offsite link Employers Are Afraid to Obey the Law Tue Mar 11, 2025 15:34 | C.J. Strachan
A London hospital allowing male staff to use the women's toilets is the latest employer to bring in EDI policies of dubious legality. The problem, says CJ Strachan, is that employers have become afraid to obey the law.

From Davy Carlin

Queens University and Management has bent over backwards to prevent the BAWM from having its meeting in the students union tonight at 7.30. And at very very late notice have eventually suceeded in blocking the BAWM from getting the room. So another room has been booked 2 minitues near by and yet another just in case.

Directions will be given on arrival, lets not forget that the leading Briitish army commander in Iraq during the war {shown again on TV last night} has very recently been invited to speak at Queens in a few months. Such actions by Queens will not prevent the will of those people whom may wish to oppose his arrival from doing so, in fact they will only strenghen it read full story / add a comment

Latinoamérica Unida, Cineversity, One World Centre and
Cuba Support Group (Belfast) present the film:

CHILE 1973-2003: 30 Years Since the Coup

On 11th September 1973 the US led a brutal
military coup in Chile. The democratically elected
President Salvador Allende was among 3,000 people
killed on that day. Under the subsequent dictatorship of
General Pinochet thousands more were killed, tortured
or ‘disappeared’. To commemorate the 30th anniversary
of the coup there will be a screening of the
documentary:

Chile, Obstinate Memory
(Chile, la memoria obstinada)

in Spanish with English subtitles.
Director: Patricio Guzmán, Chile, 1997, 52 mins.

The film revisits Guzmán’s banned documentary ‘The
Battle of Chile’ to stress the importance that
historical realities are not forgotten, and that new
generations have access to the truth.

Date and time: Thursday 11th September 7.30pm

Venue: An Cultúrlann, 216 Falls Road, Belfast

It has been long observed that people for some reason on their non-banking days readily absorb shite about Dangerous Places, Famous People, Sensible Saving Options, Holidays, Interesting facts, Sport results, Media, gardening and health as well looking ahead at “upcoming issues” including September 11.
This therefore Concerns the same conceptual textual space that weekly produces “I really can’t think of anything newsworty to write” stuff from me. But I do not feel ashamed of nor dissuaged from writing a Sunday article unhindered by petty concerns for how difficult it is to be an editor, a worker, or reader reconciling split infinitives. read full story / add a comment
