When it comes to the public meeting, Arthur Scargill is one of the best performers around. He has it down to fine art. Perhaps this is down to his political up bringing as a member of the Young Communist League, where great stress was placed on the importance of making inspiring speeches. Or perhaps it has something to do with that fact that much maligned figure like Scargill needs the medium of the public meeting more than most to get across his points, and has thus has a particualr understanding of how to use public meetings to maximum effect. read full story / add a comment

An Bord Pleanála Board has overruled its own Inspectors and given the go ahead for a high voltage power line to run through South and West Donegal.

However local opposition is strong and Donegal Alternatives to Pylons is not going away. read full story / add a comment

This year the Ahmadinejad regime gave even more importance to the anniversary of the U.S. embassy takeover than usual so as to claim anti-imperialist credentials. The imperialist media influential in Iran also emphasized this day as the anniversary of the takeover and ignored the memory of the student movement. So two opposing celebrations were held, one by the regime in front of the U.S. embassy and the other all over Tehran and other cities, especially those with universities. The regime’s TV used edited film footage from previous years to inflate the number of pro-government forces, but they did it so unskilfully that this became a scandal. This first-hand report translated from the Iranian student newspaper Bazr details some of the day's events.
