Drip, Drip, Drip, the reasons were many and constant to examine the popular support for Irish owned airline throughout its growth. Its tawdy treatment of disabled passengers. Its poor worker relations in other countries and preference for non-unionised workforces. Its current struggle with the Irish Airline Pilots Association. Its history of fraudalent advertising. Again and Again it has proved to be "the unacceptable face of capitalism". This morning Ryanair will close a deal with Boeing to purchase at a cost 4.5billion€ a fleet of aircraft. Thus proving a clear commitment to the arms industry, war economy and utter disloyalty to the European project. ... read full story / add a comment

This is a link to the list of recalled foods from supermarkets. The food is found to have a cancer causing food dye Sudan1. It is being taken off the shelves and if you have any of it at home, even if you bought it months ago, don't eat it. Supermarkets in the Uk are offering refunds if you return with the wrappers, I assume they are doing the same here. ... read full story / add a comment |
