Did a little bit of research on the pirate radio shutdown today, calling Comreg, the Gardai etc. Here's what I found out: 11 locations were raided by Comreg and the Gardai on Tuesday and Wednesday (20th and 21st May) across Dublin. Equipment was seized in 9 of these locations. They (Comreg) wouldn’t give an estimate of the value of the equipment seized and didn’t know the number of Gardai involved. They also wouldn’t say if there was any ministerial involvement so I wasn’t able to find out if McDowell was involved in it at all. They said they worked in co-operation with the National Bureau of Criminal Investigation although a spokesman for the NBCI denied that they had any involvement in the raids or any investigation. The Garda press office also denied any knowledge of the operation. The spokesperson for ComReg said that prosecutions were pending although wouldn’t say whether these read full story / add a comment

As the residents of Dominick street we demand that Dublin city council listen to our concerns. So far they have not!Over 11 children have been knocked down this year by cars or trucks. Our children have nowhere to play, they are forever injurying themselves, the play areas are a disgrace! We demand that the council make the road pedestrianised or at least install speed bumps on the street immediately as the whole street is a residential with a very high number of young children who have no public space to play in other than their street. The residents of Dominick Street are holding their own Reclaim the Street Protest on Sat May 24, all day, from 9am on Dominick Street. We ask the public to support us & make their way down to Dominick street on saturday to send a clear message to the city council! read full story / add a comment
