The History of Connolly Books The culture of 1930s Ireland were not receptive to socialist ideas. From the first Coercion Act (1930) under the Free State government of William Cosgrave's Cumann na nGaedheal to de Valera's @fiannafailparty, socialism was considered subversive.

First Thornberry. Now this one. They know a reckoning is coming, and they're scrambling to save themselves. But the archives don't forget - and they don't lie.

This is so revealing and good. Next time a pundit or politician in Ireland pronounces about China, ask them to name three famous Chinese people.

This Friday will mark two years since we played the Palestinian National team at a sold-out Dalymount Park. ❤️🖤🇵🇸 It was a great match, it raised a huge amount for 3 Palestinian charities, but it was much more than that. For all those present it was a moment beyond football, it was a demonstration of the very best of sport. Over the course of several days connections were made between our club and Palestine than endure and have strengthened. The Palestinian players were welcomed to the Mansion House by the Lord Mayor of Dublin and to the Áras by the President of Ireland. We heard their stories of living under brutal apartheid in the West Bank, and we heard about the horrors of Gaza. Later this year Ireland is due to play Israel - get behind the #StopTheGame campaign and oppose playing an apartheid state.

When we think of a kilted soldier, we will almost definitely think of someone very different from Ian MacKenzie Kennedy. He was no representation of the clichéd Scottish martial spirit. He was a soldier in the Irish Republican Army. New from Stephen Coyle connollybooks.net/product/th…
