BBC News has this weekend added a piece on Hugo Chavez's "revolutionary reading list" to its feature pages. It's a curious article whose timing four months after the launch of the list appears to say little and omit plenty. We are told how there are queues of people in Caracas awaiting a free copy of French 19th century author Victor Hugo's masterpiece "Les Miserables" (in Spanish translation). One happy fellow tells the local BBC chap he's seen the movie and now wants to read the book. I wonder has he ever tried to sing the songs and get on a talent competition? But this curious space filler (all the more curious because in internet news one doesn't have to fill space) prompts me to quickly cast an eye over the efforts of South America to banish illiteracy. read full story / add a comment

The context to this dispute is a company that seeks to consolidate and increase profits through the closure of more than 100 shops, the closures in Dublin fly in the face of these shops making more than £400 million profit during 2008. read full story / add a comment

Ógra Shinn Féin Dublin has condemned the attack on a statue commemorating Irish Patriot Seán Russell. Unknown individuals painted Nazi flags on the base of the monument late on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning and also poured red paint over it. The new bronze memorial to Seán Russell,a veteran of the Easter Rising and IRA chief of staff during the bombing campaign launched in London in 1939, stands in Fairview Park in Dublin and was only recently unveiled by the National Graves Association following the destruction of a previous memorial by vandals in 2004. read full story / add a comment

The abject disregard of the Irish political elite for Ireland's neutrality has been demonstrated by the routine transit of US military planes and troops through Shannon Airport for most of this decade. With the re-run of the Lisbon Treaty referendum we are now being asked to accept EU promises that it will not affect or prejudice Ireland's traditional policy of military neutrality. But the ongoing support of the Irish government for US-led NATO exercises around the world clearly shows that we cannot trust our leaders to uphold Irish neutrality, with or without the non-binding decisions that have been tagged onto the Treaty in an attempt to have it accepted by the people of Ireland. read full story / add a comment

We announce the Launch of a campaign of opposition to the so called "Riveria" apartments close to seaside area in Bray. We intend to maximise the number of objections against any development proposals and build a grassroots movement based on "people power". We are also opposed to further slot machines in the area which may lead to serious addiction problems and can be a source of trouble within families. We will strongly oppose any plans for development in the one scenic area of Bray left. Instead our campaign believes investment should be concentrated in the town centre. Some of our other aims include campaigning for the re-instatement of the Blue Flag for our Beach which we had in 1991. We also demand greater transparency and accountability in the planning process. read full story / add a comment
