Justin Trudeau wants to prorogue Parliament to buy time before the election. Voters will punish him for it, says Prof James Allan, but it's a mistake he must be allowed to make without activist judges getting in the way.

Protest in solidarity with Valencia students - against police violence

category dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | event notice author Friday February 24, 2012 09:57author by Camelin - RDNI Report this post to the editors

Who? Real Democracy Now! Ireland
What? Protest in Solidarity with the students in Valencia who where brutalized by police.
When? Saturday 25th February @ 3 pm
Where? Central Bank of Ireland, Dame Street, Dublin 2.

On Tuesday 14th a peaceful protest against budget cuts in education in Valencia, Spain ended in bloody police repression. Images conjured up memories of Franco’s brutal dictatorship. Squads of riot police violently assaulted a group of some 300 students (most of them minors) arresting at least 26 and leaving scores injured. The brutal repression of peaceful protesters by police forces is becoming an increasingly familiar scenario not only in Spain but in many other supposedly democratic countries in Europe. While markets dictate to governments and austerity is imposed driving people to mass unemployment and poverty, any attempt to voice dissent is met with violent repression by the state forces. While this may not yet be the case in Ireland the repression has been very visible in Greece and in Spain and has relevance in Ireland too as the voices of dissent gradually become louder.
We want to say that we stand in solidarity with the people of Valencia and that this type of violent repression by police will in the end only further reinvigorate our resistance.
Join us in this solidarity protest. We are outraged and we will not tolerate any violence from the police forces against the civilian population.
We stand or fall together. There is strength in unity.
