The appointment of Mr Gay Byrne as Chairman of the Road Safety Authority must be a welcomed appointment if only to see in time a respected public figure walk away from a charade that appears to have more emphasis placed on securing revenue rather than saving lives. We all know Gaybo will give it his very best, once what he is doing or saying finds a pleasurable interest and approval by those in the corridors of power. Some like him,some hate him but one thing is sure, if Gay walks away then we can safely assume that there is something rotten and wrong with the institution and the bodies surrounding it that alligiedly place the interest of every citizen of the state as aa priority above all else. read full story / add a comment

Interesting call for left unity here in Daily Ireland. This time it is from a republican source. Follows on from a series previous calls from other sources on the left. Time for lovely rainbow coalition of the left GEARÓID Ó CAIREALLÁIN "But what about a rainbow coalition of the left? Just say Sinn Féin, Labour, the Green Party and the various socialists and independents like Jim Higgins (sic) and Tony Gregory got together to form a real alternative." read full story / add a comment

It is the overwhelming masses of China that will assert their primacy against minority government and then spill across borders into surrounding regions. Existing maps of Asia and Europe will become redundant overnight. People across the globe will be spurred into action as they drag their corrupt leaders from their lairs to face the quick judgement of the people. The bunkers deep in mountains, designed to harbour criminal elites in times of devastation, have only a finite supply of resources before the inhabitants must emerge to face the final judgement of the people; justice is patient. read full story / add a comment
