The Biden administration's simulated reality has collapsed under the weight of its own hubris, leaving behind a Trumpian order that, despite its flaws, is refreshingly human and real, says Mary Harrington in UnHerd.

My father is a calm man, a good thing in a Dad. In the very few arguments I have had with him in my life, he only got upset once. The disagreement was about health and disease. Advancing health and curing disease had been his life's work. He had gratefully watched the dminishing of the old contagious diseases and here I was telling him they were being replaced by chronic disorders and new contagious diseases. But my Dad is an honest and inquiring man and he accepted my challenge. One evening he and my mother systematically reviewed our family medical history. read full story / add a comment

The ICTU has agreed that any new social partnership agreement should run for up to ten years. This would lock the trade unions into the restrictions, delaying procedures, peace clauses, ‘verifications’ and binding arbitration of partnership agreements for ten long years. It would extend the decline of the movement under partnership (now heading for a density of one in five in the private sector). It would keep our unions in partnership with the rich and powerful until 2016. This at a time when we are undergoing, in the words of SIPTU’s Jack O’Connor, the most serious attack on trade union rights and conditions since the Second World War. It is a time for the fighting spirit of the 9th December Irish Ferries march, not the acquiescence of social partnership read full story / add a comment

The battle by the community in Rossport Co. Mayo to prevent Shell from riding roughshod over their rights and safety shot to national prominence late last year when 5 local men (who became known as the Rossport 5) spent over 3 months in jail. The men were imprisoned for protesting against attempts by Shell to bring a high-pressure gas pipeline across their lands in close proximity to their homes. read full story / add a comment

international / rights, freedoms and repression / opinion/analysis Tuesday February 21, 2006 22:01 by Gerbil 001
Don’t feel ashamed if you’ve never heard of the ‘Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill’ currently traversing the Commons. A newspaper database search reveals only 46 mentions of the Bill’s title for the past twelve months – several of which were in such popular journals as Cabinet Maker and Building Design. None of these 46 mentions, incidentally, is earlier than January of this year. The Bill was formerly known as the ‘Bill for Better Regulation’, the title under which it was announced in the Queen’s Speech of May 2005 (there are four additional mentions under this title). It is only in the last few weeks that the bill has had even scant attention in the press. This is something of a shame since, arguably, the Bill is the first step to abolishing the last remnants of parliamentary democracy in Great Britain. read full story / add a comment

Being a resident of the Liberties, getting accepted into the National College of Art and Design was a wonderful thing. Not only is it one of the top colleges of Ireland but it is a ten minute journey from my house each morning. NCAD has been one of the main landmarks of the Liberties since it moved there in 1980. However, if the plans of the college director go ahead it will be moving to the cultural wasteland of UCD's Belfield campus. The move to UCD is opposed by staff and students alike in both of the colleges. read full story / add a comment
