“What is the use of rainbow week” is the title of a tread on the UCD student union message board. Followed by a comment that says “I don't know if the scrawls on the posters were homophobic - sounds like it was people who think it's funny to slag gay people, not necessarily homophobes!” Reading this makes me think of this Le Tigre song Tres bien and the line “because they will try to convince us that we have arrived, that we are already there, that it has happened. Because we need to live in the place where we are truly alive, present, safe and accounted for.” read full story / add a comment

The drop in CAO numbers was reported on the front page of last Wednesday’s Irish Times. However it only briefly mentioned that the OECD is currently working on a report of the third level sector here. What it didn’t mention though was that this was at the behest of the Higher Education Authority. Also going unreported is the fact that the OECD heaped praise in a report (following an IMF heaping similar praise) upon Blair’s top up fees in January. I wonder if the HEA and the Dept of Education are expecting an OECD change of heart, in regards to it’s future report for our colleges? read full story / add a comment

The ESF may not take place in London due to extreme lack of cashfIow but if it does this is what we're looking at:

I just received the following mail about the London ESF meetings from an activist friend. It's a familiar litany of undemocratic, concensus-free, bullying decision making based on a phony

Who can deny that the Bush Junta did not leap into action. The instant people complained, a federal enquiry was launched to discover what happened, why and to make sure it does not happen again. Shame it was only Janet Jackson's breast that got that treatment. read full story / add a comment

The Hard Left consistently claim that the insurrection in Iraq is due to PEOPLE POWER. They have romantic notions of the oppressed proletariat of Iraq rising up against the United States oppressor.
They deny that Al-Qaeda is intimately involved in terrorist attacks against coalition forces, Iraq people themselves and is fanatically opposed to the international community represented by the United Nations becoming involved in the rebuilding of Iraq as a free democratic society. read full story / add a comment
