–More on the Venezuelan revolution.

–The British “neo-Labour” party’s values are not in-line with the majority of the people of Britain. The people must drag their party back to the Left.

–Join with Labour and demand action to prevent the loss of manufacturing jobs now.

–Canada is becoming a job-loss cemetery. We must demand action to stop the flow of manufacturing jobs overseas. Fighting the Security and Prosperity Partnership and the Gateway projects are a first step. Write to your member of parliament and your local NDP riding to voice your concern that this is not being debated and a firm stand against is not being adopted.

–Duncan Cameron on the current state of the Canadian political system.

–The people of Venezuela must stand-up to the media moguls and demand that the public airwaves not be used to incite violence. The only reason that violence is being used here is because that is the only way the right wing knows how to respond to its power being taken away. The people must stand united and must stand opposed to the lies coming out of the corporate media.

–A move forward. The people must have the first and last say in the writing of the constitution and community assemblies should be the place for the discussion to happen.

–There continues to be no action what-so-ever on the ground that is actually helping the people of this country. Troops out now.

–Sarkozy is going to wrap all of his anti-worker policies in this kind of shine. We need to expose him at every turn.

–One question: Why doesn’t the government do it with the help of the community? It seems that if big businesses are going to come in then they are going to do it on the cheap and there is no guarantee that the people will actually get what they want and need.

–Castro is continuing his writing campaign to educate the world on the issues. Have a read.

–Class analysis is still as important as ever if one wants to understand the system and why it is failing the interests of the majority.

–The reality is that the people have complete control over the granting of the rights to use public airwaves. If the majority of the people want those airwaves used for public media instead of coup-leading private media then that is their right. Support the people of Venezuela and support the decision to remove RCTV from the public airwaves.

Despite the nonrenewal of its broadcasting license, cable and satellite broadcasts will still be available to RCTV; moreover they will continue to broadcast through their two radio stations in Venezuela. The new broadcasting license is being given to a public station, TVes-Venezuela Social Television, which will run shows produced mainly by independent parties. The station will be controlled not by the government, but by a foundation of community members, with one chair reserved for a government representative. TVes also hopes to reach into some of the most remote areas of the nation, not covered before by RCTV.

–Tell Harper where Canadians stand on the issues.

–Only through solidarity can we end the attacks on our health-care workers.

–Main question: Why is Cuba’s health care system the best in the world? Answer: it is free, and Cubans live longer than most and in better health than most. Read how it is done.

–Chomsky’s propaganda model lives on. In fact, you can see it in the coverage of the canceling of the RCTV’s public license and even in the coverage of the Propaganda Model Conference. Have a read.

–The power of the press should be used for peaceful purposes to expose corruption and provide indepth information to the people. It should not be instigating coups just because the owners of the media think that it is in their personal interests. Support the majority in Venezuela and demand democratisation of the media.

–The leadership went to Browne but the next-in-line is not so tied up.

–We continue to be unsurprised. Anything is better than a neo-con for the position at the World Bank… wait, he is a neo-con (he worked for the Center for Strategic and International Studies)

–Liberal democracy is all about advertising… no one should be surprised… but they should be mad.

–Nice.
