Mr Kammash and his sons ,who are still recovering from injuries inflicted on them , say they intend to take legal action against the British government for the abuse they suffered. read full story / add a comment

On the evening of the second of April there was a celebration of International Women's Day at the Unitarian Church at St Stephen's Green. Bertie had Just quit and as Jennifer Johnson noted there were a lot of 'drums', those of FF beating a retreat and of FG beating a tattoo. Medbh Mc Guckian referred to the fact that in Northern Ireland women can now buy 6,000 Euro handbags, but quality of life had not improved at all for many. But is was not all politics, it was about poetry and song. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/86960 read full story / add a comment

Like many sophisticated freethinkers & well honed intellectually rigorous atheists or agnostics, I've gone far past the stage of being fed up with the Capitalist system obliging me to holidays on the 25th of December, Easter, 17th of March & so on all the bloody year. I want to work 28 days straight and save up my "Sabbath" days & add them on to my statutory entitlements. I'm sick of being exploited by tourist agencies by a macro-cultural I'm sure most clever people like me, foam at the mouth of. read full story / add a comment

The PKK were included in 2002 on the list of terrorist organisations held by the EU. It's a long list. But the decision has now been anulled by the second highest judicial bench in Europe which sits in Luxembourg. There are complex (as always) reasons for this. Without going into it too much, & thus distracting you from reading the judgement in its entirety, I'd just mention the non-desirability of seeing a post-US occupied Iraq divided between Turkey and Iran after the former argued they were containing the PKK terrorists. read full story / add a comment

People who have spent long periods on neuroleptic medication are familiar with the deadening effect it produces, its effect on physical well-being. It requires the utmost in personal resources to maintain any kind of fulfilling or enjoyable lifestyle while taking these drugs. Proof of this is the widespread issue of non-compliance where mental patients are concerned. Plainly the main reason why mental patients resist taking prescribed medication is that all of the medications including newer ones like Risperdal are unpleasant and debilitating. read full story / add a comment

This is a very interesting 'theory' about the events concerning Politics.ie and Fianna Fail. http://skinflicks.blogspot.com/2008/03/politicsie-consp....html More Info on the situation here: http://www.stalltheball.com/index.php/2008/03/30/irelan...h_hah Have looked around and I would say this is having a significant chilling effect on public discussion of the tribunal on the web. Can't talk about it on politics.ie or boards.ie anymore Significantly the cache is still available on google of the original thread which staryed this off.

Peter Hadden examines what really happened in Gibraltar and the events that unfolded in its aftermath and how they exposed the bankruptcy of the Provisional IRA’s “armed struggle”. read full story / add a comment

This morning's London Independent headlines with the news that a Christian Evangelical Group had paid interns working in the offices of Ministers in the run-up to the Human Fertilisation and Embrology Bill*. This contentious Bill had sought to lump together the issues of Chimeric (human-animal) creation together with a new amendment to reduce the 24 week abortion limit . The Group: C.A.R.E. Christian Action, Research and Education had access all areas in the Commons and of course into research materials pertinent to the legislation. This prompts one question- Tony Blair had brought some of the biggest US Companies to the UK to work in the areas of genetic research (despite his personal Evangelicalism and recent conversion). So what are the Evangelicals so pissed off about? (Abortion rights)/HFE. read full story / add a comment

In this month's 'Irish Art Review', which is available online (it's a tenner a pop in the Newsagents) the editor discusses the current exhibition in Collin's Barracks and asks the question: 'Should not the Irish State give up to 50% of the pieces back, because they are colonial plunder' ? Its brief and I did not bring my copy, thus I cannot quote him verbatim.. The Natural History Museum remains closed since the staircase collapse last year, with rumblings in the media that the Senate will be expanded in there and kids are therefore limited in free access to their heritage, learning and study places. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/76354 read full story / add a comment
