offsite link Is the War Against Iran in British or European Interests? Sun Jun 22, 2025 15:00 | Noah Carl
A collapse of the Iranian state would not be in Britain or the rest of Europe's interests. There could be another mass exodus of refugees to Europe?just like the one in 2015, only larger.

Dominic Cummings has given an interview to Kamal Ahmed in the Telegraph about the sclerotic British state. It's the usual critique that by now we're all familiar with, but cannot be repeated often enough.

According to Police Scotland, the police aim to ensure "everyone is able to flourish knowing they are valued for their true and authentic selves". No wonder they're so useless at fighting crime, says Dr David McGrogan.

offsite link Beware the 3.5% Rule Sun Jun 22, 2025 07:00 | James Alexander
The anti-Trump No Kings protests cling to a '3.5% Rule' that claims tiny minorities can topple tyrants. It's yet another ridiculous generalisation by a political scientist, says Prof James Alexander.

Joan Collins, a Dublin City Councillor, is running for a Dáil Seat in the Constituency of Dublin South-Central. The General Election is coming soon - on Friday February 25.

Joan is a People Before Profit Candidate, part of the United Left Alliance (ULA), which is tipped to win six ore more seats in the new Dáil.

Joan hit the media headlines by interrupting an RTÉ interview with former Taoiseach and Fianna Fáil Leader Bertie Ahern ...about his last days in Leinster House, headquarters of Dáil Éireann, the Irish Parliament :

With the ULA what you see is what you get - an independent left-wing campaigning group which will never enter coalition with right-wing parties such as Fianna Fáil or Fine Gael.

We are very hopeful Joan's campaign will be successful, but nothing can be taken for granted.

Elections cost money - we're running a table quiz to support Joan's run for the Dáil :

Thursday February 10, 8.30pm, in the Teachers' Club,
36 Parnell Square, Dublin 1

An ideal preparation for Valentine's Day - which is a theme of this quiz - dress for the occasion!

It costs only €5 per person to participate, and there will be a raffle.

You could help, if you wish, by

donating a prize (or two!)

telling your friends, comrades, sisters, brothers...

sending us a donation even if you can not attend

And - the politics of the campaign?
