4PR - Voice of the People: Recent Episodes
Workers BushTelegraph
4PR - Voice of the People is for setting up a dialogue. Like music, political radio is a strong form communication, one way to organise. It is also an educational medium without distraction save for the human voice. At critical times it can be a great help to people, during bushfires, floods and health crises. It is a very warm and personal medium and can defuse violence and help prevent war.

Israel's refusal to released tax revenue from Gaza and the West Bank has forced the Palestinian Authority to stop paying wages to over 155,000 public servants. Abbas has also postponed elections because Israel would not allow them and also because he would lose to a new group in the Fatah movement. The leader of this group, Marwan Barghouti was jailed some years ago and remains in solitary confinement … postponement of the elections makes mockery of the two state solution relied upon by social democratic parties throughout the world as the way forward. We include an article by Ramzy Baroud about the situation in Palestine.
