“…another truth about fortress continents: being on the inside may be better than being locked out, but it's no guarantee of equal status.” - Naomi Klein. The existing policies of the Irish govt. to safeguard the rights of migrant workers and their families are "deficient and lacking in scope." - Human Rights Commission. The govt. says that the exploitation of migrant workers in Ireland is not a major problem, but this report reveals hidden levels of exploitation at the heart of our economy - including employers who are household names and considered "pillars" of their communities. - Prime Time Investigates, Monday, 26 April, RTE1, 9.30pm ... read full story / add a comment

As a freelance journalist with an interest in anti-globalisation issues, I wrote an article about the tabloid coverage and hype in the run-up to Mayday. Two of the Sunday broadsheets initially showed interest in it, but then rejected it upon reading it. I don't subscribe to the idea that all journalists are spineless etc. etc. etc.......... However, I do feel that it was a balanced article. Yet the media still wouldn't touch it. As a part of the media, I feel that there is the need for reasonable, sensible debate on the role the mainstream media plays, how it can be improved, and comments from other sections of the media would be a good start. ... read full story / add a comment

Many Irish people who wave Palestinian flags and march against Israeli brutality in the West Bank and Gaza believe quite rightly in my opinion that israel should withdraw from the West Bank and Gaza anbd Golan and remove Jewish settlements.

The government continues to spread insane scare stories about the Mayday protests and Gardai harassment of people publicising the events has stepped up. They want to scare you into staying at home.
