offsite link Is Rishi Sunak English? Thu Feb 27, 2025 16:13 | Eric Kaufmann
Is Rishi Sunak English? Prof Eric Kaufmann says yes, by nationality, but not by ethnicity. It's a subject that typically produces more heat than light, but that's because people don't pin down their terms.

We are at a critical moment. Ever more people are coming to the view that Net Zero is a terrible idea. But the Government is clinging to it at all costs. A new film seeks to puncture the groupthink.

Below is a link to a site explaining just what Trolls are. I've noticed Trolls winding people up on this site, especially when it comes to mocking those killed in war or humiliated in some way. Obviously this causes a lot of anger and distracts from what are otherwise interesting and informative discussions.

http://members.aol.com/intwg/trolls.htm

Hopefully the advice on this site will help people cut through the crap that Trolls ply them with. Remember, don't take the bait! read full story / add a comment

The great Housing rip off
Whether we pay rent or a mortgage, the cost of keeping a roof over our heads takes up a huge proportion of our income - those of us who are 'lucky' enough to be in a position to do so. Everywhere we look - both in Dublin and other cities and also in small rural villages and towns - the skyline is dotted with cranes and houses and apartments seem to be springing up everywhere. read full story / add a comment

Some of you may remember Saif and the ISM crew who were over here in Ireland a while ago. Saif got in contact with me recently to help publicise the 'Caravan for Palestine' they have planned.
He reckons it would be cool to meet up again with some of the Irish heads he met whilst here.....

Students Against Poverty would like to thank all those who give their time and help over the last 5 weeks. With little recources and even less experinece we have managed to fill a 45 seater bus, of school students, to attend the G8 protests in July. From the start all decisions were democraticaly decided. A series of debates and discusions were held where members had a chance to speak about issues such as war, age discrimanation and anti_racism. Through a range of events, we raised over £2000. This meant that a bus seat only cost £15 which was essential as school students are generally skint. A big thank you to all those who donated. Unfortunately, due to exams, SAP will be diappaering for the next 2 months(hence the rush in fillin the bus).
So we hope to see you all at the G8!

Last Mayday in Ireland we experience press hysteria in the run up to the EU summit protests. Some of these were really nuts - We were even told 'Anarchists plan to gas 10,000 Dubliners' (front page of the Sun). None of these predictions came true and amazingly our lap dog media never felt any need to publish any retractions after the event or even analysis as to how they were taking in. Now its happening in Scotland. read full story / add a comment
