08-03-2013 15:24 | Occupy Everywhere | Analysis | Social Struggles | Sheffield | World

Our first hour is a presentation by Noam Chomsky on the emerging world order in which USA is dominating the world's remaining energy resources in the Middle East and in which this same militancy is being aggressively visited on resistance at home. In our second hour, we look at the anniversary of the occupy movement and the efforts underway to build grassroots resistance to the stranglehold of the predatory elite financiers.

Philippine Gov’t lacks political will to go after the Marcoses

07-03-2013 12:28 | Analysis | Repression | Social Struggles | World

One can understand Andres Bautista’s deep frustration in wanting to abolish the Presidential Commission on Good Government, which he has headed since October 2010, although — or because — it has failed to accomplish its two-pronged mandate, 27 years after President Cory Aquino created the PCGG through Executive Order No. 1.

UG#620 - Sex And Drugs And Mental Health (Sex 'Addiction' and Broken Brains)

03-03-2013 05:35 | Analysis | Health | Social Struggles | Sheffield | World

Audio

We hear three different perspectives on the Mental Health of the US population - and indeed upon the American concept of 'mental health. Is it a matter of fixing broken brains with carefully targeted drugs? Our speakers agree that the US public have been profitably misinformed by professional experts full of ideas about how they should and shouldn't behave.

UG616 - The Secret, Silent Poisoning (Nuclear Victims in Peace and War)

15-02-2013 05:13 | Analysis | Anti-Nuclear | Ocean Defence | Sheffield | World

Audio

We hear how not only the Japanese but also the Marshall Islanders continue to suffer as a result of the US military's determination to assert its nuclear superiority, whatever the cost to human life.

13-02-2013 13:00 | Analysis | History | Social Struggles | Sheffield | World

Audio

We left off our reading of David Graeber with the statement that "The logic of money was granted autonomy. Political and military power were then gradually reorganized around it". This week we look in more detail at what that meant, focusing mainly on the USA in the 19th and 20th centuries. As well as reading more from Debt, The First 5000 Years we hear a few words from Ivan Illich and the first half of a radio adaptation of a video on the Banking Cartels and the US Federal Reserve.

Israel Fuels Syrian Fire, Risking Regional Outburst

07-02-2013 07:14 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Palestine | World

Israel is either trying to escalate militarily to embroil an unwilling United States in the Syrian conflict, in a too late attempt to pre-empt a political solution, out of a belief that the fall of the Al – Assad regime will serve Israel’s strategy or to establish for itself a seat at any international negotiating table that might be detrimental in shaping a future regime in Syria.

Cowardly EDL Try To Disrupt Manchester Anti-fascist Gig #EDL @TheRamanShackle

31-01-2013 03:35 | Analysis | Anti-racism | Migration | Liverpool | World

Alas! The end of the EDL is nigh! The priest has been called and the last rites have already been served on this pathetic excuse of a far right football-powered bootboy organisation. Bearing this in mind, a small pod of fascist footsoldiers have insanely decided they want to go out with all guns blazing in a heavily anti-fascist student area of Manchester. They intend to violently disrupt the anti-fascist benefit gig happening on the 9th of February at the Ram and Shackle pub on Wilmslow Road, Manchester. This is a very popular student pub frequented by a solid anti-fascist 95% student audience from Withington and Fallowfield.

28-01-2013 17:35 | Analysis | History | Social Struggles | Sheffield | World

In our first hour, two speeches from the first conference on Modern Money Theory in Rimini, Italy. In the second, we continue reading from David Graeber's Debt, The First 5000 Years.

The Imperialist Assault against Africa and its Origins

25-01-2013 22:10 | Analysis | Anti-militarism | Terror War | World

It immediately crystallises awareness when in the age of panapocalyptic austerity and fictional accounting calculus someone is trying to strike a big deal with the fascist state. Not that the topic of prisoner release was not a fertile field for direct action, as any targeting of the cancer which is eating up imperialism from within, but an expectation based on the mutual balance of demands seems quite odd in regard to states which cannot even balance their own currencies, budgets and economies. Any concept of a rational state or remnant thereof from the past has long devolved into a mud hole of infantile dementia with no other agenda than sabotaging every political alternative to it. What is the point in asking a mud hole to release prisoners?

Coming on a neighbourhood near you the first POVERTY REPORT 2013

25-01-2013 12:36 | Analysis | Social Struggles | London | World

Clegg has been making sideways appearances again. Thanks to the BBC and the Guardian. But Clegg is up to here in collusion with the Big Looters robbing the ordinary, the little people and then making us feel morally stigmatised “because” we have been robbed!
