Why was Keir Starmer's recent speech on AI written like a Mr Men book? Prof James Alexander wonders if the Prime Minister knows what he's talking about. Is AI really "the ultimate force for national renewal"?

How come Elon Musk is automatically a Nazi, but a man who possesses a terror training manual, creates stores of ricin, kills several people and pleads guilty to terror charges, is not a terrorist at all?

This article by David Gibney from the Right2Water website has been republished here in light of the upcoming water charges protest on this Sat 23rd Jan in advance of the election due in the next few weeks. It highlights the scam and lies around Irish Water and how it is fully intended to privatise it. If and when the TIPP agreement is signed between the EU and USA, privatisation will be unstoppable not just for our water but for all services right across the board.

THERE are three obvious agendas behind the imposition of domestic water charges. If you were to believe the government spin, you’d think it was about conservation.

But the three real reasons are:

Shifting the burden of paying for water from commercial enterprises to households;
Giving tax breaks to the wealthy while imposing water charges on everyone else; and
Lining up the future privatisation of our water industry.

There are a number of ways we can prove the conservation argument is a farce. The first and most obvious is through direct comparison with other countries that already have domestic water charges in place. read full story / add a comment
