On Thursday 20th January An Bord Pleanála announced their decision to
approve the Shell high pressure raw gas pipeline.
This is the last chance to resist the plan by the Irish Government,
state bodies and Shell to force their will on communities and on the country
as a whole, regardless of proper process, economic sense, people’s safety,
environmental laws and human rights. Whilst the people of Ireland are being
crippled by the cuts in public services and forced in to huge EU and IMF
debt, the great gas giveaway is the elephant in the room that could be our
solution. The unjust deal can be renegotiated as we have successfully seen
in other countries. The people of Ireland should have a say in how we
sustainably manage our natural resources. The struggle against Shell is a
struggle for everyone in Ireland. You can be part of it. read full story / add a comment

The WARD UNION stag hunt is now banned. Mounted Fox hunting , hare hunting, beagling and the shooting of many of our native birds and wildlife continues to be legal. To enable us to monitor these activities we need more ordinary people living especially in County Meath and County Dublin to photograph hunters on public roads. This is perfectly legal and enables us to know the extent of hunting that is now taking place. We also require information on the whereabouts of any Red deer seen in the fields. read full story / add a comment

You probably can add yards to the list with a bit of thought yourself. read full story / add a comment
