The Breast cancer unit at Mayo General Hospital is to be phased out under the HSE policy of Professor Brendan Drumm, many who travelled to the Breast cancer protest in buses and stood in the cold to highlight lack of services to the North-West will be heavily disappointed in the decision for the scheduled phase-out. Mostly they will be disappointed in the TD whom they elected who upholds the decision of the 'medical men' who know best. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/85161 Ms Flynn was at that protest, she most purposefully strode across the road to listen to the women speak and then she turned her back on them to support Mary Harney and the HSE. read full story / add a comment

We have had a week of events around the theme of the brain, and awareness of the 700.000 people in Ireland with a brain disorder ranging from Migraine, Acquired Brain Injury to MS and Parkinson's and Alzheimer's, all events coordinated through the Neurological Alliance of Ireland. This week, Internatinal Brain Awareness Week has received a huge amount of publicity, focussing as it has on personal experiences, and an honest look at the present state of services for those with a neurological disorder in Ireland - through the media - TV, radio, newspapers, the internet, and conferences and meetings. On Sunday (March 16th), the last day of Brain Awareness Week, the PALS branch of the Parkinson's Association (the branch for those diagnosed at a younger age) have a special meeting, in the Marine Hotel in Sutton at 3pm on Sunday March 16th, which is an open meeting because of its relevance to the Week, and indeed because it is testimony to the strength of the human spirit. read full story / add a comment

Peter Tatchell writes below on the case of Yaghub Mehrnehad and others under sentence of death in Iran. An Iranian Baluch journalist and civil rights campaigner, Yaghub Mehrnehad, aged 28, has been sentenced to death for an unknown offence, after torture and an unfair trial conducted behind closed doors, according to Amnesty International. His execution is imminent. He is likely to be hanged in public, using the barbaric slow strangulation method favoured by the Tehran regime. It is deliberately designed to maximise the pain and prolong the suffering of the victim. read full story / add a comment

Radical health reform, in terms of creating equality and accessibility, and stopping the agenda of privatisation and for-profit medicine, is one of the great challenges facing Irish society. In this pamphlet, anarchists explain the reasons why such change is needed, give examples of important first steps in creating change, and describe the type of struggle that is necessary if we are going to win. PDFs of this pamphlet can be downloaded: A4 version - http://www.wsm.ie/attachments/mar2008/health_pamphlet_1...1.pdf A5 booklet version (for double sided printing) - http://www.wsm.ie/attachments/mar2008/health_pamphlet_a...1.pdf read full story / add a comment

Sinn Féin Senator Pearse Doherty yesterday met with representatives of Shell and Statoil to clearly outline his and Sinn Féin’s opposition to the terms and conditions under which gas exploration companies operate in Ireland and in Irish Waters. Speaking after the meeting Senator Doherty said, “Today I met with representatives of Shell and Statoil to clearly outline my and Sinn Féin’s complete opposition to the terms and conditions under which gas exploration companies operate in Ireland and in Irish Waters. These conditions have not been properly negotiated by the Government and do not offer a fair return to the State and its people. This is one of the reasons why Sinn Féin opposes the Finance Bill 2008 as it maintains these very conditions for gas exploration companies. read full story / add a comment
