An information table was manned outside Lynch's castle,Shop st, where flyers on Israel's Apartheid Wall were handed out to passing pedestrians. The peak experience of the day was Khaled from Palestine,chancing upon us and visiting serious heartening appreciation on our efforts after joining us for the remainder of our five hour stint. ... read full story / add a comment

9 states globally have enacted laws which allow their courts put to trial those accused of genocide. Accordingly June 2003 Spanish Judge Baltasar Garzón jailed Ricardo Miguel Cavallo, (also known as Miguel Angel Cavallo), a former Argentine naval officer, extradited from Mexico to Spain pending his trial on charges of genocide and terrorism relating to the years of Argentina's military dictatorship (1976 to 1983) in which over 9,000 Argentinians and as many as 30,000 disappeared.

Ógra Shinn Féin mobilised across Ireland on Saturday 16 December demanding the release of IRA prisoners in Ireland and anti Imperialist prisoners across the world.

There were protests, solidarity collections, candlelit vigils, banners made and thousands of leaflets distributed to a very supportive public.

There was also a public meeting held in the English midlands by Socialist Labour Party highlighting the campaign.

The message went out loud and clear from the day of action - A.R.I.S.E and free the prisoners!

For the remainder of the month of December there will be further actions in solidarity with the prisoners.
