The Anti Racism Rally The Irish Congress of Trade Unions has now officially endorsed the lunchtime rally at Belfast city hall to be held @ 1pm Jan 27th. They will be contacting all their affiliates asking them to support it. Also the Belfast Lord Mayor has also endorsed the rally and has confirmed that he can also speak at it. We are starting to get similar feed back from other organisations. The rally is being called as a visual and collective stand against the continued brutal attacks on the minority ethnic community. Arson attacks on homes, attacks on heavily pregnant women and yet more attacks on children and on men. It is time that the collective voice of working class communities with the trade union movement and the minority ethnic organisations came together in a united stand. With that - we urge all to spread the word and to attend this rally. read full story / add a comment

Pointing out that, after narcotics and arms, the trade in wild animals is the most valuable illegal trade, Dublin Labour MEP Proinsias De Rossa this afternoon urged the European Commission to take a range of integrated actions to halt the hunting and trading of wildlife meat for human consumption, also known as ‘bushmeat’. Mr. De Rossa said that both EU and national development aid policies must be ‘conservation audited’ to ensure that they supported the efforts of local governments to eliminate the hunting and trading of wild animals, while also assisting local communities to obtain other affordable sources of protein. Mr. De Rossa has authored a report on the trade in bushmeat passed in the European Parliament today. read full story / add a comment
