Why I Fear What Labour Will Do to the Education System Sun Jul 28, 2024 11:00 | Stephen Curran
We are facing a radical agenda set by the progressive wing of the educational establishment, says Dr Stephen Curran. We should build on the past 14 years' foundation, not tear it down.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6"People like you" says Charlie O'Connor to correct me if I'm mistaken Gregor Kerr of WSM. It's the other way round Charlie , it's people like YOU that are destroying our communities and the fabric of our society. It's people like YOU Charlie and people of your ilk and their actions and almost psychopathic lack of emphaty that causes suffering for working people. I'm not too aware of his past actions as a TD but his behaviour from the video is pathethic. That statement and the look of utter contempt he flashed at the young fella exemplifies the mentality that we're up against in this country. A seemingly untouchable oligarchy of gombeens and their slightly more intelligent masters sneering at the 'dreamers' and 'lefties'. But hey it's no skin off of their teeth , their kids won't be walking over used syringes or going hungry and cold. Fuckers.
Great work as always Paula.
Having participated in the Demo ,which then turned into an open air disco (my type of my protest!) I am very proud to have been involved.
The energy, noise, colour and determination of eveyone there was infectious.
I was mightly impressed with the rapper on top of the van(again my type of protest).
It was magnificent to see so many young people caring so much about each other, their communities, their projects, and fighting to defend the services for the generation to follow them.
The passion and articulation of the young folk that addressed the demo was inspiring. To know there is a generation of young people determined to stand up for themsleves and their communities was a privilige to witness.
With young people like that prepared to take a stand passing the baton on to defend our communities in the future, will be in safe hands.
Well done to everyone who organised and took part in it.
Hi folks, if you want to publish a report, photos or videos for a mainly youth audience please give us a shout at http://www.spunout.ie. We're keen to hear from young activists and will be gearing up later this year to better support young people who want to make a difference in this changing times.
Charlie is pathetic. He has a shameful defense too, ''I'm a Dubliner'', ''I'm entitled to walk the streets''.
A couple of thousands years of philosophical and political debate turns to this...
Well done to the organisers....
Well done to the protest participants...
Well done to Indymedia and the author for publishing the protest....
But.......
Ive been at most if not all protests organised over past 12mths against proposed cuts to public pay,against actual cuts to public pay and the protests against cuts to Community Development Projects.I would have most definately attended this one particularly but.....I knew nothing of it.Was it advertised generally?
