The BBC's Director of Comedy wants to "save the sitcom". But the sitcom is only endangered because most of them stopped being funny. As To the Manor Born reminds us, British comedy has lost its class, says Finlay McLaren.

Is the era of cheap internet surveys over? A new paper demonstrates that AIs can now be "trivially programmed" to answer online surveys in ways that are essentially indistinguishable from humans.

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.

It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

IT heads call for College fees to come back

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Wednesday January 22, 2003 15:24author by Billy from Athlone IT - AITSU Report this post to the editors

Time to Occupy the Campuses!

Today's Irish Examiner has the full story.

The Head of the Council of the Directors of Institutes of Technology, Dr. Mary Meaney, has said that the Government should reintroduce college fees.

Following on from University heads such as Dr. Art Cosgrave (UCD) and Dr. Seamus Smyth (Maynooth) this shows that most, if not all of the Colleges are against their own students.

Screw occupying government buildings, lets take over the Colleges!

Where a college head comes out in favour of fees or a graduate tax the SU should organise oposition. Students should occupy, protest, boycott lectures, tutorials, practicals etc.

The SUs should get active and get militant on this issue. Students can defeat fees if they get organised alongside trade union activists and community activists to fight the government's agenda of cut-backs.

Where the SUs are full of self serving hacks you should organise a camapign of students against the government's fees
