European politics are no doubt scintilating for the average Irish citizen now Lisbon2 is behind us & our continuing place at the heart of Europe is assured. We expect the Dáil expense scandal which hints at as much outragous sociopathic graft & cheek as our rivals in the British parliament will keep us in the top rankings. We can read about Berlusconi unknowingly frolicking with prostitutes and cocaine traffickers and think it slightly pathetic that he imagined his pretty guests were up & gaggin for it. Now new scandal at the heart of Europe which alas, is in the process of being hijacked by the far right! Sarkozy's minister of Culture, Frédéric Mitterrand, who though son of the socialist president chose a rightwing career path, is at the heart of the EU. In the lead-up to a new set of agreements between France and Thailand to stem sex tourism, passages from the minister's 2005 biography describing the thrill of sex with young Thai boys are raising interest of both prurient and legitimate nature. read full story / add a comment ![]()

A controvercial exhibition starting tomorrow alerted the public to call AFAR when a photo of a live Greyhound wired up to act as a 'live medical device' was publicised. people feared the dog was to be confined to a plinth to display this possible future scenario at Dublins science Gallery for the next two months. We contacted the organisers and have been assured that no live dog will be used. It was just for the photoshot. However we urge people to express their strong opposition to the use of animals as medical devices or for experimentation. The expo facilitates and provides for comments to be displayed during this event. A letter from the organisers follows.We in AFAR are glad that they are not using a dog in this instance. read full story / add a comment ![]()

The most mendacious and shameful of any of the Cinn Comhairlí to supposedly serve the Irish state is about to pass into history celebrated by Brian Cowen as someone who served Ireland well. Today's Irish Independent reveals that whilst celebrating Robbie Burns night in Scotland last January, John O'Donoghue claimed 1 sterling pound in expenses for a donation he had made through the goodness of his heart to UNICEF. As we most probably remember the average exchange rate for one sterling pound to one euro in January 2009 was a whopping 1.0768.You could probably have rounded those three farthings to a penny and lodged them in an AIB account with nobody asking questions. read full story / add a comment |
