The Minister for Social & Family Affairs, Mary Coughlin recently announced plans to introduce a two-year “habitual residence” test to restrict access to social welfare in Ireland. This followed a similar move in the UK with whom we share a “common travel area”. In both cases the restrictions were announced as being part of preparations for EU “enlargement” on May 1st. After the restrictions were announced Minister Coughlin was questioned about the legitimacy of the rules under EU law. To comply with EU law, the Minister was careful to introduce restrictions that targeted the “inactive” and which also included Irish people as well as EU and non-EU people. On Tuesday 23rd a judgement in relation to “habitual residence” was reached in the European Court of Justice. An Irish-American who was refused a jobseeker’s allowance in the UK lost his case against the British Government. ... read full story / add a comment

Noam Chomsky has publicly given his backing to John Kerry for the US presidency. Chomsky, of course, prefers Nadar, but in an interview in the Guardian seems to advocate a vote for Kerry, presumbably because Nadar is not going to win and each vote for him is one less for Kerry, thus opening the way for a Bush victory. ... read full story / add a comment

might lead to massive violence on the streets of Palestine Ariel Sharon chose today to public assassinate him in Gaza without so much as a trial. The question is why? And why was it sanctioned by Bush as it undoubtedly must have been? They could have picked up this man any time they wanted on the streets as there was little chance of him getting away on his wheelchair. Surely this barbaric execution is proof if it were required that Israel has no interest in peace and is again thumbing its' nose at the world. His assassination will reawaken memories for Irish people of the execution of James Connolly in a wheelchair and the war which led to independence from British tyranny that it sparked! "Sharon has opened the gates of hell. and nothing will stop us from cutting off his head." ... read full story / add a comment |
