offsite link Mandates Matter Sun Mar 16, 2025 13:00 | Dr James Allan
Winning elections is pointless without real change, says Dr James Allan. Right-wing leaders must take bold stances on immigration, Net Zero and the culture wars ? playing it safe will only lead to failure.

offsite link Shakespeare Set to Be Decolonised at His Own Birthplace Sun Mar 16, 2025 11:00 | Sallust
Shakespeare's Birthplace Trust and woke academics are "decolonising" the Bard by downplaying his genius, linking his legacy to white supremacy and scrubbing "offensive" language from its collections.

The German political establishment has responded to Donald Trump with an idiotic constitutionally-anchored pledge to deindustrialise in the next 20 years. Could Friedrich Merz be more inept, laments Eugyppius.

offsite link There?s No Such Thing as ?Green? Industry Sun Mar 16, 2025 07:00 | Ben Pile
The collapse of Swedish battery startup Northvolt shows once more that there is no such thing as 'green' industry, says Ben Pile. Industry needs lots of cheap energy ? something that China has and Europe doesn't.

Left wing and right wingers who scream at each other about the Iraq war should sober up. It may well be that within the borders of nation states issues of law are in the camp of "right" and "wrong" but in the International stage there is no only "necessity." read full story / add a comment

Greenore/Cooley Fisherman's Association is concerned about inappropriate colonisation of Carlingford Lough and it is of the opinion that nonsenses such as The Lough's Agency (set up under the "Belfast Agreement") are foreshadowed in the roles arrogated to themselves by our own Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources. read full story / add a comment

Bin campaigners slam High Court Ruling, plan Appeal

Dublin Campaign Against the Bin Tax has strongly criticised today?s High
Court decision in a case brought by three Finglas residents regarding the
fairness and legality of the imposition of bin charges. The case centred
around the ?polluter pays? principle and challenged the legality of the
imposition of a set bin charge which did not take account of the volume
of waste produced. read full story / add a comment

The following is the entire text of George W. Bush's State of the Union address.
Since this is an open media forum it thought it appropiate to publish it.
Whatever your views on Bush certainly this speech is hard to beat!
John Kerry or Howard Dean please take note. Bush could trounce you in a public debate! The new articulate intelligent Bush is marching in your direction!
if the Right wing of America is to be defeated in November Democrats will have to come up with a better slogan that "No War For Oil" read full story / add a comment

Current trade negotiations between the USA and Australia shed some light on exactly how the EU Commission and the secretive EU 133 Committee view future international trade deals with regard to our (EU) public health systems.

Basically the USA is trying to force Australia into accepting that when the state bulk buys medicinal drugs it is acting illegally, distorting international trade and creating unnecessarily restrictive trade barriers.

The Australian state bulk buys the medicinal drugs so that it can provide them free and/or sell them cheap to the Australian public.

How did I find this out? Why does it show the way for the Antidemocratic Proposed EU Constitution? Read on ... read full story / add a comment

The visit of Tony Wentworth (BNP) to UCC has apparently been cancelled. The decision was taken on Friday night when the General Services people in the college advised the college that it would be too risky.

Unfortunately they did not cancel the event on ethical grounds so no doubt we will be going though this again next year.

So congrats to all involved. The meeting will go ahead tonight to discuss how the campaign went- upstairs in the Phoenix Bar at 8pm.
