offsite link Record 111,000 Claims From Asylum Seekers in Labour?s First Year Thu Aug 21, 2025 19:04 | Toby Young
Applications for asylum were up 14% on the previous 12 months after a surge in migrants reaching Britain in small boats, according to official figures. So much for Labour's promise to "smash the gangs".

Just 58.3% of all pupils across the UK passed their maths GCSE this year, down from 59.5% last year and the lowest since 2013. But the percentage of students getting the highest grades was higher in free schools than other schools.

It is simplistic to blame the recent spike in wildfires on climate change, writes Paul Homewood. A more likely cause is the rewilding of uplands, supposedly to cut carbon emissions, and poor management of forested land.

Lucy Connolly's jail sentence versus Ricky Jones's acquittal shows not two-tier justice but two-tier laws ? the system worked as intended, says Nick Rendell.

The Guardian, of all papers, has acknowledged that predictions about the disappearance of Arctic sea ice may ? just may ? have been exaggerated. Paging Gore Vidal: Can we have that prize back please?

Labour Youth calls for Nationalisation of Corrib Gas

category mayo | environment | press release author Friday February 23, 2007 14:47author by LabourYouth Report this post to the editors

Labour Youth calls for Nationalisation of Corrib Gas In advance of a national Shell to Sea demonstration taking place on Saturday Labour Youth has called for the government to nationalise the Corrib Gas. The demonstration begins at 2pm at the Garden of Remembrance in Parnell Square and a large turnout of Labour Youth activists is expected.

Speaking in advance of the demonstration Patrick Nulty Labour Youth Chair stated that:

"The Corrib gas which was given away to Shell for free must immediately be returned to the Irish people, so that cheap and affordable gas can be supplied to Irish homes. At the same time the profits from the gas sales could be used to end hospital waiting lists, deliver free GP care and be invested in education.

"Labour Youth is calling for an immediate withdrawal of the heavy Garda presence from the Erris area. These gardai should be redeployed to communities where they are both wanted and needed to work with people on the ground to protect their interests

– rather than protecting the interests of multi-nationals like Shell.
