The extortionate pension levies imposed on public sector workers by Brian Cowen and IBEC this afternoon will further devastate the lives of the low and middle income earners. Nothing further was announced to curb the salaries of the highest paid public and private sector workers - the class of people the government is extending itself to protect above all others. read full story / add a comment

Today's Irish Examiner effectively sets out the FG stall. The IE is a firmly pro Fine Gael paper and though its editorial makes no mention of Fine Gael, it's a safe bet that it reflects current thinking at FG HQ. http://www.irishexaminer.com/irishexaminer/pages/story....1.asp read full story / add a comment ![]()

Today at 9:30 more than 300 workers occupied the administrative building of Kherson Engineering Plant. The workers demand payment of wages, nationalization of the plant without compensation to its owner and are decisively inclined to occupy the building until complete fulfillment of their demands. During occupation no worker has injured. Factory guards did not resist seriously. The situation is controlled by yesterday elected workers council. The police has not yet appeared near the building. read full story / add a comment

Four-year-old Samar Abed Rabbu is a little girl with a captivating smile to melt the heart of the most hardened correspondent. Samar had been shot in the back at close range. The bullet damaged her spine, and she is unlikely to walk again. At her bedside, her uncle Hassan told us the family had been ordered out of their home by Israeli soldiers who were shelling the neighbourhood. A tank had parked in front of the house, where around 30 people were taking shelter. The women and children - mother, grandmother and three little girls - came out waving a white flag and then, he said, an Israeli soldier came out of the tank and opened fire on the terrified procession. Samar's two sisters, aged seven and two, were shot dead. The grandmother was hit in the arm and in the side, but has survived. read full story / add a comment ![]()

Members of the Cork branch of the Workers Solidarity Movement travelled to Waterford today (2nd Feburary) to offer solidarity and support to the workers who are occupying Waterford Crystal. While there we took the opportunity to do an interview with Joe Kelly of the UNITE union and of Waterford Crystal, asking him the kind of questions that fellow workers and readers of Indymedia might be interested in. We also took some photos of a unique Waterford twist on 'canteen culture'. You can hear the interview with which we recorded here. read full story / add a comment

On Saturday the 31st January approximately 80 concerned citizens demonstrated in solidarity with the Palestinian people in their plight for justice. The group convened at Daunt Square at 1pm and commenced a tour of the city's shopping centres before marching for a mile past Turners Cross to Woodies DIY Store near the Kinsale Road Roundabout. The protest called on the people of Cork to join in the campaign to Boycott Israel and in particular for shoppers to be conscience of what they may be supporting in buying Israeli products namely the recent massacre in Gaza and the persistent violations of Human Rights and Humanitarian legal standards. read full story / add a comment

Press accounts published in Ireland over the past decade, however, have linked the company to an influence-peddling scandal that rocked the Irish political establishment during the 1990s. Moreover, the man at the center of the controversy has had past ties to Carlyle Group, an American equity investment firm that is stacked with high-ranking former U.S. government officials with checkered careers. read full story / add a comment

Last Saturday, members of the Galway Palestine Children's Appeal were "overwhelmed" by the public response to their appeal for humanitarian aid for the children and people of Gaza - expecting one 40ft container to be filled with medical supplies, household goods, non perishable food, clothes and toys, a further two had to be ordered and to ease the pressure, a request was broadcast by the local radio station, Galway Bay FM, for donors to procrastinate their visit to the drop-off point at the Black Box theatre until the delivery of the third container - this morning, at 7AM two of the stuffed containers started their journey of mercy and there is a large stockpile of aid awaiting the arrival of the third. Including an operating table from Letterkenny Hospital, medical staff in the west donated money and supplies and businesses such as the Galway Radisson Hotel gifted 100 duvets and pillows. read full story / add a comment ![]()
