100 years ago Belfast saw the first big battle between the working and employing classes in Ireland. The dockers' and carters' strike was the spark which lit a fire of working class militancy. Workers were flexing their muscle, Catholic and Protestant were uniting, 'Larkinism' was giving the bosses nightmares. Even the police got caught up in the new mood and mutinied. read full story / add a comment

The nurses’ work-to-rule and their threat to escalate the action has been met with an outraged onslaught by Mary Harney and Bertie Ahern. The sight of a group of workers standing up and demanding their rights has become so unusual that it seems as if the government cannot believe the temerity of the nurses in doing just that. read full story / add a comment

The May and June AGM period of Shell Annual meetings in London and Amsterdam should be the specific annual period where the focus should be on giving the Irsh public factual and visual information on the record of Shell worldwide as it struggles to find its feet in Irish waters.This should be the goal in every activity during this period so that people come to know once again why there is opposition to Shell in Mayo, and Ireland is in union with other Shell- suffering comminities who will be making their voices heard at this time. At the very least lots of placard information and messages. read full story / add a comment

The mainstream radio stations are covering the announcement by an t'Uachtaran of the referral of the Criminal Laws 2007 to the Council Of State, if agreement is not reached then the matter gets referred to the Supreme Court. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/82244 http://www.indymedia.ie/article/82176 The last act of the Present Minister for Justice was to appoint a number of new Judges. The Irish Times, surprisingly are leading with an exclusive with photo of Minister Mc Dowell stating that the PD's have secured further revelations of Taoiseach Ahern's finances and were reflecting on their position with regard to coalition. read full story / add a comment

We need TV naturally to embrace news and what is happening around us. We also need radio but Liveline this week was a complete sham. Joe with the ego (Bottler)and Williams (the great man of fiction on Irish Gangland). We all know what happened when a prisoner phoned from a cell in Portlaoise. I personally believe RTE have broken the law on this occasion. How can we have a prisoner in Portlaoise taking the airways and making threats. read full story / add a comment

You may well be chuckling to yourself at the notion that men could be victims of domestic violence at all but the ever-increasing incidence of abuse against men in the home and the media’s subconscious conspiracy to keep this very real issue hidden might well surprise you. read full story / add a comment

I always had an interest in Irish History and many summers ago I spent time travelling around Ireland viewing old graveyards. I recall being below in West Cork and old farmer brought me to view three unmarked graves on his land. They were three old IRA men shot by the Tans in 1921. The farmer had written their names on three pieces of wood. I walked through Letterfrack and I wondered if the rumours were true of the unmarked graves of little children. These children most likely died violently at the hands of Church and State. Some old men in small towns told me that if the secrets were unfolded, that Ireland was awash with babies left in bogs, and lakes. He said they not only drowned pups at that time, they drowned little children too. That men spoke to me in West Mayo. read full story / add a comment

The best speech in the house of eunuchs, otherwise known as the Dail was that given by Joe Higgins who alluded to the Poodles pissing against the lamp-posts in Dublin 6W upon which Minister Mc Dowell was hanging his posters. So we are into another election. therefore we can rest and enjoy the party. it is the only time when the TD's get down and dirty with the voters to justify a few more years lining the pockets and briefcases of their nearest and dearest. read full story / add a comment

DO YOU remember when we voted to give away the €51 billion Corrib gas field to Shell and Statoil? No, well maybe you remember the day we voted to join the Iraq war by allowing US warplanes to re- fuel at Shannon? Or the time we voted to give tax breaks to private hospitals for the rich? It’s amazing how few decisions we are allowed to take. We do get to vote in the very occasional referendum and about a dozen general elections in an average lifetime, and that’s it. read full story / add a comment

This year marks the 300th anniversary of the occupation of the Catalan Countries by the Spanish State following the battle of Almansa in 1707. This date cannot be easily forgotten as both the national and social oppression by the Spanish State over the Catalan Countries still continues. read full story / add a comment

“The State guarantees in its laws to respect, and, as far as practicable, by its laws to defend and vindicate the personal rights of the citizen”. Constitution of Ireland - Bunreacht na h-Eireann, Article 40.3.1. The wide-spread and systematic corruption of Gardaí that has been exposed in this country might lead us to believe that we should be entering a new era of accountability. No, far from it, the opposite is true. That new era began last October 2006 and continues now with the practical ongoing training and conditioning of hundreds of Gardaí at Bellanaboy, to the use of violence over the rule of law. In that context of institutionalised Garda violence, I‘d hope that this article could go some way in empowering you to adopt the policy of: Never cooperating with the Gardaí unless ... 1) You have been informed of a reason why they suspect you of committing an offence, or 2) You are being assaulted by them and/or threatened with fear for your personal safety or your life. read full story / add a comment

This article consists of notes for a guest lecture in NUI Maynooth on the anti-war movement in Ireland at its highpoint between September 2002 and March 2003. The focus is on the use of direct action in opposition to the use of Shannon airport for re-fuelling by the American military, and the different arguments within the anti-war movement in favour of, or against, the direct action tactic. read full story / add a comment |
