This St David's Day, why is Welsh Labour trying to decolonise Wales from Welsh people? Its vision of an 'anti-racist' Wales involves conjuring up an entirely fictitious history of multi-ethnic diversity.

national / eu / press release Monday September 01, 2008 22:57 by O. O'C.
The Oireachtas voted the Commission over €5 million to enable it do its job of informing citizens what the Lisbon referendum was about. Rarely can public money have been spent to such ill effect. The Commission spent €2.7 on media advertising. It paid An Post €1 million to deliver 2.2 million information handbooks to households. In the circumstances it was a democratic miracle that the majority of Irish voters rejected the proposal to amend the Irish Constitution. If the Commission had done the job it was statutorily required to do, the No-side majority would almost certainly have been much larger, for people would have learned of the constitutional revolution which Lisbon proposed, instead of being kept in ignorance of it. read full story / add a comment

Sat. Aug 30, 2008. Saint Paul, Minnesota Police Department raided a home at 951 Iglehart Avenue at gunpoint. The lawyers and journalists who were in target of the raid include a contributing photojournalist with "Democracy Now", whose host Amy Goodman appears in a video clip jumping a fence to question police officers. This is part of a series of police actions on the eve of the Republican National Convention in St. Paul.

After several hours, all those detained were released. No arrests. No property was seized as result of the search warrant. The clip ends with an interview with homeowner Mike Whalen. At the start of the clip, a neighbor shouts to the media and onlookers that they could all come into her backyard to see the detained people held in the adjacent backyard.

The newspaper of the Basque independence & armed struggle tradition "Gara" has carried an interview with Amadeu's mother & his lawyer on the weekend which they reflected on the release of the leader of Batasuna Arnaldo Otegi, & his call for dialogue and prisoner support. A translation to English of that Gara interview is included in this news piece on the ongoing campaigns.

Street activity, stencils, graffitis etc., are increasingly visible. International anarcho-solidarity has seen embassies and consuls picketed in South America & even Ireland.

Some things in life are pretty obvious. One is that you don’t attack a heavily armed gang that outnumbers you 30 to 1. So what was Georgian leadership thinking when it ordered an attack on South Ossetia? There can be no question that they thought they would be able to defeat Russia. There are, after all, limits to human idiocy. read full story / add a comment
