Tonight on RTE Radio 1 at 8pm on The Green Light, they will be discussing Transition Towns. Kinsale in Co. Cork was one of the first towns to adopt this strategy. The programme airs for 30 mins.

Nick Bird has been a member of the SWP for 17 years. Below he outlines his reasons for parting with what he sees to be an undemocratic and dishonest organisation. As for my intentions, I have been an SWP member for 17 years, but frankly I’ve had enough. This is a bit of a wrench for me, since I feel that I learnt the core political ideas and principles that I hold from the SWP. But for some years I have felt my belief in the good things that the party does being qualified by frustrations at its practices and methods. I will stay in Respect and align myself with those who want an inclusive, democratic party that fights for peace, justice, equality and socialism. read full story / add a comment

The Republic of Argentina shares many sociohistorical parallels with the Republic of Ireland. Both have been traditionally conservative, christian nations, with the Roman Catholic Church having a privileged position of power in all areas of public life. Even so, due to massive demonstrations and strong activist commitment, coupled with horrifying stories which came to the attention of the press, it became impossible for the government to stay impassive any longer. While abortion hasn't become legal in Argentina, this article will explore its history, the parallels with Ireland, and recent developments which may be opening the way for safe and legal abortion in the South American nation. read full story / add a comment

This morning the State gave assurances to the Council of Europe that the health and Safety of Irish prisoners would be upheld. This unusual occurence happened because it is the second such report from outside the state which highlights the problems in our prisons. Both the Amnesty International report for 2006 and the European Committee for the Prevention of Torture highlighted the murder of Gary Douch in a holding cell int the basement of Mountjoy and the continued medieval practices of slopping out in that prison. The Committee visited ten Garda stations, seven prisons and the Central Mental Hospital. The report is damning. read full story / add a comment

See below a plea to the US and UK governments to enter into negotiations with the Iranian regime. This is from CASMII, the organisation that the SWP is involved in. They are suddenly keen to portray the US and UK governments as capable of playing a progressive role in the region! It is clear now who is really creating illusions in the US and UK governments – as well of course as being loyal supporters of the Iranian regime. We urge the leaders of the U.S., the U.K. and Iran to set aside allpre-conditions and resume direct and open negotiations on all issuesof dispute, to bring about a lowering of tensions, to create an opening for meaningful progress toward understanding, and to envision a Middle East in which all its residents can coexist and together address the common problems of violence, poverty, illness and environmental degradation. read full story / add a comment
