"To subvert the tyranny of our execrable government, to break the connection with England, the never-failing source of all our political evils and to assert the independence of my country- these were my objectives. To unite the whole people of Ireland, to abolish the memory of all past dissensions, and to substitute the common name of Irishman in place of the denominations of Protestant, Catholic and Dissenter - these were my means." -Theobald Wolfe Tone . read full story / add a comment

"Your tenure has also seen the collapse of the community and the breaking of extended family links wrought by the runaway property boom. But sure we are all making a few quid out of it, so we don’t see our family as much as we like and we are all disconnected from our communities to the extent that some of us don’t know who lives next door to us" read full story / add a comment

Director Ken Loach spoke to Tom Behan about his award winning new film The Wind That Shakes The Barley, which is about Ireland’s fight for freedom Even though Ken Loach’s new film The Wind That Shakes The Barley hasn’t yet opened in cinemas, it has already won a high profile award and created controversy. Ken Loach is on a high after winning the Palme d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival. Some elements of the British media have insinuated it was just a fluke, or that he won as a kind of “lifetime achievement award”. from latest issue of Socialist Worker www.socialistworker.org.uk Link to original read full story / add a comment

http://www.gmfreeireland.org/conference/ With Vandana Shiva, Percy Schmeiser, Deborah Koons Garcia, Benedikt Haerlin and other speakers. Ireland's world famous clean green image provides a competitive advantage for our farming, food and tourism industries. We may quickly lose this through pollution and genetically modified (GM) animal feed, seeds and crops. The Green Ireland conference provides a historic opportunity for politicians, stakeholders and key international experts to explore our democratic participation, legal rights and responsibilities for the future of food and farming and our brand recognition in a globalising world. read full story / add a comment

They say that She would never be forgotten, that young fifteen year old girl who died at the foot of a Marian Grotto in Granard, twenty six years ago. Ann Lovett was found dead beside the body of her new-born child twenty six years ago. She was fifteen. I keep thinking that if the Statue she had chosen to meet her death beside had been painted, or friendly, or had a rounded stomach, a vestige of humanity then maybe that little girl would not have died. She went to the lonliest place she could find, not for aid, but because she knew that no-one went there and she knew she would be safe from prying eyes and intrusion. The case haunted me at the time because we were of an age. read full story / add a comment

Is this the final comeuppance for the British establishment for their conquest of Ireland? An Irishman, who is also a psychopathic serial killer, has sown seeds in the 1970s which are now about to come to fruition. This scandal is going to rock the organs of government of the English state to their very foundations. read full story / add a comment
