On the 4th of October the National Executive of Batasuna, the Basque independence party, were arrested by the Spanish police at a meeting in Segura. This represents a great disrespect on thepart of the Spanish Government for the crisis prone Basque peace process and the fact that it is still their firm belief that the Basque people have no right to freedom and democracy. read full story / add a comment

This week marks the twentieth anniversery of a man murdered to protect a high ranking British agent within the Provisional IRA. It also sees the seventh anniversery of his grandson who himself was murdered only yards away.
Yet the ability to commemorate either of these republicans has been made impossible by a criminal gang operating within the Ballymurphy area.

Yippee, it's the 12th of the tenth month again. This is the day that all over the world people get a day off work if they've got that sort of job so they may reflect what being Hispanic is about & how jolly good Colombus was for being credited with discovering India.
It offers a wide range of people from South Americans to Basques & Catalans to demonstrate that they are not in any way Hispanic & have no commonwealth with Spain or her democracy & then get arrested for it. Whilst on the other side of the wondrous spectrum of humanity it offers people a chance to look at the army in Madrid & the annual hissing of Zapatero in the minute of silence...........something for everyone........ read full story / add a comment

......"If you're going to tell people they're wrong & unsportsmanlike you have to direct their energies elsewhere".....

I realise & so do other regular contributors that there's a lot of anti-China sentiment floating about. It's quite understandable considering the Mattel Toy corporation scandal earlier this year which misled the world into thinking they were expected to send back their Barbie dolls because Chinese factory workers had poisoned them, only to learn later it was Mattel Toy Corp's manufacturing instructions which were at fault. & of course since the mid-19th century it was been impossible to treat on anti-chinese sentiment without mentioning Lama-ism. So a spot of news for those who hold Lama-ism in great esteem. "The democratically-elected Tibetan government-in-exile (TGIE) has challenged China over a new law designed to limit Tibetan Buddhism’s role in identifying reincarnated lamas."
