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.

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.

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.

The politics of the Middle East and beyond have been dominated by Islamist movements at least since the Iranian revolution of 1978-9. Variously described in the West as 'Islamic fundamentalism', 'Islamicism', 'integrism', 'political Islam' and 'Islamic revivalism', these movements stand for the 'regeneration' of society through a return to the original teachings of the prophet Mohammed. They have become a major force in Iran and the Sudan (where they still hold power), Egypt, Algeria and Tajikistan (where they are involved in bitter armed struggles against the state), Afghanistan (where rival Islamist movements have been waging war with each other since the collapse of the pro-Russian government), the occupied West Bank of the Jordan (where their militancy is challenging the old PLO hegemony over the Palestinian resistance), Pakistan (where they make up a significant portion of the opposition) and most recently Turkey (where the Welfare Party has taken control of Istanbuland Ankara read full story / add a comment

there is a disagreement among socialist as to the best road to the liberation of palestine. The swp argues for a united secular socialist state of Jews and Arabs living side by side. We do not believe that seperate jewish and palestinian states, both founded on the basis of racial and religious segregation, would lead to anything other than what james connolly called, refering to the partition of this country, 'a carnival of reaction'. read full story / add a comment

Sorry for the lateness of this, but since I haven't heard from anyone is there an Anti Bin Tax Protest 2Day? And if so will it be at the usual time and place, ie from 6 to 7 outside City Hall, Dame Street? With this being the 2nd last or last Meeting, depending on what date in May the Election is held, Meeting of Dublin City Council before the Election, I think that it's very important to show both the Councillors and the Public at large that the Bin Tax will be a very big issue in the upcoming Election Nationwide. By the time of the next City Council Meeting the Election may very well be over! read full story / add a comment
