Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4Nice to see someone on the left take this up. Its an epidemic and I believe root causes are directly linked to our system of exploitation, oppression, and marginalisation. Amomg People most likely to commit suicide are long term unemployed, prisoners, homeless people and young gays.

'Article I wrote on 'suicide and depression in Ireland' here '
Utterly depressing article from a Socialist mecanistic approach, little to do with humanity. Is this all the SWP can offer and what makes this man think hes qualified to write on the subject?
All the best in the Campaign.
I also provide a link to an article I had written re - localised - it is good to see that Ogra are launching a National campaign on this essential issue. ATB D
