Once again due to the treachery of a few in the labour party and a turn coat in the blue shirts, the motion to impose a higher double-tax on the people of this city was carried last Thursday in the council meeting. That means that this year people are facing a charge of €156 for the collection of their bins. So it’s imperative that we are prepared for the third year of this battle. Tonight there is a meeting for Dublin City activists in the Teachers Club Parnell Square at 7.30. It’s important that people attend this meeting from as many areas as possible so that we can prepare ourselves for the a busy year ahead fighting this unjust double tax. Yours Sincerely, Dermot ... read full story / add a comment

Anti -Irish Trimble is to step into the controversy surrounding the proposed plans for a mosque in Portadown. He fears Sinn Fein are exploiting the issue and that Unionist attitudes could cause them bad publicity. The fact is Unionists are more inclined towards racism than nationalists and cannot envision a N.Ireland that isn't white, protestant and Unionist. N.Ireland has always been an anti-catholic and anti-Irish state.Muslims are now the next victims of their intolerance and bigotry. ... read full story / add a comment
