Encouraging students to get involved in politics, representation, activism and campaigning is a funny business. In an ideal, perfect situation, you wouldn't have a division between encourager and encouragee; no-one should need to drum up interest among others or to have a position of 'managing' student involvement. But we don't live in that world, and it's perfectly usual to see students' unions, political 'youth wings', campaign groups and so on trying to encourage 'others' to get involved. read full story / add a comment

"If local people cannot have an input into the planning process, they will see their local councillors as being irrelevant." (Deputy Jimmy Deenihan T.D.) read full story / add a comment

The right wing media in Britain reacted with predictable fury at
Loach’s treatment of the Irish war of independence in his prize winning film ,The Wind That Shakes The Barley .The Times compared Loach unfavourably to Hitler’s favourite director, Leni Riefenstahl ;the liberal press - again predictably- took the view that the film was one-sided in its anti-British stance .
In this Guardian interview Loach defends his film from liberal and tory critics alike .
