Taxpayers Are Charged for the BBC Whether They Like it or Not Sat Nov 22, 2025 11:00 | Charlotte Gill
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.

World Kindness Day may have passed you by. But it won't have passed by your children, whose school will have been sure to teach that climate action and open borders are essential elements of 'kindness', says Steven Tucker.

What Happened When Extinction Rebellion Had a Taste of its Own Medicine Fri Nov 21, 2025 17:00 | Anonymous
Read what happened when an Extinction Rebellion meeting was disrupted by a protester. Seems they can give it out but have no intention of putting up with it themselves.

"I'm firmly convinced that an urban society would be unable to function at all without a government. Libertarianism, to me at least, seems like a much more sensible course of action."
a convincing argument, but...
anarchism (according to the variety that some subscribe to) is essentially libertarian communism.
i don't think that urban society (with pollution, traffic, homelessness, overconsumption, a political structure based on appropriation, etc. etc.) currently operates very effectively, and that is with lots of government.
besides, most anarchists don't oppose government exactly. anarchists oppose those forces which appropriate control of government ("anarchy" = no ruler). in a more anarchist society, there may be no "government", but simply for the reason that everyone participates actively in "government" political processes.
now, if you excuse me, there is trash on my urban street which needs cleaning up.
"We believe that an anarchist revolutionary insurrection was ultimately necessary to achieve a free and equalitarian society. "
Until you think about it.
I'm firmly convinced that an urban society would be unable to function at all without a government. Libertarianism, to me at least, seems like a much more sensible course of action.
A press release about the meeting will be issued in the next couple of days.
thanks for your input!
what time is the organizing meeting on the 18th?
If you are looking to set up autonomous anarchist cells/groups then a first step would be to get involved with the people already doing stuff here. A good start would be on Apr 18th for the Mayday organising group in the Teachers Club for the Grassroots. Although there are other autonomous anarchists in the city, they dont really have any formal structure for contact, the GG meetings are the best place to start.
Bowl a strike, not a spare — Revolution everywhere!
The original Revolutionary Anarchist Bowling League, RABL, was founded in Minneapolis in the mid-1980s. We are now planning to establish an Irish group this summer.
We were a revolutionary anarchist collective that participate in various actions locally and nationally. We are anarchists who believe in anti-authoritarian organization against racism, sexism, homophobia, and capitalism. We believe that an anarchist revolutionary insurrection was ultimately necessary to achieve a free and equalitarian society.
If you anyone is interested in helping to establish RABL in Ireland, please email me or keep an eye out for me on May Day and on all the demos during the Bush visit to Ireland.
