Cabra residents are determined that Dublin City Council won't beat them on the Bin Tax after battling for over 5 years. The Cabra/Dunard/Navan Road Campaign against the Bin Tax have organised residents on any roads affected by non-collection to dump their own waste into the bin trucks. People are sick of the ever increasing stealth taxes being imposed on them and have chosen the double tax of the bin charges as an issue to take a stand. read full story / add a comment

A portent of all that was to follow on the discovery of gas off the Mayo coast must surely have been that all of the local SIPTU and other workers who had been involved in the exploration were immediately dropped. Foreign workers from the Phillippines and elsewhere were flown in and out from that point onwards - without ever touching Irish soil. Clearly, there was a determination to keep matters out of Irish hands from before the find - itself only a confirmation of what had long been known/suspected about our resrouces off the west coast (despite propaganda to the contrary that had been circulating in the years preceding the find). read full story / add a comment

Cuba, Eritrea, Myanmar (formerly Burma), Iran, Nepal, Zimbabwe, and China. What do these countries have in common? They are all far apart, but they all share the same warped ideological front towards press freedoms. They are all in the process of denying press freedom, through the imprisonment of journalists, and by their actions, they are undermining the very fabric of society and basic democratic rights. read full story / add a comment
