As an Activist Campaigning And Protesting Against Injustice Everywhere I'm thrilled to find myself joined by people all over the country and the world in a new movement--the Occupy Movement -- with a common message that we must focus our resources on jobs, health care, education and other vital human needs rather than war and corporate greed. read full story / add a comment

Offered a place on a postgrad course unable to continue due to budget 2012. no job no hope and no independant money to do the masters. Also I have family dependants, so it really feels like a sentence in regards to my future or rather the undermining of career to be financially independent, alas its not going to happen. read full story / add a comment

I stand in full solidarity with the brave participants of Occupy Los Angeles and I support the immediate release of all protesters.
As of this writing, close to 300 people have been held on up to $5000 bail for simply practicing their first amendment rights of assembly and freedom of speech. This is unacceptable. All protestors should be freed. read full story / add a comment

The rate of job destruction has accelerated in the quarter July to September
2011. On a seasonally adjusted basis, employment fell by 20,500 (-1.1%) in
the quarter. This follows on from a seasonally adjusted fall in employment
of 4,100 (-0.2%) in Q2 2011. This means that 20,500 more jobs were destroyed
than were created in the quarter. Minister Bruton's "Job Creation" measures
had already been introduced in June. The continuation of the FF/Green
austerity programme by Lab/FG destroyed far more jobs than were created(if
any) by the Bruton measures. read full story / add a comment

The Spectacle of Hope of Hope and Defiance on December 10th was visually and audibly wonderful but the exclusion of political parties was ultimately in the interests only of the social democrats, who sponsored the event. read full story / add a comment |
