Trans 'allyship' was supposed to lead us all pliantly to accept that men can become women. Now that has failed, the velvet gloves are off to reveal iron fists. But violent threats won't work either, says Caroline Ffiske.

Why don't the English count as an ethnic minority in Wales and qualify for extra cash? Because they're white, says Steven Tucker. But the experience of the English in Wales gives us a picture of our UK-wide future.

Ireland: neo-liberalism's triumph

category international | anti-capitalism | other press author Tuesday January 15, 2008 22:28author by Cathal Lalor Report this post to the editors

The Wall Street Journal and the Heritage Foundation today released their so-called 'Index of Economic Freedom' for 2008. This index ranks countries according to how their institutions and policies facilitate the power of capital. Ireland is third, beaten only by the dictatorships of Hong Kong and Singapore. The dictatorship of the bourgeoisie and its rationalizing ideology,-neo-liberal economics-, has triumphed in Ireland. The developing societal breakdown is a measure of its success.
The other side of the coin is the dismal failure of the left.
