I believe that popular resistance to the imposition of the neo-liberal
economic agenda is vital- whether one lives in Ireland or Bolivia. However,

Saw Doctors change their mind about the European Union
The band the Saw Doctors has changed their minds about the European Union. The band initially welcomed the EU to Galway in a massive advertisement at the Moneenageisha Roundabout. However, several days later, either they’ve been adbusted, or else the band have had a major change of heart; the poster now reads “The Saw Doctors Condemns the EU in Galway”. If the latter, this is welcome news. It is now also hoped that Macnas, Galway’s famous street performers will follow suit by having a protest instead of their planned performance for the EU ministers. ... read full story / add a comment

The Brit government through its prison officer lackeys continue to punish the current UDA loyalist paramilitary leadership, and its members in prison for daring to boot out their appointed stooge Johnny Adair. To this effect North belfast UDA leader Andre Shoukri is in solitary confinement and 24 hour lock down, flanked by armed prison officers in riot gear and ski masks, in what is seen by loyalist s as an attempt to break Andre Shoukri and pay retribution to the current UDA leadership for their stance in expelling the brit government's teachers pet C company. ... read full story / add a comment

Readers will naturally have noticed that Israel is taking up a lot of indymedia ireland space of late. They may be interested to know that the first statement of the Irish EU Presidency has been issued and it concerns Israel.
They might have realised that Israel is on our table, that we are knocking on the table and we are not going away.
This is part of what "european expansion" is about. ... read full story / add a comment
