The BBC's Director of Comedy wants to "save the sitcom". But the sitcom is only endangered because most of them stopped being funny. As To the Manor Born reminds us, British comedy has lost its class, says Finlay McLaren.

Is the era of cheap internet surveys over? A new paper demonstrates that AIs can now be "trivially programmed" to answer online surveys in ways that are essentially indistinguishable from humans.

We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

Sinn Fein say no war but the Class War : Call for a left alliance

category national | politics / elections | news report author Thursday September 25, 2003 16:02author by bluther lisset Report this post to the editors

This is cut and paste from Examiner.ie - a great replacement for the fondly remembered free access to the IT. www.examiner.ie. And I beg the censors to leave this here as it is obviously a very important story to many who use IMC. Is this the beginning of the end of Civil War politics? Is Labour in the right list? How do the Greenies with their bizzare idea of a flat rate tax for all fit in?

SF calls for left-wing alliance to oppose FF-PD-FG axis

Sinn Féin has called for a new alliance of left-wing parties in the Dáil to form an opposition to the policies of Fianna Fáil, the Progressive Democrats and Fine Gael.

Party spokesman Caoimhghin O’Caolain said he wanted Sinn Féin, the Labour Party, the Green Party, the Socialist Party and other left-wing independents to join forces and co-ordinate their policies.

He also criticised Labour Party leader Pat Rabbitte for persisting with the idea of a coalition with Fine Gael.

"If we look again at Enda Kenny’s recent pronouncement in relation to benchmarking, how can the Labour Party be aligning itself with those views?" Mr O’Caolain asked. "We need to be giving an opposition not only to Fianna Fáil and the PDs, but the Fianna Fáil-PD-Fine Gael axis in Leinster House."
