The power outage in Spain and Portugal wasn't caused by extreme weather, but by an over-reliance on wind and solar. If the UK continues on its headlong path to Net Zero, we can expect similar failures.

Why do we fail to deport those whom we should deport? It's due in the end, says Dr David McGrogan, to an excess of pity. We are pitying ourselves into disorder and social decay. We need to be willing not to be nice.

Support Palestinian political prisoners

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | press release author Friday April 16, 2010 13:16author by Republican Sinn Féin International Rel.

Statement on annual Palestinian Prisoners Day

The Republican Sinn Féin International Relations Bureau sends greetings to all Palestinian political prisoners in Israeli Zionist jails on the annual Day in support of Palestinian Prisoners.

April 17th is marked as Palestinians Prisoners Day. All over the world people will rally for the rights of the political prisoners in Zionist jails. Activists and supporters of Republican Sinn Féin will take part in these rallies to show their support with the struggle of the Palestinian people.

In a statement Dieter Blumenfeld, spokesperson of the Republican Sinn Féin International Relations Bureau, said: “In 2010 Palestinian prisoners have started an important struggle. On April 7 a number of Palestinian prisoners went on hunger strike to demand the recognition of their right as political prisoners.

“Just few days before the Palestinian prisoners stared their protest; Irish republican prisoners started a protest against the inhumane conditions in Maghaberry jail. As the Palestinian prisoners Irish republican prisoners of war demand political status.

“Irish Republicans in British jails and Palestinians in Israeli jails are fighting the same struggle. They fight against criminalisation of their anti-imperialist struggle. The imperialist superpowers try to portray Irish Republicans and Palestinian prisoners as criminals. That’s an attempt to label the Irish and Palestinian liberation struggle as ‘terrorist’.

“Irish Republicans and Palestinian prisoners are no criminals, they are freedom fighters. The imperialist powers work together in their attempt to criminalise political prisoners and the liberation struggle of the people. Irish Republicans have to stand shoulder to shoulder with our comrades in Palestine to gain victory in our anti-imperialist and national liberation struggle.” Blumenfeld said.

Críoch/Ends.
