It is 93 years since two of Ireland's greatest republican socialists, James Connolly and James Larkin, led what became known as the Dublin lockout. The bosses 'locked out' thousands of workers for the heinous crime of defending their rights as workers and seeking union protection. While this may seem like a very long time ago, the struggle for workers rights on this island has not disappeared nor should it. What the lockout represented was an organised attempt to undermine the systematic exploitation of Irish workers. In 2006 that reality is still amongst us. Workers are effectively seen as a necessary evil to help the capitalist classes to achieve maximum profits. One key difference exists between now and 1913. While in 1913 the bosses were shielded by the existence of a British imperialist administration, they are now aided by an industrial relations tool which has actually been endorsed by many unions. That tool is social partnership.

On Thursday the 27th October, the Jordanstown Órga Shinn Féin society held a
protest against the British army at the careers and placement convention.

This protest was to oppose the presence of the British army at this event but also to highlight the hypocrisy of the University of Ulster to allow the British army to promote, and recruit potential students yet refusing political parties or societies to even distribute leaflets to fellow students during the Fresher’s Fayre.

Todays Papers state the Pope Benedict will visit the North of Ireland Next year.
He is to be Invited to beatify Saint Columbana. The proposed visit is being
requested by Dr Martin and envisages also a joint visit by HRH The Queen.
The most recent report of Pope Benedict was a couple of days ago , when
he deplored the activities of the Fern's Priests who got away with child abuse
and tortured a generation of Irish Children. There was no acceptance of
responsibility by the Roman Catholic Church in the statement on Ferns.

I think we should all take a look at what is so important about indymedia work and why it is so important and what it means to each one of us. I hope that we draw courage of conviction from Brad's example and that we stand together throughout the indymedia network and as individuals to redouble our efforts. I think you all know that it could have been any one of us. But, it is so much easier for them to take us one at a time. We stand much more strongly together in what we can all be proud of. Our brave common struggle. Indymedia. read full story / add a comment
