This year will mark the first ever Connolly Festival, taking place in the Teachers Club on Friday 16th and Saturday the 17th of June.

The idea of the festival is to organise an event to commemorate James Connolly by looking at issues and campaigns that are relevant today. It is hosted by Labour Youth and the event is open to all left wing activists. It is our hope that the workshops will be informative and interactive with the clear intention of a unified campaign emerging at the end of each session. Although speakers have been asked to speak, it is hoped that all activists present would make contributions and help ensure a lively discussion.

In a forthcoming BBC documentary Richard O’Rawe once again will be claiming that the republican leadership rejected a deal from the British government shortly before the death of Joe McDonnell on July 8th 1981. Richard is a former blanket man and PRO in the H-Blocks. Whilst in jail Richard never raised his claims with the leadership in prison or the leadership outside. After Richard’s release he worked with me in the Republican Press Centre for a year and never mentioned the allegations he now makes.

He neither approached Brendan ‘Bik’ McFarlane, O/C of the prisoners, nor me to ask us our recollections of this period when he was preparing for his book. Last year Richard alleged that in late July 1981 I sat at a meeting with hunger strikers’ families with a deal from the British government in my back pocket and didn’t tell them. When I pointed out that I had been in hospital in Dublin during that period Richard realised his memory was false and discreetly dropped the claim. He claims he wrote the book out of concern for the relatives, yet he never told them. Instead, he published extracts from the book in the ‘Sunday Times’.

As most us of us know, the 6th day of the 6th month of Two thousand and..............6
has seen Fox news launch their "Omen remake" and fundamentalists throughout Eire have flocked to school-yards to check the kids for nits and headlice "just in case".

It also has given Joseph Ratzinger an ocassion to be homophobic, anti-feminist, preach who ought have babies, and mention abortion. (Great timing there.) read full story / add a comment

Thousands cheered as the women of the Shell to Sea campaign set off in great numbers to race around Dublin in the mini-marathon today.
