For the last few years since the CV19 scamdemic undocumented immigration into Ireland has surged. No one is allowed discuss it because they do not want any rational debate about it.

There is a tendency to dismiss the rantings of Kevin Myers as mere guff designed to sell newspapers. However, this would be to ignore the collateral damage his phosphorous cluster bomb prose inflicts. His salvo last Friday attacking the legacy of Bob Doyle and his comrades who fought in Spain against fascism should be a call to make next Saturday's commemoration in their honour a defiant rebuttal of all Myers' and his ilk stand for. read full story / add a comment

Maureen Kenny Has died, a true lover of education and books, many will
have a memory of the Labyrinthe bookshop, the smell of the books and the
friendly family who ran it.

You could find yourself tripping into Mr Kenny's office and getting a lecture
on dropping out of college, work; and where the bestest poetry books were
kept.

Many of us miss the old shop with the low ceilings and the carpetted stairs
and Maureen always had a smile- did not matter if you were the Laureate
or a small writer, everyone was united by love of knowledge and books. read full story / add a comment

Tony Wilson had a heart attack this week & after suffering prolonged illness died comfortably yesterday in Manchester. He was a hoot. He played records, he did telly, he started record companies, he made glitzy crap, he started the Hacienda club, he play his part in so many roles. Most of them of such importance to our contemporary culture and media that at first it's just too easy to think he had the long difficult death coming and it doesn't matter if people don't make or do that sort of music or telly or if Manchester still isn't free.

He was 57 years of age. It is highly unlikely that such an entrepeneurial professional gobshite will ever arrive on the scene with such ironic affability.

May he rest in peace.

In the last while attention on this site has been brought yet again to the suicide crises & adjacent mental health issues amongst our young. We've read much & been directed to yet other sites and resources who like most of us want to do our bit to tackle the problem. There seems to be growing concensus that the nasty hard approach just isn't working. Yet we've still got some work to do in appraising what that means & how it ought influence contemporary anarchist & friends activism, conversation, chit-chat & attitude. It goes without saying the judicial, penal & educational policies and frameworks of both the Irish state & Irish society have a role to play. But lest we get diverted into learning a list of "warning signs" & "indicators" of those dealing with the various psychological or emotional challenges which may lead to suicide I thought to bring it back to primary school.

The death of Mstislav Leopoldovich Rostropovich the world famed cellist hsa been reported. He was 80 years of age. With his passing the age of great cellists ends. It is odd that this week the world has turned to writing obituaries of Boris Yeltsin and recalling the foiled coup d'etat attempt which brought Yeltsin to prominence. But many will not know that Rostropovich known as Slava to his students, admirers and friends was one of the key figures within Moscow's government buildings who inspired Yeltsin to climb up on the tank. If Slava had climbed up on the tank - things would have been different. He was a master who knew that. May he rest in Peace.

The death has occured of an indymedia NYC photojournalist and activist in Oaxaca Mexico.
He was shot by forces loyal to the Governor of Oaxaca as he was videoing in the zone of the
popular uprising led by the APPO- The Popular Assembly of the Oaxacan People.
We have all seen the photos of the assassin, the downed photographer and the scenes
in NYC of Erin Siegel Indymedia photographer/Reuter photographer being arrested and her
camera confiscated. The Protest at the Mexican Consulate was a solidarity and celebration
of Brad Will's Life. Others have died this week in Oaxaca, members of the APPO and
the medium for Broadcast of the APPO, the Radio Universidad was attacked and put off Air.
In all this the activist and writer has died and brought the truth of the lawlessness of the federales
who are sponsored by the US into our community. It should not have taken a death to do this. read full story / add a comment

In 1957 an american housewife, 15 years after graduation and into a young marriage with young children sent all her female fellow graduates a list of questions.
The "american housewife" had been born Bettye Naomi Goldstein, and at marriage became Betty Freidan. She was born on February 4th 1921 and died exactly 85 years later on February 4th 2006.
"some worry we'll lose our feminity if we become equality...since femininity is being a woman and feeling good about it, clearly the better you feel about yourself as a person, the better you feel about being a woman. And it seems to me the better you are able to love a man"

RIP = rest in peace
