Ireland could and should have a Universal Pension for everyone over 65. it could be paid for principally by standard rating the current tax-break for private pensions. More than 80% of benefit of the current tax break goes to the 20% with highest earnings. A Universal Pension would be simpler, fairer and more just as well as being sustainable in the decades ahead. No existing pensioner would lose out and many would experience an increase in the Universal Pension. In particular, those adults aged 66 years and older, in respect of whom reduced payments are now made due to their status as ‘Qualified Adults’, would receive a Universal Pension in their own right. read full story / add a comment

This talk by Dr. Vincent Durac aims to increase public awareness about the current political and humanitarian crisis in Syria. Beginning in 2011 after the al-Assad regime began a violent crackdown on protestors demanding greater economic and political freedoms, the situation has become increasingly unstable and of humanitarian concern. In 2013, Syria is on the brink of Western military intervention further complicating the West's relationship with the Middle East. The goal of this lecture is to increase public knowledge of this conflict and therefore will be delivered in an accessible manner outlining the main points of the current crisis. It aims to address the following questions: What is happening? Why is it happening? Who is involved? What are the consequences of intervention? read full story / add a comment

In 2012 the attempt by the government to Quebec to introduce a 75% fee hike was defeated by the organisation of a mass student strike that lasted over 6 months. That fee increase was part of the global process of imposing the privatisation and commodification of education. Since the victory, organisers of the strike have been being doing speaking tours to aid the process whereby "youth and students everywhere are becoming increasingly conscious of the need to organize as a means to defend education as a social right". In September this tour reaches Ireland where we need to hear how a sustained and militant student movement that can win is built. read full story / add a comment |
