offsite link The Strange Death of Knowing Stuff Wed Dec 24, 2025 19:00 | Dave Summers
In his Sixth Form Christmas quiz this year, none of Dave Summers's students could name the author of To Kill a Mockingbird ? previously one of the easy questions. Another sign that wokery is dissolving our culture.

If Christmas songs fall foul of Labour's 'banter ban', Christmas carols ? with their 'offensive' assertions of the divinity of Christ that are deemed blasphemous by Islam ? are even more likely to, says Julian Mann.

Keir Starmer is preparing to tie Britain to the EU's Net Zero plans in a move that would impose radically stricter 'green' energy targets on homes and businesses, leading to further deindustrialisation and impoverishment.

offsite link A Crappy Christmas from Anglian Water Wed Dec 24, 2025 13:17 | Mike Wells
Dumping of sewage into rivers is supposed to happen only 'exceptionally'. But in Odell it occurred for over a third of the year. In Bedford it may be worse ? but the monitoring equipment is broken, says Mike Wells.

1% Network open meeting

category dublin | anti-capitalism | event notice author Friday September 03, 2010 10:20author by 10fthe99% Report this post to the editors

The 1% Network will be holding an open meeting to discuss and organise the walking tour around the heartland of the golden circle. If you want to help publicise the tour and are interested in hearing more about the 1% Network then come along to Seomra Spraoi at 7.30pm, Thursday 9th September.

The tour itself takes place on the 9th October and will take in the private mansions, corporate headquarters, secret meeting spots and private banks of the 1% who own 34% of the wealth.

---

The 1% network is a coalition of socialist groups which has come together to oppose the cutback agenda of the government and to promote a socialist alternative to the current socio-economic system. The name of the coalition was chosen to highlight the fact that just 1% of the population control in excess of 34% of the wealth of the nation. Organisations within the coalition include:

Irish Socialist Network
Revolutionary Anarcha-Feminist Group
Seomra Spraoi
Workers Solidarity Movement

What is the difference between this and the social solidarity network that was formed at the end of last year? Has the SSN disappeared?

Can't make the meeting myself but this looks like a very good and necessary initiative. Hope no one minds if I throw in my twopence worth on the subject of the name?

It's an excellent idea to highlight the 1% who own most of the wealth and power in Irish society especially when everyone else is telling us to look at fellow working people as the enemy (public sector workers, asylum seekers, etc etc). But if the idea is to organise the 99% against the 1%, then shouldn't we be the '99% Network'? Doesn't that emphasise that we are the vast majority, that we want to organise that vast majority against the tiny minority in control? Isn't it better to name it after our side than to name it after the enemy?

This is just a suggestion and it's not really a big deal. I just thought I'd speak now then forever hold my peace. To be honest you could call it the Bonzo Dog Doodah Band and I'll still be with you if you're organising any decent fightback.

Whats the purpose of the walk?

Sounds interesting. Unfortunately I won't be there on the date because I live too far away. But I would like to see an account of the tour. Anyway, good luck.
