Ahwazis Against Iranian Islamic Theocracy

22-03-2005 17:31

The Ahwazi Arabs are among the world's most persecuted minorities. While global attention is fixed on the Israel/Palestine conflict, the Ahwazis go unnoticed. The indigenous Arabs of Iran are gagged and are denied the right to learn their own language or publish their own newspapers. They live in poverty, their land ritually confiscated by the theocratic regime in Tehran for the profits of foreign oil companies and the enrichment of an ethnically Persian religious elite. Who will listen to the Ahwazi voice?

Spoil Your Vote

22-03-2005 15:23

Spoil Your Vote is an idea whose time has come. Its aim is simple: at the next general election, whenever it may be, we want to get all those people who think their votes don't count - people who didn't vote in 2001, or people who voted for no-hope candidates - to get out and spoil their votes.

22-03-2005 10:08


Victory for unions as Government backs down changes to pensions and retirement age, could be the first of several more victories.

The degenerating state of the British economy, and the reckless neo-liberal economic policies of New Labour mean there should be many more battles to be fought over the next few years, no matter who gets re-elected on MAY 5.

Solidarity between Unions, Workers and their supporters will make success possible so that the lives of British people are improved, and they become more conscious of the road to a better future
