The international campaign to boycott Coca-Cola scored a first victory in Ireland with the recent succesful passing of a referendum on University College Dublin's Belfield campus to ban the drink from Student Union outlets. The campaign aimed to pressure Coca-Cola into addressing the murder of union activists in its Colombian bottling plants. But now an attempt to repeal the result of the UCD referendum has led to a re-run of the referendum being planned for November 18th (evening) and 19th (all-day). Apparently as a result of the negative publicity around this issue the Coke Company will dispatch a heavy-hitter to Ireland from their head office to try and stop the campaign in its tracks. read full story / add a comment

Seems that the UCD Boycott of Coke Products is turning a few heads in the boardrooms of the Multinational. IMC IRL will tomorrow be publishing an in-depth feature about these 'urban legends.
The below is a cut and paste from unison.ie
Perhaps some UCD heads should consider contacting SIPTU and arranging to meet the same high-ups as Mr Quiros. read full story / add a comment

You would think, with all the work that he has done with unions and for people with disabilities etc. that this TD would be in favour of a measure designed to protect the health of workers - whether they work in bars or otherwise. But yet we see him standing up in the Dail to speak against the tobacco regulations. Not only this, but he also tried to claim that most cancer deaths were caused by other factors! Now it is true that the Government are using this issue as a distraction from the mess they are making of the health service - and also that anti-cancer measures need a lot of work - but seeing him try and belittle the cancer-causing properties of tobacco smoke is disgusting; it reads like a script written by the tobacco industry. read full story / add a comment

Newly discovered material from communist Poland archives gives an insight into how authorities seek to undermine opposition groups by exploiting differences between radicals and moderates. This can involve government support for (ousted) moderates. read full story / add a comment

Despite the shocking history of East Timor and the unncessary massacres that the world's powers facilitated and watched, it's all happening again. Indonesia has brought over 11,000 troops to West Papua (its colony since 1969) in recent months and intimidation, torture and massacres are becoming increasingly common. The official Irish government stance is to respect the sovereignty of Indonesia and hope that dialogue between Indonesia and Papuan 'separatists' can resolve the inevitable turmoil. Ridiculous! read full story / add a comment

On Tuesday 4 November 2003, the United Nations voted for the twelfth consecutive time to oppose the US economic, commercial and financial blockade of Cuba. This year a record 179 countries (including Ireland and Britain) voted against the blockade, with only the US, Israel and the Marshall Islands supporting its continuation. The illegal, unjust and immoral blockade of Cuba by the US continues to create huge shortages and hardship for the Cuban people and must be lifted. Given increased threats from the US, including the real possibility of military invasion, a recent tightening of the blockade by George W. Bush (despite Congressional opposition) and increased hostility towards Cuba by the EU, international support for the Cuban Revolution and the country's right to national self-determination free from US interference has never been greater. The US government must be made to listen and act on the democratic and moral will of the United Nations. read full story / add a comment
