Richard Behal was a candidate for Sinn Fein in 1984 European Election in Munster. This was an international election. He was prevented from appearing on RTE, due to a Ministerial Order under Section 31 of the Broadcasting Act. His policies were misrepresented by RTE on a special Munster constituency programme, which gave the other eight candidates extended airtime. At the end the programme purported to give the audience a very brief summary of Behal’s platform, but misrepresented it. He was never contacted by RTE. read full story / add a comment

This is a talk given by Dick Bryan from the University of Sydney at the recent Historical Materialism 2008 conference in London the weekend before last. Bryan collaborated with Mike Rafferty to co-author the ground-breaking book "Capitalism and Derivatives" in 2006. One of the first books to properly examine the recent explosive developments in high finance from an anti-capitalist perspective, they have blazed a new path in investigating the hyper-evolution of current capitalist financial engineering that is at the root of the current crisis. read full story / add a comment

Last Saturday's information stall in Shop Street was again focused on EU complicity with Israeli war crimes against Palestinians, particularly Gazans; it's almost a year ago now since Commissioner-General for United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, Karen Koning AbuZayd, warned: “Gaza is on the threshold of becoming the first territory to be intentionally reduced to a state of abject destitution,” citing the EU and international community as accomplices in the barbaric siege of Gaza . Despite the fact that the Fourth Geneva Convention defines collective punishment as a war crime, the EU runs empathetically with the hare in condemning such a crime whilst, at the same time hunting, cheek by jowl, with the hounds who perpetrate such criminality. read full story / add a comment
