And yes, then, in a perverse way, I do think Vincent Browne has a point. In the short term there is no way out other than, more or less, what is being officially advocated by the establishment i.e. outside of revolution. At present neither Ireland nor Western Europe have the popular culture nor organised forms to develop social revolution into communism. In the absence of these conditions Europe can secure nothing more than the model of present day Iraq on a European scale --nihilism. read full story / add a comment

The Galway Advertiser - a free paper - has undoubtedly the biggest readership in the county. Every week in its Grassroots column anonymous authors comment on the local political scene. This week a hard-hitting article has contrasted the Reagan visit to Galway with recent political developments. It is worth a read. read full story / add a comment
dublin / eu / event notice Sunday May 08, 2011 00:37 by O. O'C.
Ireland’s Euro-fanatics and ultra-Europhiles are getting panicky. As the European Central Bank turns us all into indentured debt peons for a generation and France and Germany plan assaults on our 12.5% company tax rate, they fear that Ireland’s long love-affair with the EU may be coming to an end. Hence the ceremony of rededication planned for the Dáil this Monday, “Europe Day”, 9 May. It is meant as an opportunity for the political leaders of the Euro-faithful to renew their vows. read full story / add a comment

Some readers will be aware that for some time I have been advocating the construction of a cross-union grass roots network. A meeting has been convened tomorrow to discuss such a project. Unfortunately for me (and for any other with similar interests) a conference to discuss Republicanism & Socialism has been scheduled for some time now to take place on the same day. I publish these draft principles for discussion not to promote bureaucracy but with the intention that any such network formed remains a broad and militant organisation, the property of its members and not of one political party or another nor as a sectarian battleground. read full story / add a comment |
