Keir Starmer says he will never withdraw from the ECHR because there is "no need" and Rishi Sunak did not disagree, despite it being the reason he failed to stop the boats. Nigel Farage says it's time to ask the people.

A Swiss girl has been been taken into care because her parents stopped her taking puberty blockers, breaching a ban on conversion therapy. Is this what Labour means by a "full, trans-inclusive ban on conversion practices"?

Net Zero is Impoverishing the West and Enriching China Wed Jul 24, 2024 13:30 | Will Jones
The West's headlong rush to jettison fossil fuels and hit 'Net Zero' CO2 emissions is impoverishing us while enriching China, which is ramping up its coal-fired industry to sell us all the 'green' technology.

The Threat to Democracy Wed Jul 24, 2024 11:29 | James Alexander
'Populists' like Donald Trump and Nigel Farage are a "threat to democracy", chant the mainstream media. In fact, they are just reminding our politicians what they are supposed to be doing, says Prof James Alexander.

Here's hoping the cyclists have a trip to remember, and thanks for all the solidarity.
On their way to Mayo - Merthyr abú! Madrid abú! Shell chun Sáile abú!
Some scenes from the piece performed by the cyclists in the park.
what gardai were involved in pressuring the cruiscin and how did they go about it. If we don't name names then they get away with it.
lovely camera work Ray, thanks !
i must say it was a sight for sore eyes seeing everybody cycling up patrick street in the middle of cork city, music playing,banners and flags flying and smiling faces, i was buzzing with energy just after watching ye all nice one for having this great idea in the first place and then doing it people!
as for the guards..yes v we have his name. as for publishing it here on indymedia if that's what you're asking us to do, what action to take will be discussed at our de-briefing, there are other people involved in the issue surrounding this incident to consider.
its worth noting we didn't have interference from the regular guards on the day even though we were expecting some. we did have one quite shocking incident with a garda in an 'armed response unit ' vehicle who, when approached by a campaigner with a leaflet quite aggressively refused to take it, and when said campaigner then left the leaflet on the bonnet of the vehicle, the garda lost control of himself with rage shouting and getting white in the face...these guys are armed, people, and they are on a hair trigger
later on in the cycle a motorist lost control of herself with road rage and ran over one of the groups' bicycles, with the rider still on it but luckily unhurt, causing 180 euros worth of damage and not even so much as apologising for attempting to kill someone, in fact was full of righteous indignation at being told her insurance would have to pay, and was more interested in whether her bumper had a dent than if she had hurt the cyclist because she thought she had a right to run over a bicycle who wouldn't get out of the way of her car.
well this is what we're here for, not only to highlight environmental issues but also the mental issues arising from abuse of power on every level
great cycle though lads and good luck and love for the rest of your trip, see you in Rossport!
Welcome to all cyclists from Merthyr and Madrid and everyone else joyning the group from Ireland!!
We are looking forward to seeing you all in Gort with that vibrant energy!

BP's 'Top Kill' attempt to tame their blowout has failed.Still no accurate figures to quantify.Seems to fluctuate from BP's 1000 barrels a day up to some academic estimates of up to 100,000.Estimating another two months for their next shot in the dark to hopefully have effect.Lets hope Obama has the cojones to use this shit to put manners on the oilygarchs.Doubtful.Meantime the mainstream is studiously avoiding the flotilla to Gaza.
