Why did it take a Socialist Party county councillor borrowing a hard hat and sneaking onto a site to uncover the Gama scandal? What were union officials like SIPTU's construction branch secretary, Eric Fleming, doing for the last three years? Why is the Dublin executive of SIPTU not allowed to see the results of the union's own investigation? read full story / add a comment

Más Ó nó Mac thú, in ainm Naomh Phádraig tabhair cabhair do Teamhar.

Tara was Ireland's capital. Fenians died there in 1798. Early Sinn Féin members including Artur Griffith saved it 100 years ago from the digging of the British Israelites. The coronations stone of sorts, the stone of Destiney Liafáil is there to this day.

What is Sinn Féin about if it isn't about protecting Ireland's most historic site, the hill and valley of Tara? It's about time the party repeated what its members did 100 years ago.

The Daily Ireland has already criticised Sinn Féin members for not doing more. Now is the the time to stop the history of Ireland's most important valley being dug up by 22 ton Excavators. Contact 44 to let them know that you support Saving the Tara Valley. read full story / add a comment
international / anti-capitalism / news report Friday July 22, 2005 06:31 by Wayne
In the small rural town of Maleny , Queensland, Aus, where the Platypus swim, and Co-operative enterprise is at the second highest on the planet, the largest shareholder of the retail market, Woolworths, bulldozes it`s way into a community that opposes the development by 79%.
The developer with the aid of 160 police, began to excavate a site on a bend in Obi Obi creek, containing high populations of platypus.
Some are calling for a Boycott on Woolworths, or any of their companies due to this, and the undermining of fruit and vegetable growers by stocking imported goods instead.
This is a fine example of how Big Business gets a hand from the state. read full story / add a comment

The so-called investigation into the death of Donegal man Richie Barron has turned out to be a cesspool of all that is rotten and corrupt about our police force; harassment, intimidation and attempts to frame the McBrearty family. Their punishment -a transfer to Dublin! read full story / add a comment
