I was born and raised in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. The city evolved out of the brutal British penal colony of Moreton Bay. It was built on aboriginal genocide and Irish and other convict slavery. The original tribe that occupied the area had been totally liquidated before I got there!

The program at The National Concert Hall last night gave the audience an unusual experience of a great range of sounds - some of them up to ear-drum-shattering volumes. This music presented was in various styles - some of which were contrasting and some of which were complimentary. On the whole, the concert was exciting and more interesting than I thought it would be a few weeks ago when I booked two tickets on the internet. read full story / add a comment

The decision of the government to guarantee the liabilities, the debt and deposits, of the Irish banks has been described by the Labour Party leader Eamon Gilmore as the ‘biggest blank cheque in history’. The guarantee amounts to around €400bn and will be nearer €500bn if non-Irish owned banks such as the Ulster Bank are included.

Beyond the nature of the decision and its suddenness, the sheer scale of this guarantee has been staggering. The US bail-out plan which was initially rejected by Congress was claimed to cost $700bn. In other words the Irish guarantee could grow almost to the size of the US bail out while the US economy is almost seventy times larger! read full story / add a comment
