The news that 26-County Finance Minister Brian Lenihan has ordered the Financial Regulator to carry out a review of the Credit Union sector should be a cause for concern.

national / rights, freedoms and repression / other press Friday October 23, 2009 15:44 by Peter Sutherland's Nemesis
The vote at the European Parliament was on a "motion condemning interference in the media and calling for legislation banning media monopolies in EU countries was defeated" thanks to Fianna Fail and Fine Gael. The majority of the sycophantic media in Ireland will no doubt ignore this story - and fair play and thank you to The Irish Examiner for printing it. So ... there's no fear for Tony & Gavin O'Reilly's "Independent News and Media" or for Denis O'Brien's "Comunicorp" semi--and-growing-monopolies of Irish newspaper and radio respectively, when we see the cringing support given from Ireland's FF and FG Members of the European Parliament to Italian Prime Minister Berlusconi. Gobshite right winger Thatcherite embarrassements that they are. read full story / add a comment

Universities have been the scene of daily protests and ordinary people have used every opportunity, even football matches, to express their opposition to the regime.
