500 tons = 500,000kg assuming 333g of food or other material per person this would barely feed the people of Basra for one day. The aid by sea is a farce, the US/K forces are shipping huge quantities of food and material to their troops every day by road from Kuwait. Given the 150,000 troops they are probably moving in tens of thousands of food and war material per day! The 500 tons of aid is a pittance and a joke and is pure propaganda! Why don't they ship material in by road if they are serious about relief! I suggest they are not and this is a ruse to starve the Iraqis out on the quiet while depicting themselves as saviours and availing of photo opportunities along the way. read full story / add a comment

In recent times there have been many racist and inflammatory statements about refugees and asylum seekers, much of it coming from Fianna Fail, but also from some of the other establishment parties. Now that the war on Iraq is creating more and more refugees these pro-war deputies should be asked if they will welcome these refugees into Ireland read full story / add a comment

Democracy is under threat in the United States; anyone who objects to the conflict in Iraq is not allowed to say so I can personally testify to this as I was told by many friends in the US while visiting recently that they are against the war and attend marches etc. but feel unable to speak out in the workplace etc. for fear of a backlash from war-mongers read full story / add a comment

The only surprise was that the vote in favour was so close - only 45 votes seperated the pro and anti partnership sides. The choice is where do we go from here? Have ICTU finally signed their death warrant? Will the breakaway Independent Workers Union (IWU) gain many new disaffected union members? read full story / add a comment
