Australian federal government expenditure on media consultants and market analysts exceeds three hundred million dollars per annum. For all the Taxpayer’s money that is spent, only a proportion of the population adopts Howard’s cringe mentality and succumbs to the contractionist politics of fear. Announce the (remote) possibility of ‘chicken’ fever (avian flu) mutating and a percentage of the population rushes pharmacies and exhausts the supply of an anti-viral drug reputed to alleviate some of the ill effects (but not prevent) this disease. [Remember the Y2K scare and associated hysteria?] In answer to the tiniest ‘army’ in the history of warfare (a few dozen ‘terrorists’) we turn our whole existence upside down running in fear and loathing at every little alarm that our lying politicians would sound. read full story / add a comment

Postmen and Postwomen of Eire.
Many times in past generations have you been called upon to suffer the yoke of privitisation and Fianna Fail meddling in essential services, and you have answered that call with industrial action.

Well done!
90% of the members of the CWU have turned out to vote 90% in favour of strike action. Thats more democractic than any ard fheis in gleneagles.

The strike notice has to be for 2 weeks time. read full story / add a comment

Considering that the Rossport 5 will be up in court on Tuesday 25th October, we have decided to hold a protest on the same day outside the Falls Road Shell garage at St James's. The protest will begin at 5pm.

There is a chance, however remote, that the five men could end up being jailed again after this hearing on Tuesday. There will be other actions taking place in different parts of the country to coincide with their court appearance. It's important that we do what we can to support them and to express solidarity with this important cause. read full story / add a comment
