There are five “official” nuclear-weapon states in this world - the US, the UK, Russia, France and China - that are permitted to possess nuclear weapons under the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (the NPT) [1]. The US is currently proposing that India be granted the privileges of these “official” nuclear-weapon states, even though it has refused to sign the NPT and has developed nuclear weapons. In effect, the US is proposing that India be recognised as the 6th nuclear-weapon state in this world, while remaining outside the NPT. Ireland is in a position to stop this happening. read full story / add a comment

Despite, predictions to the contrary, elections in the wee north continue to be pretty much a sectarian headcount. The predictions of an SDLP revival, on one side, and a grassroots republican revolt, on the other, both turned out to be wishful thinking as Sinn Fein and the DUP continued their growth among the respective sides of the sectarian divide. The prediction of an increased turnout (which was repeated right until the end of counting) also turned out to be a figment. read full story / add a comment

"Oh it's international Women's Day and so many issues have been co-opted and the 'F' word is become a dirty word for some people, what shall we do?" We decided that the source of a lot of our bad legislation which mitigates against women and children, especially the Criminal Law (sexual Offences) Bill 2006, emanted from the Offices of the Tanaiste and Minister for Justice, Michael Mc Dowell. We decided, therefore to 'unmanage' him. read full story / add a comment
