Debt relief ought to be at the centre of negotiations over a New Deal for Greece. That has been our government’s mantra from 26th of January, our first day on the job. Exactly five months later, on 26th of June, the IMF has conceded the point (as evidenced earlier today by the NYT) – on the very day Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras called for a referendum so that the Greek people could reject an IMF-led proposal that offered no… debt relief.
The IMF’s latest debt sustainability analysis (DSA) is a fascinating read:

Britain is under siege, the headlines tell us: foreigners are sneaking into Britain from “the Jungle” in Calais, taking British jobs; stretching Britain’s public services to breaking point; endangering Britain’s children with their excessive criminality. Time and again Parliament has tried its hand at placating the press and the public, and the policies of the last two governments have followed suit, explicitly designed as they are to “create a really hostile environment” for people “with no right to be here”.
The “hostile environment” is brought into being by the wider national conversation on immigration, and by the state’s machinery of immigration control. The possibilities of settling here as a skilled worker, to access healthcare, a bank account, a driver’s licence, safe housing, and even education; in the government’s own words, everything a person needs, have become contingent on whether or not a person can…

Sustainable living in full sunshine as the Indian Summer continues in the West of Ireland. The back door remains open and the rain barrels stand empty.
This has been the driest September I have recorded in the ten years spent here at Bealtaine Cottage.
There is something afoot in the climate…it has changed into a series of extreme weather events.
And so we must adapt as best we can, for there is nothing being done by governments here in the west.
It’s all talk and taxes!
The majority of people I have spoken with are concerned, but not to the point of implementing real changes in their lives.
People appear to be looking to others, to see what changes are being implemented and then tending to follow suit, to a greater or lesser degree.
In this respect, I feel energized to keep writing my blog, to let people see that…

Our eyes met
for a moment
yours old and scarred
mine wanting to rest on your rough boards
clear lines have blurred
an era’s memories stirred
nature is reclaiming the land
where you proudly stand
change means breaking
splintering you and shaking
that world which you knew
so well

In an Urgent Action published by the Fray Bartolomé de Las Casa Center for Human Rights (Frayba) on 30 June, the Center expressed its concern “for the new attacks and death-threats against support-bases that comprise the Zapatista Army of National Liberation (BAEZLN) in the communities of El Rosario, belonging to the Rebel Zapatista Autonomous Municipality (MAREZ) of San Manuel; and Nuevo Paraíso, MAREZ Francisco Villa (official municipality of Ocosingo), who pertain to the ‘Path of the Future’ Good-Government Council (JBG), located in the ‘Toward a New Dawn’ Caracol III of La Garrucha in the Tseltal Jungle Zone of Chiapas. Due to the omission of the municipal and state governments to attend to the problem and to take up their responsibilities, there exist risks to the life, integrity, and personal security of BAEZLN.”
On 10 May, according to information published by the “Path…
