The Spanish state over recent months has intensified its campaign against Basque solidarity with the political prisoners but seems to have succeeded only in raising the profile of the prisoners and in further alienating Basques from the Spanish state. The campaign against the solidarity movement has combined judicial decrees, governmental action and police baton charges with the firing of rubber bullets while silence or misrepresentation has been the response of much of the media. read full story / add a comment

Sinn Féin has been canvassing around the country in support of a No vote in the upcoming Lisbon Treaty. Even the Pro-Treaty Irish Times has been forced to report that reaction has generally been positive towards the party. Mary Lou McDonald has been especially effective as a canvasser, since people trust her knowledge of Europe and the EU. Of course, as journalists are noting, people in Ireland are very knowledgeable themselves on the Treaty. The fact that the Yes side are steadfastly refusing to discuss the text, instead trying to turn this into a referendum on the country's membership of the EU, speaks volumes to most people. read full story / add a comment

On Saturday, 29th of August, members of Sinn Féin’s college cumainn from all across Ireland gathered in the Party’s Ard Oifig, Baile Átha Cliath in order to plan and build for the coming college year. The day was a mix of teambuilding, presentations and workshops intended to help forge a common identity as college cumainn, build relationships and exchange ideas which would better equip republican students in each campus. Workshops on Education, Finance, Public relations, Campaigns and Recruitment were run on a collective basis by those present – sharing views and ideas across Ireland from Universities, ITs and Colleges. The Uladh Colleges Comhairle Ceantair gave a presentation to the university cumainn from the other three provinces on the model which they have developed during the last year – showing the advantages of efficient communication between third level campuses and the pooling of resources in a particular geographic area. read full story / add a comment

The monthly peace vigil at Shannon on Sunday 13 Sept took place on a beautiful Indian Summer's day when nature seemed to be at peace with itself. However, a closer look inside the airport fence showed very few civilian planes, with Aer Lingus cut backs on Shannon services, Air France/CityJet about to abandon its Shannon Paris route, and Ryanair also planning schedule cutbacks. There was plenty of military activity however, with four warplanes surrounded by Gardai and Airport Police. read full story / add a comment

Speaking during a Sinn Féin canvass in Dublin city centre today Sinn Féin President Gerry Adams yesterday urged voters to reject the Lisbon Treaty '”in order to build a Fairer Ireland and a Better Europe”. Membersof the party distributed leaflets in Dublin city centre asking people to reflect on why they were being asked to vote again. Responses varied, with most people saying they were going to vote the same way they did last year. However a worrying number of people were confused by the government's campaign on the treaty, and were unclear on the status of the so-called guarantees. read full story / add a comment
