March 21 is the start of the New Year in Iran. IUF, Education International, the International Transport Workers’ Federation (the three international union federations with member organizations in Iran) and the ITUC together send a message of solidarity to all Iranian workers fighting for trade union rights and independent unions: “Today, New Year in Iran, the international trade union movement sends fraternal greetings to you, our sisters and brothers, fighting for basic worker rights against an oppressive regime. For daring to speak out and to exercise your right to form trade unions, to represent and defend your interests and to bargain with employers, Iranian workers have been sacked, arrested as criminals, tortured and imprisoned. Some, like Kamangar*, have been executed; others await their execution; and the threat of death and possible judicial murder hangs over all those who seek to challenge misery and oppression by organizing at their workplace for collective action. read full story / add a comment ![]()

Gerry McGeough was convicted last month of attempted murder of a UDR soldier in 1981 and faces up to twenty years in jail. There is a widespread concern that his arrest is as a result of his campaigning against the Northern Ireland Police Force and about Sweden's release to the British authorities of an application for political asylum to that country in 1981, the contents of which were used to convict him. read full story / add a comment ![]()

Canada's pride lies in the maple leaf, but its shame lies in the annual slaughter of hundreds of thousand baby harp seals. Canada’s baby seal hunt has started and this year it seems to be more vicious and cruel than ever before—the hunters have gone desperate. Every year, baby seals, some just weeks or a couple of months old, have their delicate heads violently smashed in with a club or a sharp pole only to have their fur skinned from their bodies, often whilst fully conscious. This year, yet again, tens of thousands of baby seals will die—but you can stop it. read full story / add a comment ![]()

"Purpose in the Age of Uncertainty" is the title of David Korowicz's talk at the Cork launch of Feasta's "Fleeing Vesuvius", this coming Monday lunchtime in the Central Library. In the just-published North American edition Richard Heinberg describes Fleeing Vesuvius as a "goldmine". It is a rare resource for the dark times ahead; one that allows, not false hope, but a way to face the future with purpose - when the systems as we've known them can no longer provide the road map. As well as the publication of the North American edition of the book (by New Society Press), a New Zealand/Australian version will be published shortly, proving that Fleeing Vesuvius has both regional and global relevance. Please pass this event on to your friends and colleagues, thanks. read full story / add a comment ![]()
