national / eu / news report Saturday March 25, 2006 16:50 by Kathy Sinnott
Last week in the European Parliament we voted strongly to eliminate Mercury from our food, air, water and soil in as far as we can. Of course deciding to do it and doing it are different things but it is a start and I am hopeful that even if the elimination is not complete, people will at least benefit from a reduction. In California, thermerisol which contains mercury has been removed from pediatric vaccines. As the children who got thermerisol free vaccines are reaching preschool age, the state is reporting the first slowing down of the rate of increase in the numbers of children becoming autistic.

This is a setback for the BNP but they havent gone away. They still managed to poll one third of the votes cast. But they were defending a seat that they had won in the previous Council Elections and their inability to retain it against an unpopular Government suggests they may well have peaked in Bradford.

I guess I will give two cheers for Labour.

The victory of Evo Morales in the presidential elections in Bolivia in December has underlined once more that across Latin America there is a demand for change. The first significant victory came back in 2002 when Lulu, the leader of the Brazilian Workers Party was elected to power after a long and arduous campaign that stretched back almost two decade. It is claimed that Lulu’s victory and his pronouncements about making Brazil a fairer society sent ‘shivers’ through world stock markets. read full story / add a comment

Last Saturday the third anniversary of the US-led imperialist invasion of Iraq was marked in Dublin by a demonstration and march of up to 1000 people through the city centre. This turnout was a major disappointment and highlighted the inertia which has affected the antiwar movement since the highpoint of February 2003 when over 100,000 people took to the streets of the nation’s capital. Here you can read the report and find out how to download the flyer from Workers Power. read full story / add a comment

The digital revolution has created an imbalance in the supply of information, which has impacted heavily on minority ruling interests. Media moguls, minority interests and their puppet governments are lamenting the good ol’ days when the mass media supplied ‘disinfected’ information to a gullible population. Millions around the globe are now able to exchange information, become independent publishers and have a ‘voice’. It is not surprising that information from sources at an ‘event’ often contradicts popular reporting and tailored versions disseminated by the mass media and centralist governments. read full story / add a comment

Sinn Fein Education Spokesperson Michael Ferguson commenting following the BELB meeting with Direct Rule Minister Angela Smith said,

" The British Government Direct Rule Minister Angela Smith is now trying to tell us that we are not being accurately informed by our own Education Boards and that we should make the cuts and wait on some small funding streams that may become available later".

Labour leader pat Rabbitte showed his opportunism when he called for a look at work visas for EU nationals. He raised the spectre of 40 million poles chasing “Irish Jobs”. It was a thoroughly disappointing turn by Labour but hardly surprising. read full story / add a comment
