guestposter - 11:58 Mon Feb 03, 2025 A new poll this weekend from the Sunday Independent/Ireland Thinks and (as noted in comments by Paul Culloty) it certainly didn’t suggest any growth in support for the government parties on foot of the shambles that was the last week or so around speaking rights in the Dáil. The figures: FF 24% (-) SF 22% […]
WorldbyStorm - 06:41 Mon Feb 03, 2025 Many thanks to the person who forwarded this to the Archive. To go to the Left Archive please click here. This pamphlet is the first document we have from the Irish Anarchist Network. As noted in the Archive the ‘The Irish Anarchist Network is a network of anarchists founded in 2022’. For more information on […]
WorldbyStorm - 12:11 Sun Feb 02, 2025 This looks great, an exhibition held last year of “a show, titled The Last Cage Down, which has opened at the Mining Art Gallery in Bishop Auckland, County Durham, and coincides with the 40th anniversary of the miners? strike”. The Auckland Project Mining Art Gallery is fascinating.
guestposter - 10:28 Sun Feb 02, 2025 All examples welcome in comments. Hoping for a calm and measured discussion on civil servants and blended working? Hope again after reading this in the Sunday Independent. Currently, civil servants are required to spend at least one day a week in the office. On the other four days, they can work from home.The Government wanted […]
WorldbyStorm - 11:14 Sat Feb 01, 2025 Here’s an example of the hollowing out of cities. A West End cinema beloved by the directors behind the movies Pulp Fiction and Boogie Nights has launched a campaign to save it from closure. A petition supporting the Prince Charles Cinema was launched after the management said it believed its future was under threat, due […]
WorldbyStorm - 09:18 Sat Feb 01, 2025 Big fan of artist Chris Foss since I was seven or eight years old (as may be guessed, having mentioned him here, and here and here and here and here). His artwork for Asimov’s and other science fiction book covers was a revelation, something that pushed science fiction art into a different space, as it […]
WorldbyStorm - 06:10 Sat Feb 01, 2025 Mentioned in albums I really liked this last year, here?s a French group from Rouen playing, I guess, something that?s a mix of alternative rock, garage rock, punk, post-punk and even jangle pop. Formerly a four piece, now a trio – bass, guitar and drums with mainly female vocals. Chamber Songs is there, I think, […]
WorldbyStorm - 10:46 Fri Jan 31, 2025 Five years since the UK ‘formally left the European Union’ as RTÉ reports. And the only member to do so as it adds. Exquisite diplomatic tact in the following: Anand Menon, director of the think-tank UK in a Changing Europe, explains that Brexit was never going to be a one off event and would always […]
guestposter - 10:33 Fri Jan 31, 2025 Interesting how hard hitting the Independent editorial is on the issue: There was never any reason to expect the opposition would yield on allowing an incursion on their patch or an encroachment on their time. To have thought otherwise would have been delusional. Leaders? Question terrain was out of bounds for Paul Murphy of People […]
guestposter - 09:38 Fri Jan 31, 2025 Sometimes it is difficult to quite recall just how unpopular Donal Trump was at the end of his presidential term. I’m sure he doesn’t remember. But then we have a display like yesterday’s Trump press conference ? after an American Airlines plane with 60 passengers and four crew on board collided in midair with an Army […] |
