Peter Lynch was the grandfather who killed himself after being jailed for being rude to a police officer in the Southport riots. Why, asks Laura Perrins, was he convicted in 18 days but Bob Vylan hasn't yet been charged?

offsite link Gas is Dirt Cheap. Only Politicians Make Energy Expensive Sun Jul 27, 2025 07:00 | Ben Pile
Gas is ? or should be ? dirt cheap because it's abundant and easy to extract, store and transport. Only politicians infected with the neo-Malthusian green mind virus make energy expensive, says Ben Pile.

SDLP Youth To Oppose Bush Visit

category national | anti-war / imperialism | press release author Friday June 13, 2008 17:17author by SDLP Youthauthor email liam.mcnulty at sdlpyouth dot comauthor phone 07749330303 Report this post to the editors

SDLP Youth will take part in the upcoming demonstrations to protest at the visit of US President George W. Bush on Monday 16th June.

Announcing the decision to protest, SDLP Youth Campaigns Officer Liam McNulty said:

"As the party of civil rights we will not be welcoming the visit of a man whose contribution to rights and liberties includes the Patriot Act, illegal wiretapping, 'extraordinary rendition' of terrorist suspects and Guantanamo Bay."

"We opposed the war in Iraq and believe that George Bush has unleashed a humanitarian disaster on the people of that country, has radicalised young men across Europe in a way which harms our own national security, has fundamentally damaged stability in the Middle East and has done untold damage to the global economy."

"SDLP Youth puts great importance on social justice and we are resolutely opposed to Bush's policies which can be summed up as tax breaks for the rich and tax burdens for the poor. For all their socialist rhetoric we are dismayed at the decision of Sinn Féin's Deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness to extend an invite to visit the North of Ireland to such a man."

"We would call on any right-minded person to join us in our protest on Monday to oppose the President's visit and for politicians to consult their consciences before extending the hand of friendship a man many consider to be a war criminal."
