Bertie Gormley our new minister for Dublin 6W has flown his first kite (as feeble mid-week press releases aimed at popular opinion & concern are known in the trade). & what a load of sticky bollox it is too. Gormley wants to increase "on-the-spot" fines for littering from 125eu to 150eu & is considering asking the producers of Chewing Gum to increase their environmental awareness spending on proper disposal of the by-product of the petrol industry to a whopping 2 million. Oh sorry did I say "whopping"? Now let's remind ourselves that whilst Gardai monitoring Salafists at the Custom House wear bullet proof vests large companies up and down the country are illegally dumping poisonous waste removed from dubious sites. And we probably don't have the resources to reduce the gummy menace on two million alone. It's pittance. Sure a Green deputy could forget he inherited just short of that on Oil Corp shares. Lets Stamp out Gum! read full story / add a comment

Torab Saleth is a member of Workers Left Unity Iran and is also a member of the Advisory Editorial Board of the journal Critique. Here, Torab provides an analysis of the class nature of the Iranian Regime. This is the articles first publication. pat c The Class Nature of the Iranian Regime The current Iranian regime, in power in the so-called "Islamic Republic of Iran" since the 1979 revolution against the Shah, continues to confuse many observers as to its true nature. The intrinsic confusion lies precisely in the fact that it is considered as a post-revolutionary regime. You constantly hear the argument that whatever it is, and however bad and vicious it may be, it nevertheless is a regime which came out of a revolution against the Shah's dictatorship. Somehow, this mechanistic logic is then used to bestow a certain air of progressiveness upon a regime which for any observer with a little political sense is nothing but a semi-fascistic theocracy defending capitalism. read full story / add a comment |
