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.

Article in the Observer. Iraqi scientist accuses "a female member" of the UN weapons inspection team of telling him that if he leaves Iraq then his wife (suffering from diabetes and kidney problems) can get medical treatment. Context: Iraq had a great health care system and after the bombing and starvation many don't have clean water. read full story / add a comment

The Black bloc targetted the hated INS (Immigration and Naturalization Service) building and some banks for symbolic vandalism. More important was the message that direct action hasn't gone away. Situation is still developing. read full story / add a comment

Airport eerily quiet, hardly anyone in it at all. Airport police set up a check point on the main road. A US MILITARY HERCULES landed It parked near cargo terminal. Ryanair landed 5 minutes later, went to usual stand close to the Herc. We announced this in the terminal. I called the cops. Ryanair passengers were visibly shocked, as they left the terminal, the words "apalling" and "disgrace" were used to describe the presence of the Hercules. then ATA landed. then lots of peace activists started arriving up from the camp. Then the troops got back on their plane (much earlier than planned) AND THEN IT LEFT. read full story / add a comment

Tim Allen, master chef, of Ballymaloe House, County Cork, was convicted yesterday of a despicable crime: using child pornography. The children exploited in the films used by Allen for his pleasure will probably go to bed hungry, if they have a bed or are not already dead. Yet the judge allowed this monster to walk free, because he is rich and could pay a fine. One law for the rich and one for the poor. Boycott Ballymaloe House and all its products! read full story / add a comment

Prime time on Rte last night exposed some of the truth about the coverup of the shady circumstances surrounding the deaths of 3 Irish soldiers. Expect more of this when the generals and politicans get their way and participate in future wars on the side of the yankees and the Euro army against poor 3rd world countries. read full story / add a comment
