WORKERS SUSPENDED AS GOVERNMENT WEIGH IN AGAINST STRUGGLE FOR FAIR PAY As we go to press Government and bosses have made good their threats of disciplinary action against workers fighting for an end to poverty pay in the Civil Service. Seven workers – all from the same department have been suspended for taking part in a work to rule. Four of the seven are shop stewards. This is clearly an attempt to break the union, NIPSA, and the resolve of its members in the CSA. ... read full story / add a comment

Many of you believe that this resolution is crucial in the Palestinian conflict, however you have voted on it without consulting with the Friends of Palestine. It may have been that you were busy in the preparation for Geneva Accords while voting for this resolution. It may be that now you will doubt your vote. The resolution that you have supported violates the basic legitimate Palestinians rights to “terminate the occupation”, and the right of return, which is recognized under international law ... read full story / add a comment

The Pentagon is saying in the report printed below that world capitalism is going to be thrown into severe crisis by the developing environmental catastrophe. For all activists, and for the working class in general, this is the most important report to be made available to us in decades. We all have a duty to read and study it and to draw the political and organizational conclusions from it. ... read full story / add a comment

While working on material concerning racism in the media, I found that nowhere on the internet could I get a copy of Mary Ellen Synon's infamous article she wrote in 1996 concerning Travellers. This article achieved a new low in standards of journalism in Ireland. Four years later, the same writer managed to offend all but Kevin Myers when she wrote about the athletes in the Special Olympics. I have scanned the 1996 article into our own web site for reference. Below is the text. ... read full story / add a comment

As the 'peace process' hits yet another brick wall, the rise of racism in the north is viewed by some as the price we will have to pay for 'normalisation', as though the blow-torch of sectarian invective will simply switch its focus on another set of blameworthies, marked out as somehow 'different'. ... read full story / add a comment

All fraudulent laws are created, as they were in the time of Mussolini and elsewhere, to be "for our protection". How many know of Hitler's "concerned" and "wholesome" anti-smoking" policies? ... read full story / add a comment

psychiatry's answer to mental health problems is psychiatric drugs which they believe help to correct the 'patient's' brain chemistry or bio-chemical imbalance. Critical psychiatry seeks a more holistic approach seeing personal/interpersonal, social and environmental contexts as the origins of severe mental distress. Psychiatric drugs with their damaging effects on the individual and the genetic hypothesis that psychiaty operates behind have failed and must be replaced with a new social and holistic model which can truly help people. ... read full story / add a comment |
