The Labour party has overtaken Fianna Fáil in the recent TNS/MRBI poll. The first time in the history of the state. A historic moment for those interested in the wider labour movement (as opposed to the revolutionary movement olr the labour party). I am not too familiar with the methodology behind this poll but I assume it is a fair and honest reflection of the electorate at the present moment. The TNS/MRBI poll predicted the outcome of the last election with relative precision.

Fianna Fáil’s satisfaction rating has plummeted to 14 percent. 62 per cent want a change of government. The support for the parties is as follows: Fianna Fáil, 22 per cent (down 5 points); Fine Gael, 32 per cent (down 2 points); Labour, 24 per cent (up 10 points); Sinn Féin, 9 per cent (up 1 point); Green Party, 4 per cent (no change); and Independents/others, 9 per cent (down 4 points). The message is simple: the electorate want Fianna Fáil out of office. read full story / add a comment

The Irish Congress of Trade Unions has issued its 10 point plan for a fairer, better way to deal with the national economic crisis. For all non-revolutionaries that want to develop a practical-realistic way out of our current economic crisis I imagine this plan for a national recovery will be of particular interest. read full story / add a comment

The Irish Congress of Trade Unions (ICTU) has called a National Day of Action for Saturday, February 21st over the Government's Pension Levy, the lack of protection for Private Sector Pensions and the Cuts Generally. March Assembles Garden of Remberance, Parnell Square, Dublin at 2pm. I'm calling on all (all workers, private and public sector, the unemployed, those who've been affected by the cuts generally, the voluntary and community sector and the general public) to attend in mass numbers to show this 'Government' that we're as mad as hell, and that Saturday, February 21st is only the start of a long war of attrition. read full story / add a comment

People Before Profit Alliance in Ballyfermot and Clondalkin are calling on local people to support busworkers and fight cuts to the bus services in their area.
Dublin Bus is to lay off 300 employees and cut 120 routes across the city. This amounts to one tenth of the total bus service. Route 78A will have at least 20 departures per day cut from the existing timetable. Everyone knows that this is one of the most used buses in Dublin. There will most certainly be longer gaps between bus services on the 78A. On top of this they are getting rid of the 210 Route which connects the people of Clondalkin with Tallaght hospital.

As anyone in the hinterland of UK politics will have noticed, one of the House of Lords UK Independence party wanted to invite Geert Wilders the far-right Dutch parliamentarian with the ugly hair and uglier politics to show his "Fitna" vid this afternoon in Westminster.

But then the UK Home Office decided he was persona non-grata. Ooooo shock & horror a society, which like many in Europe faces an increase in far right politics and anti-migrant opinion against the backdrop of economic collapse, has now turned to debating whether or not he should have been allowed past the passport desk in the name of "Freedom of Speech". read full story / add a comment

Braving the cold this afternoon, five sexy PETA activists stripped off nearly naked and urged foie gras-peddling Selfridges to ‘Have a Heart’ for ducks and geese this Valentine’s Day. The topless girls (including model Monica Harris) and one dishy guy handed out delicious vegan chocolates and roses to passers-by who just couldn’t help but stare – and take photos on their mobile phones, of course! read full story / add a comment
