Journalist union backs Gilligan

28-01-2004 16:29

watch out for this notorious lying freemason
So Andrew Gilligan gets the blame. Shoot the messenger. What a waste of public time and money the enquiry has been. What a whitewash. It has since come to light - without any shadow of a doubt - the dossier was grossly 'sexed up' and used to dupe public and politicians to go to war. The question should now arise WHY has Hutton failed to see the blindingly obvious. And why has he still failed to declare his membership of the masons?

Interns' Network: Working for free in Westminster

28-01-2004 16:29

At any one time there are around 3000 people working for free in parliament, think tanks, ngos and the political media. These organisations are supposed to be the heartbeat of our democracy but to get a job, people are expected to work for extended periods for free. This creates a huge barrier for people from poorer backgrounds. The Interns Network wants to make internships more transparent, fair and fun. You can subscribe for weekly updates of jobs, events and news by emailing  interns_network-subscribe@yahoogroups.com. Visit www.internsnetwork.org.uk for more details.

“Oh look, another Hutton Whitewash. We paid for your war with our education”

28-01-2004 15:49

“Oh look, a another Hutton Whitewash. We paid for your war with our education”

So the hutton report was a whitewash and let Blair off the hook, as most of us have come to expect from the establishment looking after its own.
Don't trust the Sun, especially after Blair's faustion deal with Murdock before Blair came to power and Murdock got his media deals.

"Trading Freedom" Film Screening

28-01-2004 13:13

Scots against the FTAA
8 pm, Sunday 8 February @ the Forest Cafe, 3 Bristo Place, Edinburgh

8 pm, Monday, 9 February, venue changed to Mono Cafe, 12 Kings Court, King Street, Glasgow, G1 5RB

"Trading Freedom: the secret life of the FTAA" offers an explanation of the Free Trade Area of Americas, a proposed economic zone that will regulate the economic activity of one-sixth of humanity, overriding local democracy in favour of "rights" for multinational corporations throughout the Americas. This film is the story of those who resist - indigenous struggles, working-class organizations, women in rebellion, media activists, and a huge network of NGOs.

"Footage from Chiapas, Quebec City, Sao Paulo, Akwesasne and Tijuana, plus the combined efforts of over 100 videographers, photographers, free radio outlaws, writers, editors, techs, and rabble-rousers make this the perfect evening out." -- Luther Blisset

The film is presented by the film maker from Cambridge Imc and by the Edinburgh Chiapas Solidarity Campaign, Indymedia Scotland, the Camcorder Guerillas, and the Glasgow Chiapas Solidarity Group.

In addition there will be a screening of "Voice of the Voiceless" - a documentary film about Radio Insurgente and footage from the latest FTAA protests in Miami.
