Just a quick note to let you fine people out there, caught up in the world wide web, that we are now tweeting as well, on the twitter machine. You can follow us (please do) @BelfastSickPoor. Also, feel free to comment on our twitter handle, is it a bit too ‘blue’? Not historical enough? How does one come up with a suitable, catchy and relevant name that demonstrates our purpose while attracting people at the same time?

There will be research updates here soon! Also a review of The Spirit of ’45, the new film by Ken Loach about Britain’s social welfare system. See the movie website for more, http://www.thespiritof45.com/. It is currently playing at the Queen’s Film Theatre, and elsewhere around the British Isles.
