32CSM Day Of Solidarity For Basque Political Prisoners

Members of the 32CSM from around Ireland and across the water in Manchester, were on the streets today to highlight the plight of the protesting Basque political prisoners held in prisons throughout Spain and the Basque country.

Political prisoner Patxi Ruiz has been on hunger and thirst strike from the 11th of May and the situation is deteriorating daily, not only with Patxi's health but with more people joining the protest both inside and outside the prisons.

On the 12th of May political prisoners Dani Pastor, Oskar Barreras and Aitor Cotano began to refuse food, two more prisoners Jon Kepa Preciado and Mikel San Sebastian joined the protest that weekend.
On the 18th of May Oier Andueza and Mikel Izpurua joined the protest.

International pressure needs brought to bare on Spain and we here in Ireland more than anyone given our history regarding prison struggles, know how important this arm of the Basque struggle is.

Everyone here in Ireland who claims to be for human and civil rights needs to do their bit no matter how big or small, to send a message to the Spanish government about their treatment of the Basque people.

Beir Bua.

32csm Support For FLQ

50 had organized a march to commemorate the heroic struggle of the Front de Liberation du Quebec for the 50th anniversary since the October Crisis. International supporters of the 32 County Sovereignty Movement (32 CSM) were there to affirm our support. The FLQ has struggled by all means at their disposal to establish a Socialist Republic in Quebec. As in Ireland, imperialist exploiters want us to believe that this fight is barbaric and futile. But we say loud and clear that it is the imperialists and their system of misery that is barbaric! Let's fight for socialism! Beir Bua.

Support for Venezuela

The 32 County Sovereignty Movement send our congratulations and continued support to the PSUV (United Socialist Party of Venezuela) and Nicolas Maduro as he begins another term as Venezuelan president. The moment Hugo Chavez was elected president of Venezuela the US and its proxies got to work to try and undermine the Bolivarian Revolution. The last thing they wanted was Venezuela giving hope and inspiration to other countries in the region to rise up and take control for the many and not the few, as had happened in Venezuela. What we are seeing now is the reaction from the US and its puppets to the latest election results and a continuation of their disrupt and suppress policies. The elections last year were described by international independent observers as free, fair and transparent and was acknowledged as such by the many world leaders who were there this week to see Nicolas Maduro being sworn in for another term. On the other hand you would laugh if it was not so...
