There is not one word on his literature about his position on abortion, civil partnership, his opposition to gay rights in general, his opposition to sex education. Not one word about religious values. No reference to his support for the Iona Institute and the right wing economic policies of its director David Quinn (overspending on public services was the problem) His Brief CV makes no mention of his period as sec to archbishop Connell. He is only for adult stem cell research etc You would think he was a soft-hearted liberal! When will he come out as a catholic extremist? read full story / add a comment

I'm posting here, a very interesting article by Michael Albert of Z Space/Z Mag in which he looks at the idea of differences of opinion on the left and teases out the issues of should we aim to be "right" (as in correct) - which we should, but also if we have a difference of opinion with others or other groups on the left, should we have a "split" or disregard their past opinions also? And then, if it turns out the that other person/group on the left was correct in their analysis and action(s), should we be bitter that we weren't or should we be thankful that those who were right won out? I'm posting the article in full, with a link to the article on Albert's blog. read full story / add a comment

The people of Ireland should consider a Boycott in relation the upcoming Census in April 2011.
The reason I say this is that the company contracted to carry out the Census is CACI UK who
are a subsidiary of CACI international which through its various outsourcing has been accused
of contributing to the torture of prisoners in Abu Ghraib in Iraq, something I myself am not happy
about, and it will be one of the reason's why I will not be completing the Census form this time. read full story / add a comment
