In Austria, European Parliament President Josep Borrell and the Commission President José Manuel Barroso will be presiding over a forum to discuss the European Union in the world, globalisation and the EU social model, liberty security and justice, and the future funding of the EU. Representatives of 29 national parliaments and the European Parliament will also be meeting today and tomorrow to debate questions of concern about the future of the EU as part of the reflection period on the future of Europe. read full story / add a comment

mayo / rights, freedoms and repression / other press Sunday May 07, 2006 22:31 by Shell to Sea
1 comment (last - tuesday may 09, 2006 13:23)
It's seems that this week Shell and the Department of Marine have been making lots of contradictory statements, almost as if they were trying to give different impressions to different audiences. Andy Pyle's expression of "regret" over the imprisonment of the Rossport Five, while his lawyers are seeking a permanent injunction which he knows will almost certainly result in the five men being returned to prison, is the best example, but there have been plenty more. I guess we'll have to discount what they say, and watch what they do. read full story / add a comment

An American F-14 tomcat tail fin was discovered washed up on an Irish Beach on friday this week. The fin was in very good condition which suggests it has only been in the water for a few weeks or months. The U.S. navy denies losing any planes in the region or any tail fins, so this begs the question, where did it come from? What are the U.S. military covering up? read full story / add a comment

When an article about journalism begins with the sentence "Journalists are not the most important people in the world" you can be reasonably sure what follows will be equally worthless. On World Press Freedom Day the Irish Times took time out from it's job as the giant cog in the mechanism for successful democracy for a bit of self examination. However, what at the outset appeared interesting reading rapidly deteriorated into a random concoction of jargon. 'Citizen' journos? read full story / add a comment
