SNP should stop supporting flawed counter-terrorism programme, says SACC

New Zealanders come home - you are needed. Human rights need to be ‘turned on their head’, a bottom-up rather than top-down approach. People need to be informed that human rights determines their income. Below - submission to the UN HR Committee re New Zealand’s human rights record reviewed at present. Social class discrimination condoned by UN, global elites. New Zealand on track to third world status unless plan below is put into effect.

So apparently the original press statement Glasgow’s Labour Council were going to release regarding Stephen Purcell’s resignation described a “chemical dependency” of his as being the reason for his standing down. Of course, SSY is in no position to make any informed comment regarding such accusations. We can however, make informed speculation as to what the chemical dependency may or may not be. Of course we have to make clear that the chemical dependency could be one, many, all or none of these things.

Incredibly, the European Commission intends to declare oil palm plantations as forests. The obvious trick aims at wiping aside the worldwide opposition to the destruction of rain forests to use the land for oil plantations – according to the motto: no forest is being lost.

Thank you to all those who have supported the Edinburgh Chiapas Solidarity Group in 2009 and best wishes to everyone for 2010!

In March this year some members of the Edinburgh Chiapas Solidarity Group will be traveling to the Autonomous Zapatista communities in Chiapas to visit the communities and see how their struggle for a dignified life is progressing, to observe the current state of human rights in Chiapas, and to discuss how we here in the UK can continue and improve our support for the Zapatista movement of Mexico's indigenous south.
