Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

Any parent can currently withdraw their child from school if they're unhappy. Labour's Schools Bill ends that right for many, giving local authorities a veto. That's why all parents should protest this state power grab.

The Covid Inquiry's presumption that the vaccines were safe and effective is like the Post Office Inquiry presuming that Horizon was reliable, say Ben Kingsley and Molly Kingsley. It compromises the entire enterprise.

This is the latest in a series of guided walks organised by Cork Greenmap Project in and around Cork City to get people out on a Sunday enjoying their local area. Previous walks have been attended by up to 100 people. They are free to participate and easy going, fun for all the family. This time we have decided to hold the walk in Ringaskiddy to draw attention to the beauty of the area that still persists in shocking contrast to the over-concentration of industry in the area, and to support the people who are doing something to change this.
All welcome, hope to see you there.

Back into the theme of my recent submissions, that the model for our society is so flawed and broken that we cannot fix it, but must replace it.
This time, I explore body language and how it is assimilated into advertising. This leads to an introduction into mind control and behaviour modification and how we use these techniques. A long read, but a solid argument. Are our Government and 'Big business," a pack of liars?

A protest by Irish fishermen is currently (Friday Feb 3rd 1pm) taking place on the Liffey by the IFSC in Dublin. A whole fleet of trawlers are currently on the Liffey making a racket with their horns. They are protesting over a new Sea Fisheries Maritime Jurisdiction Bill currently before the Dáil. Among the proposals int the new bill is an amendment to allow the Irish Navy open fire on trawlers, who disobeyed instructions. This has since been scrapped but there are many other amendments before the Dail which challenge the rights of these workers. See below for further details:- read full story / add a comment

Since 1998, when Hugo Chavez Frias became president of the newly declared Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, the charismatic president, has emerged as one of the most influential and radical leaders in Latin America. His reforms and plans, if realised could alter the face of Venezuelan society, if not that of Latin America. Loathed by many Venezuelans, revered by even more, Chavez has reached almost messianic status as the leader in a country where the socially underprivileged, the poor and the uneducated masses have long since felt disenfranchised by the political process. read full story / add a comment
