The sugar tax sums up Britain's descent into a technocratic dystopia, says Dr David McGrogan. While our Government does almost nothing well, it remains a world-leader in passive-aggressive, surreptitious nudging.

The US-UK trade deal announced today is a clear win for Trump, says Sam Ashworth-Hayes, leaving the UK worse off than in March and opening up UK markets in exchange only for reducing recently imposed tariffs.

As in Canada, so in Australia, the crushing defeat of the conservative Liberal Party by Labour has been widely blamed on Trump. But in truth, Peter Dutton and his team only have themselves to blame, says Prof James Allan.

In Bil'in, the tear gas clouds spit bullets

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Sunday November 29, 2009 10:49author by TD - Free Palestine Campaign Report this post to the editors

No rest for the wicked on the Muslim Eid al-Adha holiday

Last Friday, same as on all the preceding Fridays the past five years, Bil'in villagers marched to the nearby Apartheid Wall to protest against the theft of over 60% of their land to facilitate the construction of a monstrous affront to international and humanitarian law and the illegal Israeli colonies skulking behind it.
Last Friday, same as on all the preceding Fridays for the past five years, the peaceful protestors were assaulted, this time, with unremitting blizzards of tear gas and percussion "sound" bombs with dozens of the marchers severly distressed from tear gas inhalation - thanking the good lord for small mercies, as it were, there were no high velocity tear gas projectiles used, "rockets" of the lethal kind that was fired point blank into the chest of Bassem Abu-Rahma last April 17th smashing three of his ribs one of which punctuted his heart thus killing, murdering him.

The protest was graced with the affable presence of Dr. Jack Nusan Porter, human rights activist, former lecturer of social science at Boston University and rabbi. Born in the deep forests of Rivne, Ukraine in 1944 where the partisan group his Polish parents fought with against the Nazis used as bases, Jack was active in the "moderate wing" of Students for a Democratic Society (the "terrorist" Weather Underground being the "immoderate wing") and "led a controversial Jewish outreach program to native Key Westers known as “Conchs”, northeastern U.S. “Snowbirds”, Miami’s Jewish, Cuban, and intermarried “Jewban” populations, transvestites, gay and lesbian parishioners" (Related Link).
