Kilkenny City centre came to a standstill last Saturday afternoon as an Ógra Shinn Féin rally passed proudly through the streets of the City. The rally assembled outside Kilkenny Castle, the Norman home of the Butler's of Ormond. Those present listened intently as the rally, chaired by ÓSF local organiser, Peadar de Bluit, was addressed by Lisburn City Councillor Paul Butler, and Carlow / Kilkenny SF General Election candidate Kathleen Funchion, both of whom spoke about the significance of the Hunger Strike and the legacy left by it and the duty of those left behind to strive for the Ireland for which those 10 young men and indeed many patriots died for during the centuries of occupation by a foreign force. ... read full story / add a comment

These are published as perameters for the fifteen member committee which contains three women, one TD(fine Gael) and two senators. The'CC' case prompted an expected constitutional crisis, wherein the 1935 legislation pertaining to the 'honest mistake' mechanism was allowed in the case of someone accused of statutory rape but of an age with the victim. Justice Mary Laffoy had no option within the perameters of that legislation but to release 'CC'. ... read full story / add a comment

Yesterday he attended the closing arguments of the trial and made a statement in their support.
