The couple who filmed 'Sophie of Dundee' as she brandished a knife and axe, seemingly in self-defence, have been charged by police. Shame on the centrist commentators who piled on her, says Laurie Wastell.

Octopus CEO Greg Jackson has blamed Ed Miliband's "broken energy system" for Britain's sky-high energy costs. Too right, says Paul Homewood. So why does he still back renewables?

One pub is closing every day. And Labour's 'banter ban' ? Clause 20 of the Employment Rights Bill ? is only going to make it worse as pubs are left with the escalating bills to cover their legal costs.

Ben Ansell, in Why Politics Fails, outlines "five traps of the modern world and how to escape them". Professor James Alexander wonders how he can escape yet another book that tries to save the world with Left-wing dogma.

Since being elected in 1997 Joe Higgins, the Socialist Party TD, has been involved in the anti-war movement, the Shell to Sea campaign at went to prison for his role in the anti-bin tax campaign. He also was involved in the GAMA workers strike.

Even ‘the Star’ said “He is the opposition”. Also Labour’s leader Pat Rabbitte commented: "If I was a constituent I would rather have 1 Joe Higgins fighting my corner than all 5 Sinn Fein TDs".

->A Workers’TD on a Workers’Wage
Joe has used his position in the Dail to assistworker’s and young people’s struggles, no to enrich himself like the so mmany other TDs. He lives on the average industrial wage, donating the rest to the Socialis Party and community campaigns.

->No Big Business Donations
Whilst the other parties get huge donations and ‘loans’ from big business, land speulators, construction companies and the like, the Socialist Party do not. We rely completely on the support of ordinary working people.

If you want to make sure Joe Higgins keeps his seat and is joined by more socialists in the next Dail come along and enjoy the pub quiz or consider making a donation.
