The World Trade Organisation's General Agreement On Trades and Services, where government is forced to create an 'equal playing field' through the removal of 'barriers to trade' in the services industries has long been the subject of the anti-capitalist lefts' rhetoric and polemic. Barriers cited by the WTO include "the existence of government monopolies and high subsidisation of local institutions”.

Three photos I took at the Salthill airshow in Galway. The first is of some friends making their way to the airshow with placards, scanner, video camera and big smiley faces! Just after I took this photo a B-1B bomber thundered over us (which we're *to believe* doesn't carry nukes anymore, see http://www.fas.org/nuke/guide/usa/bomber/b-1b.htm). read full story / add a comment

Last Sunday, the 7th of July, a crowd of 100,000 gathered at the Salthill Air Show. Treated to a display of military prowess billed as the 'greatest free show in Europe', the crowd 'ooh'd' and 'aah'd' as Hercules helicopters, F-15s and a B1 bomber streaked overhead.

GENERAL STRIKE SEVILLE June 20th Seville ground to a halt today as everyone downed tools and took to the streets in a massive show of unity.
