Paul Foot, who died last weekend, was one of the greatest socialist writers and orators of his generation, who inspired thousands of activists from the time he became a socialist in the early 1960s until the last week of his life. He was also a celebrated campaigning journalist, who supported workers in struggle and took up cases of wrongful imprisonment, bringing about the resignation of a Tory home secretary and helping to free many innocent people from jail.

Here are a few links to obituaries and appreciations of Paul.

As Israel seeks to consolidate its theft of the West bank, Gaza and Golan, it is increasingly using lies and lying in a radically new and innovative way. This new lying technique appears to have been developed in Israel in the early 1990's but has been perfected and used to its greatest effect by the American republican party over the past 5 years - particularly regarding its recent invasion of Iraq . ... read full story / add a comment

Government policy seems to boil down to a mish-mash of ideas about competition, privatisation - and really a dash of laissez-faire mentality about public services. However there seems to be a bit of old-fashioned loyalty to state enterprise and social policy generally. Have the PDs already produced - through their ally Charlie McCreevy - an irreversible and seismic shift in public policy. Or is the political pendulum beginning inexorably to swing back in the opposite direction? ... read full story / add a comment

An article in today's Guardian newspaper about a riot at the UK's worst immigration removal centre, the Harmondsworth conplex, begins with a passage which might tell us something about why people there are rioting: "The Home Office today promised a full investigation after the discovery of a hanged detainee led to a "serious disturbance" overnight at the country's largest immigration detention centre. The death was not thought to be suspicious, but staff at the Harmondsworth complex - near Heathrow airport, west London - were forced to withdraw for their own safety." ... read full story / add a comment
