It has been said that we live in a business run society which is characterised by business parties masquerading as political parties and a 'political class' that implements policies which more often than not puts the interests of 'big business' ahead of the well being of the general populace. The unprecedented nature of bank bailouts in this country along with continued and debatable payments to bondholders with an apparent absence of serious public consultation let alone a referendum on matters with such wide-ranging and generational consequences seems to lend some credence to this characterisation of modern society. read full story / add a comment

In letters to Joe Costello TD and Bethany Home Survivors Chairperson, Derek Leinster (attached), Ruairi Quinn TD, Minister for education, turned down the survivors' request to have the Home included in the Schedule to the Residential Institutions Redress Scheme. They met the Minister on 24 May last, accompanied by other survivors from the home, and by Niall Meehan from Griffith College Dublin. Inclusion is necessary in order for survivors to apply for compensation for the neglect they suffered in the home that the state was aware of but ignored. read full story / add a comment

I want to seperate out what is becoming problematic in terms of Irish Coalition Partnerships for a minute and focus on how those people who attain power actually begin to use it. For instance , the Irish Dáil is a place where ideology (of whatever flavour) is not an issue when entering into what we fondly term a junior coalition partnership/ relationship with a majority party (JCP). it doesn't matter a bit, no political party , whatever their stripe goes into poor areas and asks for votes , because they (and especially the Labour party) do not care to know about poverty. It is invisible to them, and mostly at the moment in terms of access to education. read full story / add a comment

'Fracking' is a term that not everyone may be aware of. It is used to describe a method of shale gas extraction known as Hydraulic Fracturing. Unfortunately it is a term we are very likely to hear a lot more about in the coming months and years. read full story / add a comment

David Cameron, the man who is responsible for the attack on education, the working class and the public sector, will be visiting the Stormont Assembly to discuss the Lowering of Corporation Tax. Under European rules on state aid to regions within nations, any cut in corporation tax would come with a price tag. The compensating cost to the NI block grant could be £215m by 2015. read full story / add a comment

Join us on June 11th for the launch of the Campaign for the Old City Arts Building (COCAB). Our aim is to take back the Old City Arts building, 23-25 Mosse St (near Tara dart station) which has been abandoned for nearly a decade and is now part of the National Assets Management Agency (NAMA). We want the building to be opened up for use as an educational and cultural space, managed collectively by anyone who wants to take part, independent of private or state institutions. We also want to broaden this by demanding that the NAMA legislation be changed so that all disused NAMA buildings can be used by the citizens for social and cultural projects, social housing or (in the case of undeveloped land) community gardens. It is clear that the politics of ‘elected representatives’ has completely failed in the context of the crisis- only people power and direct action can bring real change. read full story / add a comment |
