Eamon McCann needs no introduction. Both will speak on the need for a new Left in Ireland, one that actively resists injustice and acts for real change. read full story / add a comment

When I heard of this I though at first it was a joke, a sick joke indeed. But no, its true. Theres even an FBI page. What next I wonder. Just like the old USSR and Hitler youth tactics, get em while they are young and impressionable. read full story / add a comment
