Monday, 25 April 2005 Author - Oz.unslaver.com A Central Queensland family wonders at the priorities of a local high school after their child collapsed on parade. While the family was subjected to a two week period of imtimidation by the School administration at the start of the year over uniform breaches, they wait to be informed of their childs fainting fit some five days after the event. In Febuary this year, the child and the parents were informed that it would be unacceptable for the child to attend school wearing basic black shorts rather than the regular uniform royal blue. The child was threatened with disciplinary action for refusing to wear school supplied clothing and had been forced to sit out a lesson because of the uniform breach. read full story / add a comment

Looks like there are two (loosely speaking) May Day events, one organised by Labour Party, the other co-ordinated by Green councillor, Niall O Brolchain. This is how the sponsors are promoting their events (i) LABOUR'S MAY DAY: May Day commemorates past struggles to gain basic rights. In the present it emphasises the need for solidarity. May Day was first celebrated in Galway in 1919 and the Labour Party continues this tradition. This year the event will be celebrated at the Westwood House Hotel in Newcastle. The night will include a Race Night & Social. Emmet Stagg will be a special guest and Michael D. Higgins will be there, as will Mayor Catherine Connolly and councillors (ii) MAY DAY SPEAKER'S CORNER Speakers Corner in Galway will take place at 2.30pm on Sunday 1st May. The theme for this month will be Social Issues but in line with the philosophy of Speakers Corner, all topics may be spoken about. Join in at 2.30pm outside St. Nicholas church read full story / add a comment

From fast food outlets, to assembly lines, from corner shops to hyper markets there is one common relationship. That is the relationship between boss and worker. These two classes have nothing in common, and a constant struggle is fought between them. Over the years we have won free education, free healthcare, the welfare state, the 5 day week, the 8 hour day and the other rights. It's time we organized to defend these rights and to win more. read full story / add a comment

Monday, 25 April 2005 There is no doubt that one of Australias’ greatest shames is the Stolen Generation of Indigenous Children. While the debate over that sad part of our past rages, another Stolen Generation is happening under our noses and we aren’t seeing it. This new generation of children raised outside their family is not restricted to Aboriginal children but is applied equally to all children across the board. The Department of Child Safety has been given open range to exercise the Child Protection Act 1999 without any recourse left open to the parents of Queensland. read full story / add a comment

international / eu / news report Sunday April 24, 2005 20:43 by Garret Fitzpatrick
Economic Partnership Agreements are new free trade agreements between the EU and a group of developing countries in Africa, the Carribean and the Pacific (APC). They are to be operative from the end of 2007, but the poorest countires already have supposed access to EU markets, so there is little gain for them in EPAs. Under EPAs developing countries must open up their markets even more than is required by the WTO. This involves - fully eliminating import duties and quotas on imports - progressive liberalisation of services - opening up of capital markets - liberalising the three 'new issues' refused by them at the WTO in Cancun. Shamefully, this is being negotiated under the EU's aid package - the Cotonou Agreement - which is supposed to be poverty focused. Act on line to stop these unfair agreements, which will be damaging to the world's poorest countries: http://www.comhlamh.org/campaigns/383 read full story / add a comment

Less than a week old, one globally based Counter Surveillance Co-operative is more than aware of the new strategies employed in the effort to bring rampant censorship across the Internet. ACLU, Global Coalition Launch International Surveillance Campaign coincided with the lauch of the ICAM Co-op and is endorsed as a practical and forceful statement against the increasing and seemingly endless array of surveillance being utilised openly and covertly across the globe. read full story / add a comment
