Despite being one of the most important northern elections for some time, the absence of real discussion on Indymedia about the forthcoming Assembly elections has been quite amazing. Has there been any feature pieces on the election during the last number of weeks? Appart from a couple of SF, SP and SEA postings has there been any substantial discussion or debate? Would a southern election equally fail to generate much coverage? Is there a partitionist mindset among regular Indymedia contributors?

In order to provoke a debate about the elections, likley outcomes and consequences for the peace process I have posted an interesting article by BBC correspondent Mark Davenport. While his views are often way off the mark, this piece has much merit.

They love 'Freedom' in Miami - they 'really' do . .
Here are some reports from the streets there. Much more at the related 'ftaaimc' link. Makes a mockery of Bush's statement about the protests in the UK during his visit - 'Isn't freedom wonderful'. And the Black Bloc . . . what can you say? . . . It's gone beyond a joke . . . at this rate even the Irish police will cop on to this tactic sooner or later read full story / add a comment

Over 100 people gathered outside the US Embassy in solidarity with the huge number of protesters marching against the Bu$h visit. It was a noisy protest calling for the immediate withdrawal of US/UK troops from Iraq and Afghanistan and for an end to the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories. Demands for an end to the use of Shannon as a US military base were made by all speakers. Richard Boyd Barrett, Chair of IAWM, reminded us that the small protests at he same spot during the invasion of Afghanistan grew rapidly, leading to the massive protests on 15 February last. We can do the same again as 20 March has been declared as a 'A Day of Action Against All Occupations'. read full story / add a comment

On Wed 19th a number of activists staged a protest outside Belfast City Hall in the early afternoon. The atmosphere was lighthearted even if the message was not. Resplendent in freshly prepared t-shirts a number of the group performed a series of carefully choreographed manuevres in order to spell out simple but clear messages of abhorence for the Bush visit and the policies of his administration in general. read full story / add a comment

While in ireland most people are seeing pictures of London and hearing of the anti-Bush protests there, the ongoing reduction in free speech in the US means that even on that side of the Atlantic they aren't hearing about the thousands protesting in Miami. read full story / add a comment
