Betancourt unwell

President Sarkozy who in asking for the release of Ms Ingrid Betancourt from captivity
made a remark that shows his incredible lack of diplomacy and was probably why his
spouse led the march for her release in Paris today. He said that if she dies then FARC
will be 'responsible for the death of a woman'. Many government leaders are so responsible,
but to use the media to allow such a statement travel like a virus through our world
was badly judged and dangerous. Ms Betancourt has endured six years of separation from
her mother and her children and is unwell, being on hunger strike.

Everyone wants Ingrid freed.

On a day when the UN released a report that 70% of women suffer poverty and only own 1% of the world's
titled land, which is a common inheritance of all people I decided to look at media coverage of the issues.
The Irish Times had the report in small paragraph without title or reference to the committee release.
And I could not find it elsewhere. Addressing the root cause of women's poverty is not a simple
prospect, afterall, National Governments do not listen to women. If they did they would hear what they say
to me everyday...

On the evening of the second of April there was a celebration of International
Women's Day at the Unitarian Church at St Stephen's Green. Bertie had Just
quit and as Jennifer Johnson noted there were a lot of 'drums', those of FF
beating a retreat and of FG beating a tattoo. Medbh Mc Guckian referred to the fact
that in Northern Ireland women can now buy 6,000 Euro handbags, but quality
of life had not improved at all for many. But is was not all politics, it was about
poetry and song.

Like many sophisticated freethinkers & well honed intellectually rigorous atheists or agnostics, I've gone far past the stage of being fed up with the Capitalist system obliging me to holidays on the 25th of December, Easter, 17th of March & so on all the bloody year. I want to work 28 days straight and save up my "Sabbath" days & add them on to my statutory entitlements. I'm sick of being exploited by tourist agencies by a macro-cultural I'm sure most clever people like me, foam at the mouth of. read full story / add a comment

Enclosing the commons – the historical process of fencing off land which had previously been in the public domain, for private use – is perhaps one of the most blatant expressions of the fundamental criminal nature of the capitalist state. Today it's the voracious neo-liberal model which stalks the last pockets of community-held global territory for privatization - from Chiapas, Mexico, to the deep Amazon, to the Garifuna coast of Honduras, leaving no stone unturned. read full story / add a comment

The upcoming referendum for the Treaty of Lisbon, only voted for by the people of Ireland will determine the future of all European member states. The Treaty is basically a redraft of the EU Treaty rejected by the people of France and Holland, although the majority of political partys where campaigning for a Yes vote in both countries. The Treaty of Lisbon will passed now in France and Holland and all other member states without ratification. Well Ireland gets to vote and the majority of political partys are urging people to Vote Yes... read full story / add a comment
