Below is a proposed text for a 'No Platform Policy' for TCD. We will be circulating copies to the TCDSU and amongst the political parties over the next few days and are expecting their full support.

Also, we are confident that those who stood up to the fascists in UCD will support our campaign to deny the extremists the oppurtunity to use TCD as a recruiting ground for hate. read full story / add a comment

With all the fuss over Justin Barrett not speaking at U.C.D. and then speaking at N.U.I.G. I decided to have a look at some of the websites frequented by fascists in Ireland and see what type of people hung out there. In one thread on the Irish Nationalist website someone identified themselves as having worked on Justin Barrett’s election campaign, another as a justin Barrett supporter and someone else gave the user name of the nazi skinhead who got into a fight at the back of the lecture theatre when Barrett tried to speak in U.C.D. By going through these sites i hoped to learn more about the kind of people who support Justin Barrett and the type of people who will turn out and watch him speak. read full story / add a comment

Thanks to CCTV Jeff Hoskin has been cleared of assault on the officer. However, the footage did expose the officers' lies when it showed scenes where the male officer assaulted Mr Hoskin, who was minutes before already a victim of a homophobic attack.

Mr Hoskin, 27, has prepared a detailed dossier of potentially damaging allegations and is also to again call in Police Ombudsman Nuala O'Loan whose investigators dismissed the complaints against the police during the summer. read full story / add a comment
