselves."

The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development has thirty members, mostly concentrated in Europe and North America but also including such countries as Mexico and South Korea. Its stated aim is to promote convergence in policy development between its members. Like most international institutions, it is firmly committed to the neoliberal orthodoxy which dominates thinking on economic policy. Minister Dempsey has clearly asked the OECD to produce this report because he expects the report to confirm his own pre-conceived views on the subject. Over the next few months, we will be told again and again that the OECD report is impartial and objective, so it is important to remember from the start: the OECD is not impartial, it has an ideological agenda just like all the other players in this debate, and its policy recommendations are determined by this ideological bias. ... read full story / add a comment
