Following a week of mixed signals from the US Administration about the future of the Guantánamo Bay detention camp, Amnesty International said that the Administration's announcement that it is to expand the prison is the wrong decision and will fuel worldwide concern over the stories of torture and ill-treatment, religious humiliation and arbitrary detention that are seeping from the facility. ... read full story / add a comment

the newly appointed archibishop of York (one of the two post-Augustine sees of England) is John Sentamu. For yeah verily as we doth live in times of black popes, and good old fashioned fascist kathurlicks, the appointment of a Ugandan born former judge on the recommendation of "me missus has a mantilla" Tony "the antichrist" Blair, is newsworthy. ... read full story / add a comment

By ANDREW TAYLOR, Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON - In a slap at President Bush, lawmakers voted Wednesday to block the Justice Department and the FBI from using the Patriot Act to peek at library records and bookstore sales slips. The House voted 238-187 despite a veto threat from Bush to block the part of the anti-terrorism law that allows the government to investigate the reading habits of terror suspects. ... read full story / add a comment

It can be most interesting to look into how the various parties on the left are dictated to from above. In the first of a series of reports Masters Voice gives you the reader an opportunity to examine at first hand the dictates of the SWP leadership in London. As these dictates are not readily available to those outside the SWP inner circle here or those as Harman would describe footsoldiers I give you the first installment. ... read full story / add a comment

A May 31 report in the highly respected Mexican daily La Jornada stated that in late May 2005 Paraguay’s Congress rushed through a law “that will permit United States troops to enter this South American country for 18 months, with immunity for all personnel that participate in activities of training and advising, including civilian personnel.” Paraguay and Bolivia share a border. Given recent negative US government statements re Bolivia and its social movements – which are demanding complete nationalisation of country’s oil, gas and water – this is an ominous development.

Increasing numbers of young American children are showing signs of serious malnourishment, fueled by a greater prevalence of hunger in the United States, while, paradoxically, two-thirds of the US population is either overweight or obese. Some pediatricians worry that cuts in welfare aid proposed in President George W. Bush's 2006 budget will only exacerbate the situation. By contrast Bush plans to keep tax cuts for more affluent sectors of the population, they note. ... read full story / add a comment

The Alley Oop comic strip which continues to be distributed in hundreds of newspapers in the hinterland of the USA is daring to attack the Bush Regime (albeit without using the name). Alley Oop has gone political and poor Dr. Wonmug is under arrest as a terrorist by a "future" police state! ... read full story / add a comment
