Any Electrician Knows that Lego Bricks are Genderless, Not ?Heteronormative? Tue Feb 11, 2025 20:00 | Will Jones
Any electrician knows that Lego bricks are genderless, not 'heteronormative', because each can 'mate' with any other. Perhaps Science Museum staff should study to be electricians and actually make themselves useful.

Why All Parents Should Protest Against the Children?s Wellbeing and Schools Bill Tue Feb 11, 2025 18:14 | Elizabeth Dulley
Any parent can currently withdraw their child from school if they're unhappy. Labour's Schools Bill ends that right for many, giving local authorities a veto. That's why all parents should protest against this state power grab.

The Covid Inquiry Calling the Vaccines ?Safe and Effective? is Like the Post Office Inquiry Calling ... Tue Feb 11, 2025 13:01 | Ben Kingsley and Molly Kingsley
The Covid Inquiry's presumption that the vaccines were safe and effective is like the Post Office Inquiry presuming that Horizon was reliable, say Ben Kingsley and Molly Kingsley. It compromises the entire enterprise.

national / rights, freedoms and repression Wednesday May 03, 2006 - 14:10 by Shell to Sea  1 image
The Irish government's report on how the Rossport pipeline scheme is completely safe is due today.
A casual observer might ask when the report finally sees the light of day:
If there are genuine questions about the safety of the high-pressure scheme as Shell proposed to build it last year, then weren't the Rossport Five justified to protest against it?
So will the government be making a formal apology to the five men, and compensating them for their imprisonment?
Will Shell be censured for their conduct?
Of course not. This report will come out, say the pipeline was safe as proposed, but with a few cosmetic changes it will be even safer (the gas will still be raw, untreated, odourless, and high pressure). The economics will still be the same (Nigeria gets a better deal from Shell on their natural resources). So the Irish people will still get nothing for letting a multi-national destroy a community.
Let's hope Noel Dempsey realises that the pipeline will never be built, so the time to get out is BEFORE the election.

Here is a story about Gareth Jones who exposed a famine in Stalins Soviet Union which killed up to 10 million people. It was a manmade famine caused by Stalins insane purging of the Kulaks and the creation of agricultural "plans" which had set dates for planting and harvesting regardless of local conditions or the state of the crops. ... read full story / add a comment
