The video footage is of the black bloc trying to force their way through gardai lines. As you see it is quite 'fluffy' and looks a bit like a friendly 'mosh'. It was shot with my arm over the shoulder of a garda which is why it sometimes looks almost as if the camera is behind police lines. ... read full story / add a comment

The Campaign Against the Racist Referendum (C.A.R.R.), have produced over 300,000 leaflets calling for a NO vote in the forthcoming referendum on citizenship.

Over the past few weeks these leaflets have been handed out at bus and railway stations etc. and there are a number of regular weekly handouts, mostly in Dublin. We need more volunteers to get involved in this vital campiagn - especially in cities and counties outside Dublin.
If you are opposed to this racist referendum and want to see it beaten and confined to the bin, contact the campaign and take some leaflets for you and your friends to deliver in your area etc.
This racist referendum can be beaten -like the Nice Treaty - but it will take a massive effort from people all over the country if this is to happen, get involved now!
There are also a number of raffle tickets left for this Saturday's 15th May, cash draw. [ title changed from all caps. Please don't do this. Thanks - Ed] ... read full story / add a comment

" Harris said he saw the men throw something from the truck while they were being pursued. Officers scouring the area later found a vial containing an unknown substance along the roadway, he said. Once the men were apprehended, officers also found a "Learn to Fly" brochure in the truck, leading Harris and others to express concern about security at the Nuclear Fuel Services plant in Erwin." I got a sick feeling when I saw it, he said." ... read full story / add a comment

Here's some more photos from our weekly stall raising funds and awareness for Mary Kelly's retrial.
We've been getting a great response from people on the streets of Galway. With her re-trial set for June 15th, it's even more crucial now that people get behind this case.

This woman was brave enough to put her freedom on the line in order to challenge Shannon's usage by an aggressive foreign military presence. Now the people of Ireland should be out supporting her.
So write to the papers, phone up the radio, print leaflets off the webpage and hand them out, donate/raise funds...whatever you can think of. This case will have reprecussions for us all.
