Twenty-four Greenpeace activists from Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Turkey and the UK were arrested earlier this month at NATO’s Brussels Headquarters.

At a nuclear submarine base in Brittany on Friday, Chirac announced the fruits of France's Atomic Energy Commission contract with HP in Galway. They've made "usable" tactical nuclear weapons, and first-strike policy to use them against non-nuclear states and nuclear states alike (though of course they wouldn't use them against the nuclear states). read full story / add a comment

Judge Macken appears to have put off returning a judgement for the Judicial Review I began the same week I spray-painted a USAF C-130 warplane at Shannon Airport until this autumn. That'll make it four years since the day the President of the High Court granted me leave to seek a judicial review of Ireland's part in the Afghanistan war, 12 September 2002. read full story / add a comment

Everyone in the house is getting ready to go out and vote. Polling stations in our area (Bagneux, one of the last two Communist towns left in Paris's former "red belt" suburbs) are closing at 9 or so. Nina and I (we're engaged - did I say?) are then off for a non-party with some friends. I can't vote here, but I've been following some of what others have been saying here, and would like to share a few observations with you. read full story / add a comment

Six ‘Trident Ploughshares’ anti-war activists from Leicester, London and Norwich, who this June entered Burghfield, one of Britain’s WMD bases, and put it out of action for over an hour -- left Reading Magistrates’ Court this afternoon disappointed that the Magistrate had found four of them guilty of criminal damage (the other two had accepted ‘bindovers’ and so the charges against them were dropped), but pleased that their arguments about why their actions were valid under international law were at least heard sympathetically by the Court. read full story / add a comment

A Scottish anti-nuke activist yesterday told the local court near Faslane nuke base that until the courtroom was accessible to all the public (people in wheelchairs included) it surely couldn't be said to be a place where fair and public tribunals are held. This press release reminds me, I don't recall seeing a ramp or lift at the entrance to Ennis courthouse, where Mary Kelly is on trial again today. Hmmm. read full story / add a comment

Trident Ploughshares pledger, Adam Conway (25), was sent to prison for seven days today for refusing to pay a 170 GBP fine he received for an anti-nuke protest back in July 2001. Many Indymedia Ireland readers will know Adam from his tireless work on Shannon, in Gluaiseacht, the Grassroots Gathering, Mayday protests and actions. He helped get legal support docs, legal observers training, and nonviolence workshops together for Shannon protests too. read full story / add a comment

How can I work for a multinational corporation during the day, and still call myself in good conscience an anarchist because of the work I do in my spare time? Someone asked this question here the other day and it was removed before I could hit "post comment" with my follow-up... hopefully this one won't get the chop so fast. :-) read full story / add a comment

An article in today's Guardian newspaper about a riot at the UK's worst immigration removal centre, the Harmondsworth conplex, begins with a passage which might tell us something about why people there are rioting: "The Home Office today promised a full investigation after the discovery of a hanged detainee led to a "serious disturbance" overnight at the country's largest immigration detention centre. The death was not thought to be suspicious, but staff at the Harmondsworth complex - near Heathrow airport, west London - were forced to withdraw for their own safety." read full story / add a comment |
