Following on from a protest in Newry a fortnight ago, a large protest was held in Derry City on Saturday, 16th December.

Approximately 100 protestors turned out for the event on Shipquay Street, as did no less than twenty armed members of the British Colonial Police. read full story / add a comment

In June 2006 the Director of Public Prosecutions revised his general guidelines. One section of the revised guidelines caused bemusement amongst some in the legal profession. Section 9 in particular which refers to the guidelines on disclosure is the one which has created a point of debate and criticism. Ironically the DPP singled out the McKevitt case as a shining example of fair procedures on disclosure when in fact the opposite happened in the McKevitt trial. Both nationally and internationally legal observers have described the disclosure process used during the McKevitt case as one of the most blatant abuses on disclosure that they have ever witnessed. read full story / add a comment

Given as Shell’s site in Ballinaboy contains 400 acres, ten times more than the size of the refinery they are building at the moment, Shell to Sea activists have long suspected it is to be the first of many. A report published by the Petroleum Affairs Division of the Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources, earlier this year envisages the construction of more refineries and more pipelines in Erris, in addition to the Corrib gas development, involving companies other than just Shell, and with state encouragement. A backgrounder on oil and gas in the west of Ireland can be read here: https://publish.indymedia.org.uk/en/2006/10/352997.html read full story / add a comment

tyrone / rights, freedoms and repression / event notice Wednesday December 13, 2006 17:03 by West Tyrone
Traditionally for republicans the month of December has been ‘Prisoners Month’. This year will be no different. 12 IRA POWs are still being held in various jails throughout Ireland. This is totally unacceptable given the historic decision by the army to call an end to the armed campaign in July 2005. It is equally unacceptable that this is happening 8 years after the signing of the Good Friday agreement, which should have secured their release, and over 10 years from the initiation of a peace process this is totally unacceptable. read full story / add a comment
