offsite link European Gas Prices Are Rising Again Wed Feb 12, 2025 09:00 | Noah Carl
European gas prices recently went above ?58 per megawatt hour ? the equivalent of $100 per barrel of oil. This is "absolutely destructive for energy-intensive manufacturing", in the words of one industry analyst.

Millions of pounds of taxpayers' money end up in the coffers of Left-wing think tanks each year, says Charlotte Gill. Isn't it about time we turned the tables and asked: "Who funds you?!"

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.

offsite link 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.

An International week in solidarity with Iranian Workers is being organised for November 24-30, 2007. This action is support of the Iranian People and against the Capitalist Iranian Government but is also against the US Capitalist Warmongers.

The recent wave of oppression against activists of workers' organizations in Iran and other social movements is not a new incident but a routine practice of the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI). This wave of repression nevertheless has caused the radicalization and development of class-based labour protests. These conditions have jeopardized the entirety of Islamic Republic of Iran. Social and economic crises are rapidly escalating. It is a proven fact that the promises of the capitalist regime of Iran are false and that this regime has brought nothing but the continuous oppression of working people. This regime has caused ever-increasing poverty and misery for working class. ... read full story / add a comment

16 Day Campaign

The Sixteen Day Campaign for stopping Violence Against Women is set for the 25th November
to the Tenth of December 2007. Lip Service and Tokenism abound here, but it is a period
that internationally women address Safety, Violence, Rape, Women's Aid and of course, how
our divided societies create a wealth class of pseudo-feminism and an opposing class
of community activism based wholly in gendered stereo-typing and money, or to be politically
correct about it how we make our daughters second class citizens by ignoring their Basic Rights.

'Particiaptory democracy' is not something we have heard much of from Labour over the last decade or two. Interesting therefore that the term should fetch up in arch pragmatist and moderniser Fergus Finlay's Irish Examiner column today. The piece was a kind of starting shot for the Labour Party conference taking place this coming weekend. ... read full story / add a comment

Delaram Ali, a Womens rights activist has been sentenced to be flogged and to serve 34 months in prison. Her "crime: demonstrating for womens Rights.

Delaram Ali has been told to present herself to court in order to start serving a prison sentence which has not formally been conveyed to her. She has been told that if she does not attend court by 10 November, she will be arrested.

There is also a risk that she will be flogged. If she is detained, Amnesty International would consider her to be a prisoner of conscience, detained solely for the peaceful exercise of her right to freedom of expression and association for her activities promoting women’s rights in Iran. The Head of the Judiciary has the power to suspend Delaram Ali’s sentence and to order a reinvestigation of the case. ... read full story / add a comment
