The last century has been marked by the most explosive growth of pollution and production in the entire history of the humanity. The changes brought about by industrialisation under the economic system of capitalism have lead to a large number of systemic problems. Anarchist communism is in a unique position to solve these systemic problems. ... read full story / add a comment

Under the Residential Institutions Redress Act, 2002 the Irish Residential Institutions Redress Board came into being. I submit that Its conduct and operation constitutes a gross violation of National and International Human and Civil Rights.It encourages unscrupulous applicants and professional people to lie, conceal information and give false evidence in return for financial awards.It denies it's victims their right to innocence unless proved otherwise, and hides behind a wall of absolute secrecy. No person is safe from the Irish Redress Board. ... read full story / add a comment
A strategic interest enables your ultimate goal or agenda, and strategies are generalised plans to achieve these goals. A tactic is a specific tool to advance that agenda, using what you actually have right now - not what you think you ought to have. It's unwise for a democrat to confuse long-term strategies with short-term tactics. ... read full story / add a comment

The political climate inside Iran is now horrifically tense. Women, gay men and lesbians, students, workers; all are caught in the middle of the stand-off between the regime and imperialism. Arrests have increased and intimidation is rife. Any slight ‘disobedience’ of the theocratic regime is portrayed as a threat to state security. That is why principled solidarity is so necessary. We in HOPI are determined to show the reality behind the threat of war and to give practical and political suppor t. We are campaigning for trade union support and have a resolution which we would urge all activists to use. ... read full story / add a comment

We're told Lisbon is to make the EU efficient. Why then haven't the parliamentarians that want this efficiency reduced their numbers (to about 60 TDs in Ireland) to reflect the fact that two thirds (80% reported for Britain & Germany) of their law-making functions are already transferred to Europe. TDs are rapidly making themselves powerless, redundant, and sidelining democracy and the Constitution. ... read full story / add a comment

The purpose of the Lisbon Treaty research is to offer the voters of Ireland objective arguments on the Lisbon Treaty, with facts and evidence with substance, and an objective discussion of the legal, political, economical and social considerations of the Treaty. So far it has been only the No groups who presented quotes of the Lisbon Treaty, and only their arguments stand valid on the basis of the text itself and on the grounds of scientific facts. ... read full story / add a comment

“How do we move from here to the position of Ireland’s national independence with the essential unity of the country and its people achieved? How do we combat the threat to our separate identity so that we survive as a distinct people to cooperate with the former colonised nations and advance the cause of humankind in general?

The purpose of this article (see below the video) is to provide further support to the statement upheld by politicians, academic and legal experts that the Lisbon Treaty is a constitution. The emphasis on this fact is vital because from this fact it follows that the Lisbon Treaty needs referendum not only in Ireland but in all of the 27 EU member states. Because the Lisbon Treaty a constitution, it is crucial to understand that no constitution ever permits the act of overthrowing it, i.e never allows the act of replacing it with another one without the permission of a country's citizens. Therefore the ratification of the Lisbon Treaty without referendums in the other 26 states, is a dictatorial power-grab over Europe. (Please see the document referred at the end of the article.) With this article we wish to call Ireland to Vote NO to Lisbon Treaty! Vote NO to a constitution that establishes a dictatorial federal regime with powers over all Europe. ... read full story / add a comment

On May the Seventh 2008, the Houses in the UK will vote on a divisive Bill which has actively left women's rights and NGO groups out of the equation in relation to Choice and Healthcare issues. http://www.safeandlegal.blogspot.com The HFEB is called the Human Fertilisation and Embrology Bill.
