Call For People of Sheffield to Show Their Support for Organ Donation

NHS Blood and Transplant | 28-01-2010 13:02 | Health | Sheffield | World


An NHS roadshow takes to the streets of Sheffield this week to call on people to prove their support for organ donation and join the NHS Organ Donor Register (ODR). The travelling roadshow is part of a UK-wide campaign to close the gap between the number of people who say they’d be willing to accept an organ if they needed one – 96% - and those who have pledged to donate by joining the ODR, currently 27%.

Iraq Enquiry: Sir Michael Wood Damns Blair, Straw and Croney Goldsmith

Craig Murray | 26-01-2010 14:37 | History | Iraq | Terror War | Sheffield | World

Sir Michael Wood confirmed today that the consistent advice from the FCO's Legal Advisers was that it was illegal in international law to invade Iraq without a second Security Council Resolution following UNSCR 1441. He also made plain that he consistently over two years advised both Blair and Straw direct that the war would be illegal.

A Politician Should Not Rule on the Legality of War

Craig Murray | 25-01-2010 12:55 | History | Iraq | Terror War | Sheffield | World

Tomorrow morning, Sir Michael Wood, former Foreign and Commonwealth Office Legal Adviser, gives evidence to the Chilcott Inquiry. To my mind, this is the most important evidence to be given so far. Michael's then deputy, Elizabeth Wilmshurst, who resigned over the war of aggression, will give evidence in the afternoon, I believe speaking in public for the first time since her resignation.

Anon | 24-01-2010 17:31 | Social Struggles | Workers' Movements | Sheffield

Protocol is a temp Agency used up and down the county by public sector employers to provide temp staff- primarily to avoid staff accruing pension rights- it is therefore especially insidious that they are allowed to discriminate on the basis of age.

Craig Murray: Jack Straw's Biggest Lie

Craig Murray | 24-01-2010 09:29 | Iraq | Terror War | Sheffield | World

I was a British Ambassador at the time of the events covered by the Iraq Inquiry. I know many of the witnesses and a great deal of the background. I can therefore see right through the smooth presentation. Jack Straw was the smoothest of all - but he told lie after lie.

The Boiling Frogs | 22-01-2010 13:10 | Analysis | Energy Crisis | Terror War | Sheffield | World

Dr. Nafeez Ahmed provides us with an overview of the role played by US military and intelligence practices in the creation of terrorism, particularly Al-Qaeda. He tells us about the status of investigations into the Blair government’s complicity with the Bush administration in supporting the invasion of Iraq. He discusses possible factors behind Americans’ long-held denial and dismissal of dark US foreign policy practices as conspiracies. Mr. Nafeez talks about the Obama administration, the ongoing posture of US corporate interests and the desire to dominate world energy supplies, the so-called liquid bombing plot and how it was mythologized in the US, and more.

How Alternative Media Provide the Crucial Critique of the Mainstream

Richard Keeble | 20-01-2010 14:28 | Analysis | Other Press | Sheffield | World

On January 4, Tim Luckhurst, former BBC journalist and current Professor of Journalism at the University of Kent, wrote an article in the Independent with the dramatic title, ‘Demise of news barons is just a Marxist fantasy.’ Luckhurst argued that leftist critics are gleefully predicting the end of corporate journalism:

“There will be no further need for newspapers or broadcasters to host debates and represent public opinion. The internet will let every citizen speak for themselves. The masses will seize the means of media production. We will witness an era of revolutionary change.” ( http://www.independent.co.uk/news/media/opinion/tim-luckhurst-demise-of-news-barons-is-just-a-marxist-fantasy-1856668.html)
