The technocrats are falling across the West as their ideology founders on reality. The cracking of the Net Zero consensus, like the end of Lysenkoism in the Soviet Union, is a moment of hope, says Dr Tilak Doshi.

Ógra Shinn Féin recruit extensively

Ógra Shinn Féin's Sheena Campbell Cumann held a successful recruitment day at Queens last Wednesday during the Freshers Fayre. While College Cumanns in the University of Ulster were being actively banned by censorship placed on political parties, Queens student union was a bustle of political activity with Ógra Shinn Féin recruiting extensively.

Senior party members Gerry Kelly, Martina Anderson and Eibhlin Glenholmes turned up at various times throughout the day to help Ógra with the recruitment drive. The results at the end of the day were beyond the Cumanns expectations with over 90 people signing up to join the Cumann and 185 people signing the Suicide Prevention Petition, even Alliance Party leader David Forde signed it, after some persuasion and debate!

Speaking on behalf of the Sheena Campbell Cumann Caoimhe Crossan said, “the interest today has been fantastic, with lots of people signing up to join the Cumann, it will be interesting to see how many people attend our first meeting next week, but we are hopeful that out of the 90 people who gave their details many should return and become activists. The petition was also very well supported, we had targeted to get 100 signatures and ended up with 185 so all in all it was a very successful day for us.”

This success shows the need for all activists to protest at the censorship placed on parties by the University of Ulster. If a similar number of people could be recruited in each of the UU campuses then the number of Ógra activists in the Colleges would see a rapid increase. We must oppose this ban and call for it to be removed before next year’s fayre.

* FIGHT THE BAN *

* END CENSORSHIP IN THE UNIVERSITY OF ULSTER! *
