At least there's one Union that still has the balls to do what it's supposed to do - namely looking after their members. The National Bus and Rail Union (NBRU) is not a member of the Irish Congress of Trade Unions (ICTU) thank god! This 4 hour work stoppage this Wednesday the 15th is one up for the CIE workers and gives the 2 fingers to sell-out merchants such as O'Toole, Gergharty and Beggs and to you sell-out scoundrels such as Beggs I say f**k off! And I mean that! read full story / add a comment

Party Chairman, John Gormley TD, says it is now clear that Shannon could become a target in the event of a war. And he says the party is now planning to spearhead political opposition to a war against Iraq and the use of Shannon by military planes. read full story / add a comment

which is a very real sign that involvement is improving. Welcome to all the new contributors who are "thinking for themselves" "not being humble" and "sharing their two pence worth". It is also probably a sign of increased readership too. Lovely does it! Welcome. One week can never be enough to judge the merits of this space. read full story / add a comment

Palestinians doubt Blair can deliver," announces the BBC. "Four Palestinians die in West Bank," reports CNN. "Many Palestinian families divided," says NBC. The modern media is filled with stories about the Palestinians, their plight, their dilemmas and their struggles. All aspects of their lives seem to have been put under the microscope. Only one question never seems to be addressed: Who are the Palestinians? Who are these people who claim the Holy Land as their own? What is their history? Where did they come from? And how did they arrive at the country they call Palestine? Now that both U.S. President George Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon (in direct opposition to the platform he was elected on) have come out in favor of a Palestinian state, it would be prudent to seek answers to these questions. After all, for all we know, Palestine could be as real as Disneyland. read full story / add a comment

This ain't a story, merely some directions. There's a group called the Project for the New American Century, they have an extensive web-site, who's founding members include Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld. They've been calling for war on Iraq since 1997 amongst other things. I'd recommend a visit to them, they're ever expanding the ideological basis necessary for both Domestic and Foreign U.S policy. Its the heart of the spin machine. Why not ask them irksome questions too? read full story / add a comment
