Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4Just in case people are a mite confused, I have NOT joined the IAWM! Truth be told, I'm a bit baffled by the reference to me as a spokesperson for the IAWM because when the journalist spoke to me (on two occasions), I made it clear that I represented Anti-War Ireland.
Anyway, it's not a major issue. The really important thing is that the misuse of Shannon airport continues to be covered by the British press. The more international coverage this gets, the better.
Good post Fintan - and don't worry. It happened to many of us - accused that we are, supposedly, spokespeople for this or that when we are only offering our own personal opinion. However, as we continue to work together, the day may come that the Anti-War Network may teach us to overome the disease of the CAPITAL LETTERS and work hand in hand and shoulder to shoulder to stop our country's collaboration with the Empire.
Keep up the good work my friend.

Are the trade unions ever likely to take a stand on Shannon?
The trade union beau-ocracy are too busy selling out the working class at the 'partnership' talks. Don't think they've ever said anything meaningful about shannon.
