Determined that there should be SOME kind of opposition in the Stormont Assembly, Eamonn McCann has agreed to stand for election to the Assembly. He points out that while the other parties are at each others' throats all the time about 'constitutional' issues, they are at one in implementing the neo-liberal agenda of privatisation and public sector cuts. As for imperialism, he argues that "The fight against imperialism in 2003 is a fight against US-led imperialism across the globe, or it is nothing. Those who welcome Bush as “a friend of Ireland” position themselves on the side of imperialism." read full story / add a comment

It was resolved at the recent AGM of the IAWM

"to establish an expert legal committee (either independently organised or in affiliation) to advise the movement on legal strategies to advance its aims"

these broadly being to hold the Irish Government accountable to Law, to end Irish participation in wars abroad and reverse the increasing militarisation and repression at home.

We therefore invite all interested legal professionals to attend a meeting at The Teachers Club, 36 Parnell Sq. Dublin 1, at 2pm on Saturday 8th November 2003, to discuss and launch this initiative.

See below for full details of event.

N.B. this is an extraordinary meeting intended only for qualified legal professionals - following the discussion a full account of the proceedings will be published here. read full story / add a comment
