The Spanish have a word for it, they call it "callejera", it means street violence which includes arson, houses, businesses and cars get burnt. The Basque term is "kale borroka", its thought of as the lowest level of sustained urban unrest. The French today, look at their newspapers and see photos which usually they see in Iraq of cars in flames. But this time its "their cars", as their prime minister De Villepin assured the national assembly from the floor. They must be very re-assured. Even though he was never elected. One might have heard an artistocratic taunt hanging in the gilded air, "let them buy cars!". _______________________________________________ ... read full story / add a comment

In a significant shift, the Socialist Party of England and Wales has indicated that it will take part in or initiate a conference to bring together left and trade union activists to discuss the creation of a new broadly based workers party.

One morning my mother was in the basement feeding wet-washed clothes into the ringer when she paused to rest for a moment. With the ringer off she suddenly realised the house was quiet - unusually quiet. She took a careful look around and thoughtfully headed for the stairs. It was equally quiet in the kitchen. She moved more quickly now as she headed upstairs. The bedromms were empty but before climbing to the attic, she noticed the bathroom door was fully shut. Approaching, she thought she heard a noise. Trying the knob she found it locked. ... read full story / add a comment

Remember all of those who fell, be they Irish, Scottish, Welsh, English, Turkish, French, German Austrians, Russians or Anzacs. Wear a Peace Poppy. *************************************** The Royal Dublin Fusiliers at Gallipoli This is the first in a series of historic exhibitions at the Royal Hospital Kilmainham, relating to the history of the Royal Dublin Fusiliers. ... read full story / add a comment
