offsite link ?Offensive? Christmas Songs Could Fall Victim to Labour?s Banter Ban Sun Dec 21, 2025 11:14 | Jonathan Barr
Festive revellers may have to be careful which tunes they pick for a Christmas sing-along down at the pub, as songs like ?Baby It?s Cold Outside?, ?Do They Know It?s Christmas??, and ?Jingle Bells? might offend the staff.

Podcasts are great. But by leading us to spend our time wearing headphones listening to others chat, they're leaving us more isolated than ever, says Joanna Gray. What we need are podcasts that bring us together.

Mainstream media has largely ignored two recent events that would have attracted sustained media attention in the past. Half a million Hispanics and other protesters flooded the streets of LA while in France a staggering three million protesters confronted the authorities. These protests occurred in quick succession but barely rated a mention in the popular press. Activists and analysts have been aware for some time that the independence and impartiality of the mass media has been compromised. Regardless of the magnitude and impact of a specific event, if it is considered to be incompatible with certain interests, it is disregarded. read full story / add a comment

This is a monumental sea change in consumer protection policy in the USA, necessary to correct and prevent more neurodegenerative damages from Aspartame, the artificial sweetener which is metabolized as formaldehyde and methanol.

Just google: UNITED NATIONS UNDERSECRETARY GENERAL FOR NUTRITION, to read the Resolution, and if you want to see Ireland as a cosponsor for placing the Resolution on the Agenda for September, write to the President, Prime Minister, and Foreign Minister.

Daily Ireland March 29th 2006 - www.dailyireland.com

In the early days of the conflict letters would frequently pop up in the local papers from ‘Catholic Mother of Ten, Bogside’, ‘Disillusioned Republican’ and ‘True Patriot, Crossmaglen’ attacking the republican movement and overtly or implicitly praising the ‘peace-keeping’ efforts of the RUC/British army. The letters were so gauche and written in such a strange idiom that they fooled few republicans who correctly assumed that they came from the British army propaganda unit based at Thiepval Barracks in Lisburn.

Other stories appeared in the media alleging that IRA explosives officers could get cancer from handling nitro-benzine (a major component of home-made explosives) and that the nylon underwear worn by women IRA Volunteers was prematurely setting off detonators. A Sunday Mirror in 1973 headline read, ‘Danger in those frilly panties’. read full story / add a comment

The people’s movement in LA, France, Thailand, China, Philippines, the South Americas etc., verifies a power dynamic outlined in an earlier paper:

“…the erosion and final dissolution of power concentrated in specific locations is rapidly occurring today. The ultra-right/left authoritarian contractionism we witness today is symptomatic of its failure to harmoniously engage the greater (world) dynamic. The ‘greater’ the contractionism/antagonism the greater attraction it creates for precisely those forces and conditions that would equalise it [dispersion] in the broader world context.” read full story / add a comment

Blair’s speech in Oz parliament today was notable for its familiarity – nothing new, same ol’ same ol’ shite. Wait! I think there was something that may have been a Freudian slip in reverse, Blair pleaded with a crumbling support base not to ostracise the yanks as they may “lift their drawbridge” (what a laugh). In order to survive, the voracious beast of Capitalism MUST feed off weaker nations, destroy the environment, wreak havoc and wage war to sustain its (military) economy. The world needs America like it needs a hole in the head; by all means Tony, let the yanks implode on themselves; allow the blood-sucking star-spangled-fangs to sink into its own neck; it would be a most entertaining spectacle. read full story / add a comment

‘Marxists’ for another Labour Party
The March 19 launch of the Socialist Party’s Campaign for a New Workers’ Party went according to plan, writes Peter Manson. The 450 comrades who signed up to its founding declaration overwhelmingly voted for the SP’s plans for a Labour Party mark two.
Putting forward the agenda for the CNWP conference, the Socialist Party’s Dave Nellist pledged from the chair that the organisers would “do our best to make sure minorities are heard”. But also, he said, “in particular the voice of the ordinary workers will be heard today”.
