The employers have been on an offensive against the working class for the past forty years. The assaults on the public sector are the latest fronts. Unfortunately the union leaders have gone along with this offensive. In the present battles they bleat that they will get their members to give concessions as long as they can negotiate these. In essence this is what the union leaders position boils down to. Let us negotiate and we will get our members to make concessions. Of course this would continue to give the union leaders a role. The union leaders fear a victory in Madison and elsewhere because this would show that victories are possible and that defeat in front of this bosses offense is always inevitable. If this was shown it would undermine the entire propaganda of the union leaders and weaken their control of the movement. They prefer defeat to this. ... read full story / add a comment

This is not a call for philanthropy. This is a call for solidarity to 300 proud and brave people who are determined to sacrifice their life in order to claim their right to a better future. They want the same thing our forefathers wanted when they decided to migrate. They are not strangers, they are not invisible, they are not disposable. They are dignified human beings who teach us a hard lesson about true struggle. ... read full story / add a comment

FF, FG, Labour, ex-PDs, and other shades of establishement opinion are putting themselves forward as 'independents' in the upcoming election to Seanad Éireann. The mask of 'disability campaigner' or 'human rights advocate' is unfortunately the last refuge of some of them. This is most obvious on the university constituencies. Here I have outlined the party loyalties of some of them. ... read full story / add a comment

The countries of the Middle east and North Africa are rising up and crushing their imperialist imposed stooge regimes. They are forcing their way into modern history. We are witnessing the changing of the world. If you are not celebrating then you have a serious flaw to your system. ... read full story / add a comment

Beyond the political and financial classes, Irish people’s response to the crisis has surprised many on the Left, especially in the UK. Looking to riots in Greece last year, and more tangentially, the revolts spreading like wildfire across the Middle East, why, they ask, has Ireland not been more restive? Why, with joblessness running at over 13% and 1,000 people emigrating every week, did it take two years, and the intervention of the IMF, for mass street protests to take place? Where is the anger, why has Yeats’s ‘passionate intensity’ been monopolized by Fine Gael, a party of the rural and middle classes? ... read full story / add a comment

Despite the opportunities presented to the Irish radical and revolutionary Left by the current economic climate and people’s anger with the Government, financial establishment and other authorities, the electoral landscape for the Irish Left is bleak indeed. ... read full story / add a comment

Please print AFAR's poster calling on all voters to make use of their vote to keep Fine Gael out of power. The majority of normal people do not want Stag hunting legalised again, even if the ban is not being enforced. Place this poster in a prominent place to let people know how cruel they intend to be , that is if they get into Government. They want STAG-HUNTING back!!! Its really unbelieveable. ... read full story / add a comment

With the election coming up many people are planning to firmly boot Fianna Failure out and there is strong indications that people are not happy with any of the main parties. Therefore we should see the smaller parties and the independents having a real chance. But do they or can this unravel because of the way we pick our preference votes? ... read full story / add a comment

Dan Boyle, formerly Bertie Ahern's choice for senator, is running for election in Cork South Central once again. This means he has to present a justification of his and his party's record as part of this government we've suffered for getting on four years. One of the ways he has been doing this is through his election literature, some of which I received in the post only this morning. After reading it, I must say I was surprised at the level of grandiose self-delusion on display in this leaflet! ... read full story / add a comment

A very timely and useful analysis of how Sinn Fein policy has moved significantly to the right in relation to the EU has appeared in the current edition of the Socialist Voice. It looks at how the party is now heading towards the right on the EU and that drift to the right is not an accident and will not end there. This has implications for republicans and socialists in this country and for all Irish people especially with the projected increases in SF support in the national elections next week. ... read full story / add a comment
