No Hierarchies Here! Anthony McIntyreHaving went along to an IRPWA protest on Saturday in support of better conditions for republican prisoners, it was impossible not to have my memory cast back to 1981. People excluded from the establishment[base ']s seductive benefits, nepotism and patronage - the big brown envelope that the Good Friday Agreement came in - and who march in support of jailed republicans always conjure up the image of 1981.

The West Belfast Festival: Feile debate sticks firmly to party lines Newton EmersonHonestly, I've no problem with the West Belfast Festival. It's completely harmless, a good thing even - certainly preferably to the annual Internment Day Riot it[base ']s successfully replaced. So if I'm feeling slightly paranoid here at the 'West Belfast Talks Back' debate, it's my own fault entirely. There's no reason to be scared of Danny Morrison any more.
