The Sunday Independent (the weekend organ of the Independent Newspaper group, famously run by industry boss William Martin Murphy, leader of the attempt to break the unions in the 1913 Lockout immortalised in Strumpet City) has two copies of the same story sandwiching a fulminating opinion piece about the IRA. The two working titles show an indecision as to whether or not the IRA should be implicated directly in alleged threats against Shell/Statoil or not. Make up your mind editors. Do you dare to tell a blatant lie or not? ... read full story / add a comment

Over the years Hiphop Kulture has constantly remained under attack by the main cultures of the world who fear the loss of control over the new emerging generations. From the early Emcees and Deejays who were arrested during the park jams to the early Breakers who too were arrested for dancing on the streets; to the new “Hiphop Task Forces” monitoring Hiphoppas in the same way they monitor street gangs; and the recent attempts by some countries to ban “repetitive beats” and the wearing of hoodies. ... read full story / add a comment

Cynically using the sense of grief and determination to face down the bombers, Blair has rushed in to argue that the ‘Iraq war had nothing to do with the events of 7/7’. Ken Livingstone and eminent ‘Islamic scholars’ in The Independent all agree with Blair’s arguments. However, this was not the view of the government’s own Joint Intelligence Committee.. ... read full story / add a comment
