We were assured by Conservative and Labour politicians that the Online Safety Act was designed to protect children. In the last few days, its real, more sinister purpose has become, writes Andrew Doyle.

Edinburgh University's 'Decolonised Transformations: Confronting the University of Edinburgh?s History and Legacies of Enslavement and Colonialism,' is Left-wing politics of the worst kind, says Professor James Alexander.

Trump was right to skewer Starmer over Britain's "windmills scam" when he met him in Scotland this week, says Ben Pile. It was a cringefest worthy of The Office, but Starmer can't afford to ignore the President?s warning.

Indymedia Film Night: Friend or Foe @ the Connolly Room, Liberty Hall

category dublin | worker & community struggles and protests | event notice author Wednesday March 29, 2006 16:46author by IMC Ireland Report this post to the editors

Film starts at 7pm. Admission only €5. Full bar afterwards.

The first in a series of Indymedia film nights in association with SIPTU.

Indymedia and SIPTU present "Friend or Foe", the opening film for a monthly screening night (on the last Thursday of the month in Liberty Hall).

Friend or Foe documents the bitter struggle of contracted workers at KT (Korean Telecommunication) against globalisation. Under the imperatives of structural adjustment, KT forced workers to work under "non-regular" contracts at lower pay, heightened job insecurity and limited legal protection vis-à-vis regularly employed workers. When the company announced its new "downsizing" plan in 2000, they fired 7,000 contract workers. The targeted workers launched a new union and waged a bitter struggle. Friend or Foe exposes the serious situation imposed by globalisation on workers compelled to accept temporary status and provides critical analysis of the weaknesses of the current labour movement. Directed by award-winning female director Jiyoung Lee, who won the Best Documentary prize at the 2002 Pusan International Film Festival.

Admission is only €5. Film starts at 7pm. Duration 89 minutes. Korean with English subtitles.

Please come and support Indymedia Ireland.

This is a great initiative. It is not known about very much in SIPTU. Even some SIPTU friends of Indymedia didn't know about it. Get the advance timetable out to the Branches and the activists. Give more notice next time. Great stchuff! Great potential.

Going blind. It's on in April not March. SBT. So plenty of time after all. Now we can get the word around. Sooooo excited!

At this stage now I've seen countless activist and struggle type films, the narrative structure of which rarely wavers from the standard. I saw Friend or Foe about a year ago, and its amazing, a real breath of fresh air. The Korea Telecom workers commitment, methods (wait til you see their "Project @" action!!) and dedication is truly inspirational. The film has just the right mix of workers issues and direct action... looking forward to seeing it again.

The Revolt Video Collective will be presenting a short documentary on the anti war protests around the 1916 commemoration before the main feature of Friend or Foe.

We hope you can make it down.

Hi all,
Since we're on the subjects of films, I recently completed my WTO docu when the party came to Hong Kong in December last year.
