John O Neill, a Finglas community worker, is standing as a socialist candidate in the Finglas Ward, Dublin City, in the upcoming local elections.

Airfield is a working farm in Dundrum. I spent the first 18 years of my life growing up beside it and I am concerned about its future and the community's right to have access to it as a rare amenity in the area.

Rumours are that property developers have other ideas though. One example of this has been Gannon Developments and John Finnegan buying some of the farm’s land already, where they built the car park for a Luas station and several high rise appartment blocks. read full story / add a comment
galway / politics / elections / event notice Sunday January 11, 2004 20:08 by John Cunningham
Much has been said about the technical shortcomings of electronic voting, but less attention has been paid to the social aspects of the issue.

Topic: Electronic voting - the social aspects
Date/Time: Tuesday 13th January, 2004. 7pm.
Venue: NUI, Galway. Room IT 125G. (IT Building, at the back of the Arts/Science concourse). read full story / add a comment

I believe that popular resistance to the imposition of the neo-liberal
economic agenda is vital- whether one lives in Ireland or Bolivia. However,
it is often easier to see this agenda being imposed in the developing world
than it is to recognise it as an increasingly central dimension of the
‘European Project’. read full story / add a comment
