A crucial step is fighting to build genuine campaigning students' unions capable of leading a mass movement to defeat the government's threat. In UCD, FEE is standing a slate of three candidates for sabbatical office in the Students' Union as well as running a referendum committing the union to serious action against fees. read full story / add a comment

dublin / miscellaneous / event notice Friday February 13, 2009 00:51 by Gino Kenny
People Before Profit Alliance in Ballyfermot and Clondalkin are calling on local people to support busworkers and fight cuts to the bus services in their area.
Dublin Bus is to lay off 300 employees and cut 120 routes across the city. This amounts to one tenth of the total bus service. Route 78A will have at least 20 departures per day cut from the existing timetable. Everyone knows that this is one of the most used buses in Dublin. There will most certainly be longer gaps between bus services on the 78A. On top of this they are getting rid of the 210 Route which connects the people of Clondalkin with Tallaght hospital.

As anyone in the hinterland of UK politics will have noticed, one of the House of Lords UK Independence party wanted to invite Geert Wilders the far-right Dutch parliamentarian with the ugly hair and uglier politics to show his "Fitna" vid this afternoon in Westminster.

But then the UK Home Office decided he was persona non-grata. Ooooo shock & horror a society, which like many in Europe faces an increase in far right politics and anti-migrant opinion against the backdrop of economic collapse, has now turned to debating whether or not he should have been allowed past the passport desk in the name of "Freedom of Speech". read full story / add a comment
