Thank Lockdowns for the Worst Budget in History Sat Nov 22, 2025 13:00 | Will Jones
We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

- That would be the point of the exercise, Eoin. Always has been, always will.
The revolution would have happened but I forgot to set my alarm!
You're a disgrace!
I was intending going to that protest but I just didn't get out of bed in time.
How did it go?
Well done for organizing this demo. I hope it goes well!
Journalist Robert Fisk's article "How The League Of Nations Ended Up As Debris" (http://www.zmag.org/content/showarticle.cfm?SectionID=11&ItemID=2427), and lawyer Karen Kenny's paper "Ireland, the Security Council and Afghanistan: Promoting or undermining the international rule of law?" (http://www.ihrt.org/docs/Afghanistan%20.doc) remind us how scandalous Ireland's "see no evil..." policy on the Security Council was.
I attended part of a recent anti-war demo (when it got to the US Embassy in Dublin) and couldn't help but feel frustrated by the experience. The weather was crap and it was the end of a long march for lots of people, so perhaps that's why spirits seemed so low. Frankly, it looked more like a recruitment fair than a demo though.
Catholic Worker Ciaron O'Reilly opined at a talk a few days earlier in Liberty Hall that those waging war had upped the ante and it was time surely for us to match that at least and *wage peace*. I think that's what Jesus meant when he said he'd come with a sword too, no?
I hope that the demo tomorrow goes well because it is an important point to make. Also though I hope that people take the opportunity to prepare for actions they can do to directly withdraw their consent for the bloody slaughter.
So what if the Irish capitalist establishment had a seat on the UN security council! They are capitalists, the UN is a capitalist institution. Stop sowing illusions in these institutions and build a workers movement that can stop this war.
No war but the Class War!!
