Until the last few years of the 1990s Ireland had the reputation of being the most sexually repressed country in Europe, where women were second class citizens and the Catholic church ruled virtually unchallenged. But things have changed fast. A national survey in 1973-1974 found that three out of four people thought sex outside marriage was always wrong. A survey in 1997 found that 21 to 24 year olds had, on average, had 13 different sexual partners.1 In 1990 Dublin's Virgin Megastore was fined £500 for selling condoms. In 1999 the Dublin government spent £500,000 promoting the use of condoms.2 While Gordon Brown felt it necessary to get married to enhance his chances of becoming prime minister in Britain, the Irish taoiseach (prime minister), Bertie Ahern, lives openly with his (unmarried) partner who accompanies him on state visits as 'first lady'. ... read full story / add a comment

"Resources and reform must go together." [1] There has been a lot of grand sounding talk up at Stormont about the need for 'reinvestment and reform', with mention of PPP/PFI's (Public Private Partnership and Private Finance Initiatives) and using private sector expertise and investment to help sort out our historically underfunded public services. ... read full story / add a comment

I spotted this article on the Press Association newswire. The author's name was not included. And before Ray goes for the jugular, I couldn't find any mention of the story on PA's website (www.ananova.com)... The story is pretty watered down by PA's refusal to use language critical of Israel, but the facts are intact. ... read full story / add a comment

Those of you aware of the beauty and serenity to be found on our national monument the Hill of Tara will be concerned to learn that the noise pollution there is will increase considerably if the proposed M3 Clonee/North of Kells Motorway goes ahead. As it is the traffic passing on the existing Navan - Dublin road is quite audible from many of Tara's sacred sites. Apparently, the proposed M3 will pass within TWO MILES of serene Tara. ... read full story / add a comment |
