‘Marxists’ for another Labour Party
The March 19 launch of the Socialist Party’s Campaign for a New Workers’ Party went according to plan, writes Peter Manson. The 450 comrades who signed up to its founding declaration overwhelmingly voted for the SP’s plans for a Labour Party mark two.
Putting forward the agenda for the CNWP conference, the Socialist Party’s Dave Nellist pledged from the chair that the organisers would “do our best to make sure minorities are heard”. But also, he said, “in particular the voice of the ordinary workers will be heard today”.

there is a Belarus imc. Most of their articles as of today focus on the elections (which they have misspelt (?) in their english version as "erections") and "state terror". 34 articles each.

If anyone can read russian or bylerus might be an idea to do the translating thing.

meanwhile here's a link to a video of indymedia heads in Minsk, which begins nicely enough and ought remind us all, that even if you live out there beyond the borders of our understanding and interest, you still bop your head to techno. read full story / add a comment

Today’s demonstration against the Canadian seal hunt went great, better than expected! We had a wonderful turn out, people just kept coming and going from 12noon til 2pm today Thursday March 23rd 2006! Volunteers from ARAN came from Limerick, Galway, Sligo, Meath and joined with our friends in Dublin! Many other caring people could not make it due to work commitments but called, written and emailed the Canadian embassy on the day, we also had a wonderful member of the Canadian public at this demo too and she now speaks out against this hunt and much more on animal cruelty. read full story / add a comment

"But, hark! a voice like thunder spake, The West's awake! the West's awake!" This is a first hand account of what is probably the first anti-war demonstration on the campus of Glenville State College since the Vietnam era protests. Students are fed up with President Bush and his illegal war in Iraq that is costing the lives of West Virginia's youth which are being exploited by the military in promise for scholarships. We have arisen from our slumber and shall no long stand idly by as Bush and his cronies are destroying not only our country but the world of which all of us live!

Unless you're dead you've probably all heard about how shittty Irelands health service is. Our minister for health has her own 'Mary Harney Suite' (it's a corridor full of trolleys) in Tallaght hospital. A decade of unprecedented economic growth has proved that throwing money at a problem won't make it go away. So what’s the answer I hear you say? Well.....a doctors strike if we are to believe the evidence. read full story / add a comment

Its not just in Catholic schools that child abuse takes place, it also occurs in Muslim schools. Fortunately in Britain, some in the Muslim community have been prepared to stand up and demand that Islamic schools should have to face the same inspections and take the same precautions against child abuse as any other school.

This is also an issue in Ireland, already in one of the Islamic schools there has been a problem with the school spending too much time on Koranic studies. Islamic children also have a right to be protected against abuse. Anyone who is going into the schools should be vetted in the same as those who enter other schools. As Anne Cryer says below: "Failing to protect the children in madrasas because of 'cultural sensitivities' is nonsense - it is racist to differentiate between children and to fail to offer that protection "
