offsite link Labour Must Halt its War on Pubs Tue Sep 09, 2025 19:30 | Will Jones
One pub is closing every day. And Labour's 'banter ban' ? Clause 20 of the Employment Rights Bill ? is only going to make it worse as pubs are left with the escalating bills to cover their legal costs.

Ben Ansell, in Why Politics Fails, outlines "five traps of the modern world and how to escape them". Professor James Alexander wonders how he can escape yet another book that tries to save the world with Left-wing dogma.

offsite link The African Countries Demanding Reparations Are Astonishingly Hypocritical Tue Sep 09, 2025 15:46 | Will Jones
The African Union's demand for colonial reparations is an act of cynical opportunism that ignores that slavery was already endemic in Africa, and African kingdoms resisted abolition even as the British forced it on them.

Public Meeting hosted by People Before Profit: Save Hellfire Club and Massey's Wood

Our local natural heritage is threatened by 'development'

Save Hellfire Club and Massey's Wood

Speaker: Richard Boyd Barrett TD
Chaired by: Dr Peadar O'Grady

The Mill Theatre, Dundrum
beside Dundrum Shopping Centre

Wed 22nd March 8.00 pm

Join The Solidarity Campaign

South Dublin County Council and Coillte in conjunction with Failre Ireland plan
to turn the grounds of both Massey's Estate and the Hellfire Club into a major
tourist attraction,, including a large 'interpretive centre' with a restaurent
and shop; a sky-bridge that extends over the road between the two grounds and
a car park for 300 cars; all in a part of South Dublin forest of great natural
beauty and with huge local and natural heritage value for its flora and fauna,
recreational value and archaeological sites.

People Before Profit in Dublin Rathdown have started a campaign in the Rathdown
area in solidarity with The Hellfire Club Action Group and Friends of Masseys Wood
to save this natural wilderness from over-development. We want development of trails
and transport links so that more people can enjoy this natural amenity while
protecting this fragile environment from commercial exploitation

People Before Profit Dr Peadar O'Grady said:


"If we allow commercial development here it may well open up other wooded areas
such as Ticknock to commercial development or building projects, which would
be a tragedy. We can learn a lot from other campaigns like Bulloch Harbour and how
they used People Power"

Speaker: Richard Boyd Barrett TD
Chaired by: Dr Peadar O'Grady
