At Tommy?s Carols Tue Dec 16, 2025 15:30 | Chris Larkin
Tommy Robinson's Whitehall Christmas carol service was met with a chorus of pre-condemnation from C of E bishops. But Chris Larkin came away impressed, uplifted and encouraged. Tommy is taking his new faith seriously.

Brace Yourselves Once Again for the Mask Madness Tue Dec 16, 2025 13:29 | Dr Gary Sidley
The mask mafia is back. The UK faces "a tidal wave" of 'super flu' and people must "get back into the habit" of mask-wearing, says one senior NHS mandarin. We have one defence, says Dr Gary Sidley: do not comply.

Heroic Muslims Are Not the ?Antidote? to Islamist Terror Tue Dec 16, 2025 09:15 | Steven Tucker
After the awful massacre of Jews on Bondi beach, far too many commentators focused on the actions of the heroic Muslim who tackled one gunman. Heroic Muslims are not the "antidote" to Islamist terror, says Steven Tucker.

The EU?s Climate Targets Will Not Last Long Now Tue Dec 16, 2025 07:00 | Ben Pile
The EU's rollback of its petrol and diesel car ban is just the start of the bloc's retreat from Net Zero, says Ben Pile. Emissions reduction targets may remain in place for now, but don't imagine they will last long.

Jump To Comment: 5 4 3 2 1Noam Chomsky offering support to the nine men, five of them supporters of Republican terrorism.
The world has finally gone mad.
What's exciting about Ireland today (looking in from the outside) is the apparent willingness of different styles of peace activist to forgive and tolerate each other, thus making space for both radical and mainstream contributions.
Of course Chomsky is widely attacked and discredited by many forces - in the same way that Martin Luther King was, that Kathy Kelly is, and that any activists who makes a strong stand will be.
Our job is to keep thinking for ourselves - to NOT get caught up in silly "you're not perfect so I can ignore you" games, and continue to build a vibrant and active culture of peace-making.
Congratulations Derry 9. Good job. Appropriate target. Great courage.
The Derry 9 are an inspiration! Here in the U$, back in the 60s, it used to be called trashing. I think we need much more trashing of corporate and government property. The capitalists and militarists are destroying people in their wars, repressing resistance, and stealing the world's wealth, concentrating it to smaller elites. Let a thousand Derrys spread around the globe!
Chomsky's support is no surprise but nevertheless it's great to hear it.
I just want to express my solidarity to the Raytheon 9. Very brave action, especially in the context of the type of 'justice' system they are facing across the border.
Shameful lack of mainstream media coverage of the action here. As the standoff was happening it was very difficult to get any information about what was going on. Most activists were reliant on texts and e-mails from people, and of course on Indymedia. Thanks to those who kept everyone informed.
Chomsky's support is hardly a surprise but great to hear nonetheless! He understands the need for diversity of tactics. Always has, and he understands the role of non-violent direct action in political struggle.
Solidarity greetings to the Raytheon Nine, especially to the man left inside!
