Pathetic PEGIDA.
Above: rabble’s footage of the fascists legging it off can be seen on Youtube. Elsewhere, Flickr user BagelCurry shared an album of gorgeous monochrome shots from the demonstration yesterday too. So, after all their online bluster and hype yesterday saw a pitiful turn out from PEGIDA, while their scattered far-right sympathizers were forced to cower in the side streets of our capital. When it came down to it pathetic PEGIDA were … Read More
Road To Ruin.
We shared some photography from the height of the Newbury Road protests 20 years back earlier in the week. Here’s something that came back with us from a Youtube sink hole afterwards. It’s a classic dose of mid 1990’s video activism, just straight up rolling footage of a protest with a few interviews thrown in.

It’s all kicking off down in Jigsaw, a new space in old Seomra Spraoi building. Here’s their blurb for the night time event: “The townsfolk have been coming into the Gramophone saloon and telling tales of the O’Brien gang riding up to the homesteaders and … Read More
They’re After Our Right2Water.
Should you have a right to water or is the Sunday Times’ economist spilling the beans on the government’s plan following the next election? Cormac Lucey of The Sunday Times seems to think people who don’t pay their water charges should get their water cut off. Take a look at this video posted by Facebook user Brian Ó Huiginn. Give it a click to view it. Remember the, ahem, leaks to … Read More
Art Students Are Revolting.
NCAD Students are looking to have words with Declan McGonagle, the Director of NCAD today. So, what’s the background to all this? A student who forwarded the above letter to us said: “If someone was writing something, a good reference point is this article celebrating the rise in student numbers at the college.
