Any Electrician Knows that Lego Bricks are Genderless, Not ?Heteronormative? Tue Feb 11, 2025 20:00 | Will Jones
Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

Why All Parents Should Protest the Children?s Wellbeing and Schools Bill Tue Feb 11, 2025 18:14 | Elizabeth Dulley
Any parent can currently withdraw their child from school if they're unhappy. Labour's Schools Bill ends that right for many, giving local authorities a veto. That's why all parents should protest this state power grab.

How the Other Half Campaigns

international / rights, freedoms and repression Wednesday April 16, 2008 23:33 by liz c

Don't look too closely...

A through the looking glass encounter into how campaigns are run by people with money, political machinery, suits and plush red carpeting. There were very few members of the public but It's well worth going along. The food is great. Posh sandwiches and raspberry chocolates.

I found the whole thing very interesting though many of our representatives ambled off before Angela answered their questions. Maybe they knew the answers already.

It's possible to reserve a seat on www.forumoneurope.ie Manuel Barosso Eu Commissioner is speaking this thurs. At 11am I think.

When Angela Merkel addressed the National Forum on Europe on Mon April 14th every party except Fianna Fail, expressed reservations about the Lisbon Treaty. Interestingly none of the coverage on RTE that I saw showed a single question that she was asked.

antrim / worker & community struggles and protests Saturday April 12, 2008 12:22 by CWI

Union concedes.

The five day hunger strike by three sacked airport shop stewards, Gordon McNeill, Madan Gupta and Chris Bowyer was suspended at 5.30 this afternoon after the workers received a letter from the union solicitors guaranteeing that their demands would be met.

Why Anarchafeminism?

Cover of 'The RAG' #2

Why Anarchafeminism?
A women-only discussion hosted by RAG

RAG, the Revolutionary Anarchafeminist Group is now in its third year. The collective was set up in order to explore our ideas and produce a magazine, the Rag. Meetings are held weekly on Mondays, but the first Monday of every month is an open meeting, in which non-members are invited to a workshop or discussion.

On Monday 7th April, the open meeting was entitled “Why Anarchafeminism?” The purpose of the meeting was to encourage women outside of RAG to question and explore their ideas about feminism and anarchism and to draw links between the two. Also, it gave members of the group a chance to revisit the fundamental aspects of our beliefs. The following is a personal account by two of us of the discussion. It is limited by the quality of our notes and recollections. It does not present a RAG position on anything, but is simply an attempt to share some of the ideas that were touched upon with those who were unable to attend.

Don't ignore the Homeless

For us it is important to discuss homelessness because it is not just something that we pass by on the streets guiltily ignoring people or handing out a few pence depending on our humour.

It is definitely not something we just read about in reports or newspapers - it is a problem that we have or could experience in the future. Everyone in the media talks about the Celtic Tiger but we don’t see it in our areas and we see more people on the streets rather than less and we want to know why.
