Video: EU aim to increase it's military power

Video of Paul Murphy, MEP, Socialist Party (CWI Ireland)  -  Over the past number of years, there have been increasing moves towards militarising the European Union, both within the Union but also with a view to the EU playing a much bigger, dominant role in world politics, both politically and militarily. In the video below, Paul Murphy explains why he voted against the resolution on the Albertini Report which deals with the Common Foreign & Security Policy of the European Union which highlights the need for the European Union to increase its military might as well as allowing for military missions to be launched in the name of the European Union.

Ireland - Local launches of the United Left Alliance

"The United Left Alliance is being launched through out the country with a number of regional election rallies following its very successful launch in Dublin last month. We expect these rallies will bring hundreds if not more into the ranks of the ULA and strengthen the challenge of our candidates across the country. The ULA is a force on the ascent that will really put its stamp on the Irish political scene in 2011. Make sure to come along to your local rally, and get involved."
