Here is the full text of Noel Dempsey's speech to the Fianna Fáil Ard Fheis, in which he explains that - -Fianna Fáil had no idea that bankers, builders and developers were running wild with the possibilities of the unregulated economy. -If they had known about the corruption and endemic and dishonesty, they would have done something about it, but just because these people were funding their election campaigns, playing golf with them, loaning them their holiday homes etc, does not mean that they were aware of where the money was coming from. -It could be much worse. -It will get worse. read full story / add a comment

Peter Tatchell writes on the need for principled solidarity with Iran: Support the People of Iran against US Imperialism. But also against the Theocratic Regime. Full text at link. Principled, consistent left-wingers do not base their politics on the unprincipled, inconsistent geo-political manoeuvres of western powers. We stand with the oppressed against their oppressors, regardless of what the west (or anyone else) demands or threatens. US sabre-rattling against Iran is worrying. A military attack must be resisted. However, opposition to Washington’s war-mongering and neo-imperial designs is no reason for socialists, greens and other progressives to go soft on Tehran. read full story / add a comment
