The purpose of the Lisbon Treaty research is to offer the voters of Ireland objective arguments on the Lisbon Treaty, with facts and evidence with substance, and an objective discussion of the legal, political, economical and social considerations of the Treaty.

So far it has been only the No groups who presented quotes of the Lisbon Treaty, and only their arguments stand valid on the basis of the text itself and on the grounds of scientific facts.

This year the Iranian government's repression of workers has started before the 1st of May with the arrest of a number of labour activists in the last week of April . Two of the leading members of the newly found 'Free union of Iranian workers' ( who despite its unfortunate choice of name has declared its intentions to work within the confines of the current regime and avoid 'political' opposition to the regime) were arrested ahead of plans for a May Day demonstration in Kurdistan. The government followed the arrests by banning unofficial May Day celebrations in various parks in Tehran. read full story / add a comment

Paradoxically the music of Beethoven seemed more youthful in last night's concert than the music of Górecki - a contemporary composer born in 1933. However the program which presented an interesting contrasted juxtaposition was a triumph for conductor, orchestra and soloist who, all, appeared to me to be young and energetic with admirable team spirit and exemplary seriousness of purpose. read full story / add a comment

"Above all, perhaps, the story [of the Irish Hospital's Sweepstake] underlines what journalism must continue to combat: censorship, state secrecy and the unwarranted power of an influential few." [Stephen Dodd writing in 2003 in the Sunday Independent, one of only a handful of mainstream articles on the issue] [1]

Journalist Joe MacAnthony details his experiences of working within the Irish mainstream media. From the early heady days in his time with the Irish Times, where 'scandal thrived in house', to the wage cuts and ostracism following his exposure of Ray Burke's dealings. read full story / add a comment
