offsite link ?Offensive? Christmas Songs Could Fall Victim to Labour?s Banter Ban Sun Dec 21, 2025 11:14 | Jonathan Barr

One year ago, Jan 27 2003, Willie O'Dea appeared on RTE 1's Questions and Answers. He was asked about the war and whether it was all about the oil.
He gave an interesting answer.

Keith Mc Henry one of the co-founders of Food Not Bombs visited Ireland. He gave a talk in Dublin, Belfast and joined us at the blockade in Shannon. The main lessons learned from the talk and videos shown was how far a simple idea like FNB could effect a city and the people that lived there, and could possibly be a concrete contribution to helping out the homeless situation in Irelands cities. read full story / add a comment

2003 saw a big upsurge in anarchist activity across the country. A small but growing number of anarchists are building opposition to the status quo based on the politics of freedom and equality. We want, and know it is possible, to create an alternative to the politics of bluff, lies and shady deals. Justice will not fall from the sky- it will have to be fought for here and now. That's why anarchists are involved in a wide range of campaigns and are active in the day-to-day struggles of our communities and in our workplaces. We also know that to build a different society requires imagination and initiative and so we are not content simply to criticise what is- over the past year we showed what can be achieved through grassroots democracy and direct action. read full story / add a comment

For the last few weeks I have been trying to save some farm land, which was left in a will for the community, from being sold off to property developers. I think its just a symptom of the current land and property crisis in Ireland.

(Note: What I am writing below is NOT part of the Airfield campaign. It’s a personal interest in understanding the madness that is the current property situation in Ireland.) read full story / add a comment

Left wing and right wingers who scream at each other about the Iraq war should sober up. It may well be that within the borders of nation states issues of law are in the camp of "right" and "wrong" but in the International stage there is no only "necessity." read full story / add a comment

Current trade negotiations between the USA and Australia shed some light on exactly how the EU Commission and the secretive EU 133 Committee view future international trade deals with regard to our (EU) public health systems.

Basically the USA is trying to force Australia into accepting that when the state bulk buys medicinal drugs it is acting illegally, distorting international trade and creating unnecessarily restrictive trade barriers.

The Australian state bulk buys the medicinal drugs so that it can provide them free and/or sell them cheap to the Australian public.

How did I find this out? Why does it show the way for the Antidemocratic Proposed EU Constitution? Read on ... read full story / add a comment
