Why Are Popes so Soft on Migration? Mon May 12, 2025 15:00 | Dr Roger Watson
Pope Leo, like Francis, is an open borders enthusiast for whom it seems no migrant should be turned away. Why are senior churchmen so blind to sense and deaf to public concerns on border security, asks Prof Roger Watson.

From ?Horrific? to ?Dogwhistle?: Lucy Powell?s Change of Tack About the Rape Gang Scandal Mon May 12, 2025 07:00 | Laurie Wastell
In 2013, Lucy Powell described the rape gangs as "horrific". Twelve years later she dismissed the issue as a "dog whistle". To get ahead in the Labour Party, you?ve now got to throw white working-class girls to the wolves.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3Amy Goodman, presenter and founder of the globally syndicated award winning radio talk show 'Democracy Now', said that ....if the media took one day, only one day, and showed the real cost of war on their screens, the dead children, the agony, the sheer destruction of human life and the dead US soldiers that this war would end the day after... because Americans dont have the stomach for it........
...I say no one has who is in posession of a concience can stomach it.
Instead, well fed fat faced network 'anchors' (well named), sit and postulate on the finer attributes of the military. They oooze a misplaced, pseudo patriotic dedication to American Forigen policy and politicians. They are the first to attack any who dissagree, even those whos families have lost members in Bush's war of terror are humiliated by US network TV if they come out against it.
Bush himself chickened off to the Texas Air National Guard to avoid Viet-Nam, and then went awol from there.
He hasnt been to a grave yet. Rumsfeld, Cheney, Wolfowitz and pearle order millions of deaths and neither of them get a spot of blood on themselves.
They say they make 'Brave Decisions' .....but under neath it all they are cowards as are all political leaders who send others to do their diryty work...
Well done michael Gallagher, I'm looking foreward to the exhibition in Dublin I heard about, Is this the same person?? paul.
I wonder could this thread be sent to ex Taoiseach Aherne, new TaoiseachCowen, Harney , ODea and mabey the Bush supporting Green contingent . Even Mary Macaleese, who rattles on about human rights like she gives a shit about them, and stands idly by as our constitution goes down in flames along with he protections for human rights and our non involvement and non participation military conflict....at least without a UN resolution....
She actually supports this along with her husband in their complete silence, as does the church and Ratzinger who remained silent on the issue when visiting the epicentre of global terror recently, and our politicians-on both sides of the house now.
For what died the sons of Rosin??
Zoriah has had his "embed" status taken away from him and been flown back to America from Iraq for posting images of dead American soldiers (victims of a suicide attack in Fallajuah) on his blog.
He was interviewed on DemocracyNow.org yesterday about it.
