Peter wanted an excerpt from a letter about Palestine , published with this article, it contains a quote by Terence Mac Swiney: "It is not those who can inflict the most but those who can endure the most who will conquer" The heading and date of the letter, which was published in an Irish newspaper recently was torn off, he retains some of the body of it, because of its pertinence to his case. Someone brought it to him during the course of the week. Day 41: He is experiencing little in the way of symptoms. He has sciatica in his back and headaches, for which he is taking solpadeine. His movement is good and he is walking alright. he is looking thinner and needs to sit a lot. The anger is there he wants people to know that the people involved in the cases around his daughter are murdering him and asserts again his desire not to be removed from the Dail, by ambulance. ... read full story / add a comment

Thursday was a busy day for many in the north-west of Mayo. The shock generated by last year’s jailing of five men for attempting to safeguard their families and assert their democracy has since mutated into a steadfast determination to oppose Shell’s undemocratic profit-generating, PR master-plan of a pipeline. But such hard work on the ground deserves a bit of a hoo-ha now and then, and Thursday’s activities provided both. ... read full story / add a comment

I had several long, worried nights with one of my babies. She was having difficulty breathing. No temperature, runny nose, cranky upset crying…nothing I could take her to the A&E with. There was just a subtle change in her that gave me an instinctive and terrifying sense that she was forgetting to breathe. ... read full story / add a comment

June 30th should have marked the end of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC)’s transition government, and seen the start of a hopeful, democratic future. But instead it is a country where millions of people are still suffering at the hands of corrupt leadership and interference by foreign governments. Hundreds of Congolese and Irish people took to the streets of Dublin yesterday to highlight this, and to draw attention to the appalling human rights abuses in the country. ... read full story / add a comment

Just over 150 people marched down to HMS Ocean to protest the presence of this British warship which was involved in the invasion of Iraq in Dublin port. Although some will be disappointed with this turnout in reality it was a significant number for a wet mid week demonstration. Also on the positive side there was a real effort to overcome some of the divisions that have characterised the anti-war movement. ... read full story / add a comment

The Triple Arm of Good Governance: the Judiciary, the Gardai and the offices of Parliament. Included herein: A Question tabled for written reply to Minister Micheal Mc Dowell TD. A response to the written reply by Peter Preston. To be added at Mr Preston's request: "Before each Dail session, the Ceann Comhairle says a prayer that goes something like this, Through your divine inspiration may all our actions, works and words come from thee..... (Mr Preston insists that his hunger strike is nothing to do with the criminal case, but to be answered by the TD who he accuses of returning to him transcripts altered by a named TD within Dail Eireann). ... read full story / add a comment

The British Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State, Lord Triesman, in a speech given to the Royal Commonwealth Society on the 26th of June, has stated that in facing up to the challenges posed by the 21st century, the Commonwealth must learn the lessons of the past, and he added: “In a globalised world the Commonwealth cannot go it alone.” The Minister also said that: “The people and governments of the Commonwealth must help address the big issues facing the world. The Commonwealth does have a comparative advantage in many niche areas, including Diversity, Identity, and Multiculturalism. It must exploit these at all levels.” ... read full story / add a comment

The EPA website today invites you to give them your opinion on how well they do their job. This is newsworthy as it is a rare event for a State agency to put itself into the spotlight in this way. However the call for opinions needs a little more publicity than simply appearing on the EPA website. Indymedia's newswire allows readers to learn about stuff like this from a central point - that is what makes Indymedia so valuable. ... read full story / add a comment
