At the European Social Forum in Florence in November 2002 a debate emerged within the alter-globalisation movement over whether building opposition to Bush’s global war was a diversion from opposing corporate globalisation. The debate - in terms of developing a strategy for the movement - is centred on identifying the key issue or challenge that the movement should focus on. This is an essential task if the movements are to win and not just oppose or resist. read full story / add a comment

"In eunte Verae" (if I remember correctly from my schooldays) is a Latin tag which means "With the coming of Spring." The weather has been kind and growth is in the air. But what I hunger for is political growth. Will the Progressive Democrats national conference bring change or will it be, politically, another lost opportunity - another stale affair? read full story / add a comment

Just watched a very interesting video from 'Anarchists Against the Wall' an Israeli group that pulls down/breaks open the apatheid barrier being built with the help of CRH amongst others. It covers the events of 26 Dec 2003 when one of their memebrs was shot in both legs by the IDF but more interesting the media reaction that followed and why this first shooting of an Israeli from a Jewish background by the IDF provoked such a storm. Very interesting in light of the reaction here to plans to pull down the fence at Shannon earlier in the same year. read full story / add a comment

Just in case you thought they had gone all soft and cuddly, heres an article from the current edition of the CPI publication 'Socialist Voice' justifying the Hitler-Stalin pact! Of course if you dare mention Stalin's crimes you are either a right-wing stooge or worse still an 'ultra-left'. Looking forward to their justification of the Moscow Showtrials.

The increased funding of an Airline which is already very successful,is possibly a repeat of the Air Lingus story.
Two heavily susidised entities,Irish rail and a local airline are in direct competition with each other,and as business flows to the private airline,our national rail system will require more and more taxpayers funding. read full story / add a comment

I find myself thinking of Kenya’s tsunami victim. That’s right: victim, singular, no “s” on the end. He was Samuel Njoroge, a car mechanic from Nairobi, who was making his first ever visit to the East African coast. “He was very excited about the prospects of going to the beach and learning how to swim,” said his father. He picked the wrong day. read full story / add a comment

Despite efforts by many around the world to rise above sectarianism in the face of the USA's raw imperialism, Walden Bello, a prominent critic of neo-liberalism, has launched an international distancing campaign against the Communist Party of the Philippines and the democratic sectoral movements which draw political inspiration from them. Claiming that the CPP's military wing has targeted him with a “hit list,” which in fact is a mere diagram showing the international linkages of various Phillipino parties and individuals, Bello is playing a dangerous game. Included on the diagram is Bello's Akbayan parlimentary party. read full story / add a comment

The only vaguely democratic institution in the EU, the european parliament, has repeatedly and firmly rejected software patents (or "computer implemented inventions" in Newspeak). But the European Commission and Council, spurred on by none other than our old pal McGreevy, is still trying to introduce a new law that would hand the european software industry to multinationals, mainly Microsoft and IBM, on a plate, in a sickening little "What's good for Microsoft is good for Ireland" show. read full story / add a comment
