Sorry for the short notice about this! With all that's happening at the moment, what with our 6-month EU Presidency, and the various protests, both Trade Union and others taking place against this, and a general upsurge in militancy and general discontent generally, we in the Independent Workers Union (IWU) feel that now is a good time after almost 3 years to formally launch the Independent Workers Union (IWU) with our inaugural Annual Delegate Conference in Cork on Saturday, April 3rd. Details of which will be posted later. read full story / add a comment

I am posting a piece below on Patricks Day that I wrote a couple of years ago. It tries to give an idea of the contradiction between remembering and missing my home and at the same time having to seperate myself from the form that the celebration of March 17th takes in Chicago. read full story / add a comment
