Mustafa Barghouti MP writes about the pressure that once again is being imposed on the palestinian people to enter into so called Peace Talks. Dr Barghouti believes that such talks without a clear agenda, timetable or without a binding mechanism for implementation will result in a betrayal of the Palestinian People. Full article at link. We have followed with great concern the increasing external pressure, especially from the U.S. and Israel, on the PLO leadership to shift from indirect negotiations (which have not resulted in any progress) to direct negotiations without clear and binding terms of reference regarding a complete halt of all settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territory - including in Jerusalem. read full story / add a comment

The Alliance for Animal Rights is horrified to hear that a well known RTE presenter Ella Mc Sweeney has had two ‘pet’ pigs she raised in her garden butchered for food. This person apparently an animal ‘welfarest ‘’ has been known for her stance against animal cruelty in the meat trade. The pigs were kept by her at her Blackrock home for several months before they were butchered.She is pictured in a newspaper with her arms around the two innocent and gentle animals. Yet again we stress the difference in using animals for to feed our taste buds as welfarests do, as opposed to respecting the rights of other non human sentient beings to share our planet. We have urged our supporters to stress their disappointment at her actions. read full story / add a comment
