Taking a closer look at brit neo nazi groups organising over here in the north of ireland, behind them, we find people like englishman and ex RIR soldier Mark Pilling who latched himself onto the UDA(like a parasite on a host) to try and peddle his intolerant puerile nazi filth about race hate against ulsters ethnic minorities and republicans. ... read full story / add a comment

A number of Campaign for Free Education activists took part in an actions today with the Union of Students Ireland around Dublin. The CFE has been one of the most formidable opponents of fees and cutbacks in education since the summer.

I am listening to Joe Duffy on RTE radio as I write this. There is caller after caller (of all walks of life) speaking of the government's sickening attitude towards its citizens. In particular there is outrage at the state of the education and health systems and calls for national protests, government dismissals and one caller even suggested some form of uprising! In light of Bertie's Brothers, Minister Noel Ahern, remarks at the weekend (saying the Govt. needs to spin more) the ground is fertile to expose this rotten rotten government and there drastic politics of power, priviledge and corruption. This time their arrogance has gone too far and the ordinary people of Ireland need an outlet for their demands and voices. Let's do it now and not wait to become another privitised America. ... read full story / add a comment

At time of writing it remains unclear whether a deal will be cobbled together in the North. No doubt the sight of George Bush taking time off from the bombing of Iraq to support the GFA flattered the national ego, allowing us to maintain the fantasy that the Troubles are a matter of earth-shaking importance. In a week when a thousand Congolese villagers were massacred, this was a debatable point. Anyway, we have to wonder why the peace train has been delayed yet again. Unionists and their hangers-on have an easy answer: Castlereagh, Colombia, and the Northern Ireland Office. ... read full story / add a comment
