I have received over two years consistent appeals by Women's Writer's Unions for aid in advertising repressions of Women Writers , some of the appeals have gone on the Newswire; and some have been passed on to to groups where the campaign would be more effective. The plight of the writers has not in that period alleviated and some are in dire situations. This morning another one arrived, an archive update of the 2007 Women's Day attempt to highlight the cases of imprisoned Women Writers and activists. All their names are familiar, Amnesty, Human Right's Watch, Reporters Without Borders, International Women In Media Federation, Committee for the Protection of Journalists and PEN Women's Union have advocated on their cases. Links to the ongoing cases of Journalist and activist repression:-between Women's day 2007-2008. read full story / add a comment

Despite substantial additional spending and significant administrative change, the Irish health system remains in crisis. First proposed by the Labour Party in 2001, universal health insurance is increasingly being seen as the only way to achieve a better, more efficient and fairer health system. We are hosting a forum which aims to address these questions, and to progress the debate about an idea whose time has come. Speakers will address the question as to how universal health insurance could be the answer to the seemingly intractable problems in Ireland’s health system, and how could it be implemented? read full story / add a comment

The healthcare system, upon which people in Ireland depend, is an apartheid system. Simply put, some lives are worth more than others. Rare attempts at reform have been stymied by historic, chronic underspending and vested interests. This legacy has forced the vast majority of working people to take out private health insurance and has laid the foundations for a neo-liberal push towards an American-style system of private medicine. read full story / add a comment

Besides the wanton murder of nearly 40 Palestinians the past week, the vicious Israeli blockade of Gaza has also snuffed out the lives of five patients, including three babies in the al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City - according to Dr Raed al-Arani, a surgeon and spokesman for the hospital, they either died from hypothermia or from power cuts interrupting their vital oxygen supplies at home. read full story / add a comment

The Sinn Féin President told the assembled; Comhdháil Náisúnta, that the Lisbon treaty was a bad deal for Ireland. “The Lisbon Treaty, like many of the treaties that went before it, does not deliver reform, efficiency or democracy. It is a bad deal for Ireland. We deserve and can achieve better.” read full story / add a comment

At around lunchtime in Europe, when we're grabbing sandwiches or sitting down to plates of pasta or green salads (or skulling pints in the Stag's Head) the financial markets in Wall Street open. Usually they react to the morning's trading in the European markets, and so US traders seeing falling prices as a buying opportunity can offset a downward trend. Yesterday however, the holiday for Martin Luther King meant the falls on the global markets went from bad, to worse, to unbelievably bad, while in America the boys in the sharp suits were at home celebrating racial diversity and civil rights. read full story / add a comment

Five of Nato’s top strategists have issued a” radical manifesto” urging the alliance’s member states to prepare for nuclear first strikes in order to counter fanatics who , they claim , are bent on destroying the West’s “way of life” . The vehement language of the manifesto has puzzled some commentators . Robert Cooper, an influential shaper of European foreign and security policy in Brussels is quoted in the Guardian article as saying "Maybe we are going to use nuclear weapons before anyone else, but I'd be wary of saying it out loud." The 150 page manifesto will be delivered to the Pentagon over the next ten days . It is issued at a time of crisis for NATO whose conventional forces face the prospect of defeat in Afghanistan . According to the Guardian, it was written following discussions with active NATO commanders and policymakers, many of whom are unable or unwilling to publicly air their views. read full story / add a comment
