As a diversity pick thrice over ? female, black, South Asian ? with no popular mandate, Kamala Harris is the perfect candidate for the modern Democratic Party, says Ramesh Thakur. The election is Trump's to lose.

The book tour will begin in Charlie Byrne's bookshop in the Cornstore, Middle Street. Each week the tour will visit a different venue, taking in Limerick, Cork, Dublin and Belfast. An event will also be held in London next month followed by a tour of North America in April.

Vincent McGrath, one of the Rossport 5 said: "We see this book tour as a wonderful opportunity to inform the public about the real issues surrounding the Corrib gas project that is being imposed on our community and the implications this has for other communities throughout the country. We're looking forward to meeting in person, the people who have stood by us and who continue to support our right to live free from fear in our own homes."

China's President Hu Jintao re-establishes trade links with Africa vowing not to interfere with the sovereign rights of African nations. The net result of this soft approach is African nations clamouring to the Chinese whose trade links with Africa extend thousands of years into the past. Archaeologists have uncovered the remains of large African port cities containing artefacts and trade material from China and Africa. Large amounts of ceramics, ivory, gems, precious metals and a wealth of other artefacts reveal a long history of lively and thriving two-way trade between the two continents. read full story / add a comment

On the 7th of February of 1986, the Haitian people, after years of revolt against the rich and the powerful in their country, toppled one of the most brutal dictatorships that history has recorded, the one led by the Duvalier family. But not only they did put an end to the US-backed reign of terror of the Duvaliers, but as well, the people were pushing forward a series of popular demands that were meant to radically change the face of Haiti: this was a truly revolutionary struggle.

Today, Haiti is again under the yoke of oppression: this time, under a UN military occupation called MINUSTAH, headed mostly by subservient Latin American governments, but engineered from the US and France, the main imperialist powers controlling Haitian affairs. read full story / add a comment

Statement by Des Dalton Vice President of (Republican) Sinn Féin Poblachtach

The visit to Dublin on February 5 of a member of the British royal family, Andrew Windsor, can only be viewed as part of the normalisation of British rule in Ireland. Staged events such as this are used to support the pretence that British rule in Ireland is now accepted by the Irish people.

In order to survive we must eat, when there is a plentiful supply of food we live in the knowledge that since variety is the spice of life and food is in abundance, there is nothing to think about and less to worry about. Despite our preferences towards organically grown produce, modern 21st Century life styles dictate that the foods we eat must be readily available, possibly precooked and ready for consumption at the click of a switch. read full story / add a comment

The independent documentary Loose Change [1] is doing the rounds in screenings and downloads (over 4 million apparently for just this version on Google Videos) [2]. Despite overwhelming testimony from independent scientific experts as publicised by Counterpunch [3], Popular Mechanics [4] and South Park [5] the documentary is spreading a pall of confusion and misinformation about 9/11.

Yesterday I was horrified to see that politic campaigns are getting started and soon we will have to endure giant billboards of Michael McDowell face scaring us at every turn. Something you would not want to run into in a dark alley. But this got me thinking about a serious question, should political parties have anything to do with Students’ Unions? read full story / add a comment
