While we have been repeatedly told what a great financial boon to the Irish economy and the Shannon region in particular there is from allowing US war business there, it now turns out that the total take for all warplanes in 2002 was a measly 9 million euro. Just enough to buy one of the eight new turbo propellor training aircraft for the Air Corps. In total Minister Smith on January 16 2003 gave 60 million of our euro to a consortium of mainly Swiss Bankers for something we don't need while chldren need proper schools and the sick need proper and prompt care . He even spent 6 million on improving the runway for the arrival of his new toys! ... read full story / add a comment

The Catholic Worker 5 appeared in Aer Og court this afternoon, near Ennis. Deirdre, Damien & Nuin all received bail of 3000 euros each. The conditions are that the three will have to sign on at their local Gardai station twice a day, are banned from entering the county of Clare and can not come within a one mile radius of the US embassy. Although someone in the court room offered Karen a local address she was remanded on the grounds that she has no fixed abode. Ciaron has also been remanded as according to the judge he is far too 'passionate' about what he believes (and damn right too!). Next court date set for 21st of February. ... read full story / add a comment

pat kenny has just repeated the notion ,live on air ,that the catholic workers assaulted a guard last monday in Shannon Airport. He had a panel of supposed 'media experts' on with him, discussing the weeks news .This included former minister for justice and PD leader Des O Malley - a Limerick man! I rang in , tried to inform the person answering the phone about the fact that his claim of assault was wrong, but he (Kenny) didn't retract his statement. This guy has researchers working for him! He earrns something like 1/2 million euro a year (correct me if I'm wrong on that figure) to be an accurate and competent broadcaster ,and still ,almost a week later, him ,and his panel of experts claim that a panic attack by a garda is in fact an assault by a pacifist. ... read full story / add a comment
