Those jolly jokers of UCC Law Society have come up with a cunning wheeze to gain publicity (publicity is a must when you go looking for cash from sponsors).
"Let's invite one of those racist chappies!"
"Oh, rather! We'll get to go in all the papers, quoting Voltaire like nobody's business, and playing the heroic martyrs when those AFA oiks turn up and get the event cancelled!"
"Hurrah! Pimms all round!" read full story / add a comment

If principles of good government are followed, many positive things -- such as good nutrition in our schools -- will follow. read full story / add a comment

didn't qualify as a free open democratic accountable election like the ones you get for school class rep. Neither candidate has been photographed in an orange scarf or jumper. There is also a third candidate the ultra-nationalist Vadim Tudor. Mr Tudor thinks Rumania's past when it was a fascist dictatorship and fought on the eastern front is not properly remembered. He was in favour. Both Mr Nastase and Mr Basescu think Rumania's past when it was a Soviet satelite with friendly eat-your-young dicator Ceacescu has not been fully changed. read full story / add a comment

Extract: Meanwhile, in Lagos, Kingsley Igbojionu is living in a hostel with his wife and two children. Unable, he says, to return to the countryside where he came from for fear of persecution, he has made several trips to the Irish embassy in Abuja to request help for his sick children, without success. Although he has solicitors working free of charge in an attempt to have his family readmitted to Ireland, he is not hopeful. 'We have no money, the children are malnourished and have been in hospital twice. At this point, if they allow us, we will send them back to Ireland alone, so that they may be put up for adoption. That's the decision my wife and I have made as we believe it's the best thing for the children.' read full story / add a comment
