Thirty Left-wing MPs have written to Ofcom to press it to censor X under the Online Safety Act. The evidence of 'hate' on the platform is threadbare, but it's obvious why they want to clip its wings, says Laurie Wastell.

BROAD REMIT AT CELTIC LEAGUE AGM

The treatment of people detained by security forces in both N. Ireland
and Brittany came under scrutiny at the Annual General Meeting of
the Celtic League held on the Isle of Man this weekend.

The detention of a number of people at Crossmaglen police station
in South Armagh in April of this year and their alleged mistreatment
was considered and a resolution calling for an enquiry by the British
and Irish governments into the episode was adopted.

Meanwhile, Breton delegates also raised concerns about the long term
detention without trial of a number of Breton nationalists currently
imprisoned in jails in the Paris area and the AGM condemned this as
a breach of International Rights relating to prisoners

The meeting also addressed cultural and environmental matters and
there was consideration of a substantial document on the Celtic Languages
containing proposals for "reversing language shift".

Another resolution outlined the organisations opposition to the construction
of any third generation nuclear power plants by the United Kingdom
at existing locations around the Irish sea. The League has been a
long time opponent of pollution sourced from the the British & French
nuclear industries.

The Celtic League is a small campaigning group that brings together
representatives from the six Celtic areas. The group was founded in
1961 and has campaigned on a range of issues enjoying considerable
success in its support of the Celtic languages and also its campaigns
to expose environmental problems caused by both military and commercial
sources.

Pls delete this crap from this website, these guys are nothing but dangerous racists and indymedia should certainly not be a platform for such crap. Delete'n'destroy.

Yikes, it seems I have mixed up this group with a very similar monikered racist organisation. The fact remains though that many groups alleging a passionate interest in their celtic culture are mere fronts for xenophobic rant, cleverly disguised behind an interest in common culture and interest in preserving our celtic environment.
This Celtic League doesn’t help itself much either - The Celtic League, American Branch aim is “to provide a link among all Americans of Celtic descent or sympathies who seek a deeper appreciation of their glorious legacy, and the need to strengthen the cultural and national identities of the Celtic peoples” (from their website). This last line is, I feel, pretty ambiguous and open to question. Please prove me wrong…
