offsite link Any Electrician Knows that Lego Bricks are Genderless, Not ?Heteronormative? Tue Feb 11, 2025 20:00 | Will Jones
Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

offsite link Why All Parents Should Protest the Children?s Wellbeing and Schools Bill Tue Feb 11, 2025 18:14 | Elizabeth Dulley
Any parent can currently withdraw their child from school if they're unhappy. Labour's Schools Bill ends that right for many, giving local authorities a veto. That's why all parents should protest this state power grab.

The Covid Inquiry's presumption that the vaccines were safe and effective is like the Post Office Inquiry presuming that Horizon was reliable, say Ben Kingsley and Molly Kingsley. It compromises the entire enterprise.

international / eu / news report Monday July 05, 2004 14:26 by Barry Finnegan   text 3 comments (last - tuesday july 06, 2004 03:05)
Social and environmental justice groups have been campaigning against the shadowy Article 133 Committee for many years now.

The way the Committee works is that the EU Council Of Ministers votes either by a Qualified Majority (QMV) or by unanimity (each Member State has a veto) to give the unelected EU Commission the power to open international trade negotiations in this or that sector of the economy. Once the Council gives permission to open negotiations (bilaterally with one country, or multilaterally at the WTO) the Article 133 Committee does the horse-trading and details of what the EU is offering and demanding disappears from public view. read full story / add a comment

Sitting here in Galway today reading the newswire, i can hear military jets (presumably US) flying overhead in preparation for the Salthill Airshow. For some people in certain parts of our world that sound means imminent and indiscriminate injury or death. For us its just a fun day out down in Salthill, naked militarism? no its just Entertainment!.
Once more we are faced with the stark contrast between Reality and the life that we actually lead here ...in cloud cuckoo land.

Use the airshow to

JULY 1, 2004 Washington, DC—A group calling themselves the Party Liberation
Front (PLF) took over the lobby of the World Bank Headquarters this morning
and threw a party to “celebrate” the 60th birthday of the World Bank and the
success of its global capitalist agenda. 60 years ago finance leaders from
the major world powers met in Bretton Woods, NH to establish the World Bank
and IMF. Since then wealthy elites in the US and elsewhere have reaped
billions of dollars from countries forced to abide by World Bank policies. read full story / add a comment
