British security chiefs are reported to be hopping mad after an American based internet site published a list of over 100 of their active agents and their locations . Many are based in Africa , Eastern Europe , Iraq and Asia . British spooks are terrified the cover of their agents has been irrevocably blown and their intelligence contacts compromised ( one is even referred to simply as a "wanker" by occupation which would indicate someone is ticked off about something in dear old Blighty .. Some of the names have been based in Ireland . The most prominent on the list is former UK Liberal leader Paddy Ashdown , a "former" British Army officer . It seems he just switched to a plain clothes army career instead . read full story / add a comment

international / racism & migration related issues / other press Tuesday August 30, 2005 17:23 by plato
A series of demonstrations in the cities of Xanthi and Komotini, followed by a march towards the "refugees reception center" in Vena, took place in the frame of the "Actions Against the Borders". Outside the detention center, the protestors had a violent conflict with the police while trying to get in. Finally, a group entered the place and managed to write down the names of the refugees, in order to submit asylum requests on behalf of them, while video-taping the place and the awful living conditions.

At the first day, during a demonstration across the Greek-Bulgarian borders, two vans were temporarily blocked on Bulgarian side. Finally, given the pressure by the demonstrators on the Greek side, they were allowed to cross the borders.
