Michael Parenti has written today of the Stolen Election of 2004. Confirming what many already suspected and has been reported elsewhere, Parenti's account of what happened to ballot papers, at voting centres and to US voters overseas makes stomach-churning reading. read full story / add a comment

For almost 2 decades I have been aware of the awesome extent of Ivana Bacik's ambition. Ivana Bacik has found the cash to put up a banner advertisement on the online version of the Irish Times, alledging that only 1 in 3 of TCD graduates voted in the last Senate elections. It appears to me, that Ivana moving on from her failure to win a seat in the European Parliament is now setting her sights on the Senate. Oh dear - whose seat is she after? Will it be David's or Shane's? For as a TCD graduate she can only seat on the education panel unless she wants to go on the rubber chicken circuit and find voters all over the country. read full story / add a comment

Is feminism obsolete or is it being re-invented? Today, feminist engagements and gender-sensitive approaches have proliferated across a broad spectrum of disciplines and movements. The de-territorialization and re-location of feminist practices and discourses in multiple and heterogeneous fields and contexts calls for a re-evaluation of the (visible and invisible) impact of feminism on different areas of social praxis and the possibilities for re-imagining feminist politics as an emergent moment in the dynamics of social change.

A Public Meeting to discuss Ireland’s Healthcare System At Donnycarney Youth and Community Centre Tuesday 11th July @ 8pm Speakers: Jo Murphy Lawless Sociologist School of Nursing and Midwifery Trinity College Dublin Jo Tully Vice President Irish Nurses Organisation Organised by Artane People Before Profit: For more information contact Martin O’Sullivan Tel: 087 8289243 Your are invited to attend this meeting to share your views on what you think Ireland’s Healthcare System should be. We want to build a campaign, with no political party affiliations, for a Health Service that reflects the views and needs of the public. The Health Service is in crisis… In 2001, the Department of Health acknowledged that 3,000 more hospital bed places were needed but the government has done little to provide them. On one day alone recently 433 patients were left waiting on trolleys in our hospitals. 100,000 women are denied screening and early treatment for breast cancer because they have the wrong postal address. But it’s not just patients who suffer. Support the Nurses The Irish Nurses Organisation has unanimously passed a motion of no confidence in the Tánaiste Mary Harney. They are demanding actions to save the health service pointing out that many lives are being put at risk because of the condition of A & E departments and that medical professionals are leaving the Irish health service because of work conditions. There are 60,000 registered nurses in Ireland but only 40,000 working in our hospitals. Intolerable conditions and low pay are driving many from the profession. Privatisation of health is a disaster Harney wants to build private hospitals on the grounds of public hospitals but this will mean greater robbery of the public purse because the state will subsidise these for-profit hospitals to the tune of €40 million for every €100 million invested. This money could have been used to create more public beds. Private hospitals will only carry out operations where they can make a profit. They will not provide A&E services or long term care. They will not train or educate staff. When the tax breaks run out, the owners of the private hospitals can sell them off as private apartments. This is state subsidised profit. A campaign of all communities and health care workers The government is deliberately running down the health service and is trying to force people towards privatised healthcare. It’s time for Harney and the profiteers to go. We need a movement in this country that stands for People Before Profit that can challenge the big-business, privatising agenda of the Dail parties. read full story / add a comment
