It just goes to show the difference which is made , Willie Frazer has been granted by a judge to parade on 3 different marches and his bail relaxed , lets not forget , not only the flags issue and while on bail and broke it by appearing and speaking at those protests , he is also charged with having a stun gun , minimum sentence for that is 5 years as it is classed as a weapon. It's back to the old days , one law for them , no law for us.

Willie Frazer allowed to attend events

I have no time whatsoever for the organisations this man appears to support. However, I do not agree with his current prison status. The bail conditions offered were miles away from any decent standards.
Irrespective of my political differences Stephen should at the very least be given credible bail conditions.

whilst I do not agree with Stephen's outlook he is being held in the most dubious of situations. The so-called bail constraints were way off the mark.
This young man should be released on humanitarian grounds.

Mick,

this type of thing does show the face of the state we have long said existed. Unfortunately many of those who once strived for justice now stand four square with the unjust and this allows the state to mask its more hideous side

Yes, a very good piece I will repost it on Organized Rage tomorrow if that is OK. When the state starts going to these lengths and arrests people like Stephen (echoes of internment roundup) it shows the thing they fear is the type of protests we have seen elsewhere in the world spreading to Ireland and UK.

We should not ignore the fact they managed to divert the arab awakening in Libya and Syria by inciting and arming an armed insurrection which they believe they can control.

Marty,

I met Barry at a conference last weekend and a had a chat with him. The Australians are not behind the door in defending the rights of republican prisoners

Superb post Steven, it clearly shows that the "New Beginning" is nothing more that mere words and if anything it seems we have been transported backwards to pre 69 and the Draconian laws of the Special Powers Act,I took the Chairman of the Melbourne branch of the JCCA Barry Kearney to Seomra Staire an Lorgain last night, on arrival he was given a phone and he had a long good chat with Martin Corey who sends his regards to you all and asks you keep up the good work, I can tell you now that Barry was totally blown away and he has photos of himself holding a velletri rifle used in the GPO in 1916,Jim Mc Ilmurrays exhibition is more than a collection its an education! I was looking at a lobster tail helmet of the type worn by Cromwell and the roundheads and I was thinking to myself about the plight of our political pows and the line from the song "Cromwells men are here again" and I asked myself "Did they ever fuckin leave ?"
