ONE-SIDED REPORT OF CASE INVOLVING JUDGE Yesterday, 29 April, the report of a case for defamation in several national newspapers failed to cover in a fair manner much of what happened in Dublin Circuit Court on Monday but gave a one-sided account which favoured the Plaintiff (a Judge) and denied the Defendant fair reportage. Journalist Ray Managh wrote a lopsided piece pubished in most morning newspapers in one form or another. In all cases the reports make no mention of the case for the Defence but recount at length much of tthe Presiding Judge's remarks and the Prosecution's case. This report tries to redress the balance in the interests of fair reportage. Any errors are regretted and are entirely the reponsibility of this author ... read full story / add a comment

2008/04/29 The leaders of the Alliance for Workers Liberty (AWL) argue socialists should not fight for the withdrawal of US/UK troops from Iraq and Afghanistan. They claim that were the occupation to end immediately the Iraqi labour movement would be annihilated by reactionary Islamic forces. At a recent AWL day school, leading member Mark Osborne specifically claimed that the movement behind cleric Muqtada Al Sadr had a policy of "killing trade unionists". Curious to know whether there was any truth in this claim Simon Hardy contacted Iraqi exile and academic Sami Ramadani, from Iraq Occupation for Focus, for his thoughts. Sami replied quickly, exploding the argument of the AWL that the occupying forces provide any cover for the Iraqi labour movement. With thanks to Sami, we publish his reply here. ... read full story / add a comment
