Do you guys have an organisation in Ireland?

The Anarchist Federation in Ireland merged with the Anarcho-Syndicalist Federation and Anarchist Prisoner Support to form Organise!

You can contact us at organiseireland@yahoo.ie if ya wanna.

All the best;

Hey Greasy,

The WSM is another anarchist goup in Ireland. - www.wsm.ie
We have 3 branches in Dublin and one in Cork as well as contacts all over the place. We are busy getting other branches set up around the country at the minute too. We are active in lots of campagins (rossport, weelocks, pro choice etc) as well as in our unions and communities.
We produce a paper every two months and a bi annual magazine.

The other anarchist group that springs to mind is the radical anarcha feminist goup (RAG). The are based in Dublin and hold women only discussion circles on a weekly basis produce a magazine.

eta: Sorry guys. Just noticed that this was in the AF forum.

WSM is organised in the north and south and so too (at least until recently?) is Organise, both organisations certainly aim at being all island in spread. In terms of making a choice the best thing would be to review the publications and activity of each, you'll get a good idea of what is going on from their respective web sites and I'm sure both organizations will provide further detail if you email / meet them.

actually it's slightly more complicated Isn't it always? But, if you like the AF's politics, you'll probably find Organise closer to you. In the end, though, the important thing is to be actively working in a group. You'll probably find enough in either group you agree with, but as I say, Organise is closer to us - though not the same.

yeah Ogra WSM lol

true dat, give'm enough rope.

Still I'm dissapointed i was hoping for something more along the lines of Continuity Organise!

Sorry I wasn't aware Organise! claimed to be a direct continuity of Organise-IWA, they are different organisations.

Still atleast it's you that will be treated to Bobby's quasi Maoist rants and class analysis now.

Good Luck.

How many teachers, lecturers and students are in the WSM? Better not tell Bobby.

We aren't the equivalent of the AF in Ireland, members of the AF disolved themselves into a new organisation.

Also as far as I'm aware the AF have got Irish members, no?

hardly turning them away, just being honest, there are a few differences between Organise! and the AF politically, we certainly wouldn;t want people thinking we are the Irish equivalent, especially since they have a member in Ireland and all.

yes i'm reminding GDID.

Great thread!

I'm not too sure what they are. Organise are more syndicalist. I'd really like a chance to meet up and discuss things face to face. Presumably as we operate in the same political entity there ought to be enough common issues?

seconded with much gusto.

I think this is an interesting idea. Speaking with my International Secretary hat on I think that if you want this to happen the best thing would be to send us an email. wsm_ireland (at) yahoo (dot) com
