Eleven Questions asked in the Dail this afternoon. Minister Dempsey was present. Did not respond to a reasonable call for the project to be suspended until all related issues are thrashed out and did not offer to intervene. Does he realise that the law can only work on the State mess that is presented? ... read full story / add a comment

Marking The Democratic Republic of Congo's independence day, over a hundred of Galway's Congolese and African community, along with a sprinkling of Galway activists, took to the streets today to protest against the wanton slaughter of 10 million DRC civilians this past decade, the refusal of the DRC's transitional government to hold elections and at the fact that life expectancy in their country remains at early to mid-forties. This love bomb of a protest, the singing, dancing, drumming, the pristine joie de vivre made us token "sprinklers" sheepish (all of us seasoned protest marchers), made us feel that we are only saturnine tyros when it comes to protesting - with such positive energy, perhaps, Ireland's Congolese/African community could do us all a favour by levitating the Pentagon 99 miles high before dumping it with maximum contempt into the Mindinao Trench?. ... read full story / add a comment

Outraged by yesterday's obscene jailing of the Rossport Five, Galway activists, their number greatly augmented by the Congolese and African community, picketed the dockland oil depot/offices of Shell Oil today. The fiery Padraig Cambell inspired us with his no bollocks address, winkled out a hard hat Shell honcho from his, well, shell, to deliver a note of protest and, to boot, led a contingent of activists to the nearby Constituency Clinic of Eamon O' Cuiv to remind him of his duty towards his Gaeltacht brothers and sisters. This coming Monday, at 10.30 AM, activists are urged to protest outside the Constituency Clinic (beside the Royal Rock Cafe, Ballybane Industrial Estate) of state minister, Frank Fahey. ... read full story / add a comment
