The book is in two sections, the first 17 short poems and series ;and the second is a beautiful long poem called 'Skywriting' which is all about light and the sun threading his way over our Irish map. read full story / add a comment

Lieutenant General Dermot Earley the gung-ho ex-Ranger and commander of the Irish military must be licking his lips! The Minister for Foreign Affairs says he expects a Government decision to be made on Tuesday over the deployment of up to four hundred Irish troops in eastern Chad. Dermot Ahern has just returned from a four day visit to Sudan and Chad, during which he met with Government leaders as well as aid workers and local people. If the Government gives its go-ahead for the mission the Dáil will then have to give its approval. A gung-ho military bored with guarding armoured money vans wants to get its hands dirty in a nasty imperialist war in Africa. read full story / add a comment

An International week in solidarity with Iranian Workers is being organised for November 24-30, 2007. This action is support of the Iranian People and against the Capitalist Iranian Government but is also against the US Capitalist Warmongers. The recent wave of oppression against activists of workers' organizations in Iran and other social movements is not a new incident but a routine practice of the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI). This wave of repression nevertheless has caused the radicalization and development of class-based labour protests. These conditions have jeopardized the entirety of Islamic Republic of Iran. Social and economic crises are rapidly escalating. It is a proven fact that the promises of the capitalist regime of Iran are false and that this regime has brought nothing but the continuous oppression of working people. This regime has caused ever-increasing poverty and misery for working class. read full story / add a comment

The Sixteen Day Campaign for stopping Violence Against Women is set for the 25th November to the Tenth of December 2007. Lip Service and Tokenism abound here, but it is a period that internationally women address Safety, Violence, Rape, Women's Aid and of course, how our divided societies create a wealth class of pseudo-feminism and an opposing class of community activism based wholly in gendered stereo-typing and money, or to be politically correct about it how we make our daughters second class citizens by ignoring their Basic Rights. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/82605 read full story / add a comment

Tony Blair had self-nominated David Miliband to take up the cudgels of office in the wake of his departure from office, but apart from creating a few little ripples the whole idea was a non-starter for Blair and for Miliband. He got placed, instead in Britain's Foreign Office and last night he began to use his office to 'make speeches' , which are both unbelievably crass and inopportune. They involve beligerence against an already pissed off Putin and a diplomatic word to 'Keep our promises to Turkey', meanwhile in Turkey, a political party with connections to the PKK is being banned. We all know what that means in Ireland.. Reductio ad Absurdum.:Reduce debate, achieve political consensus and sell off assets to benefit the wealthy. read full story / add a comment
