The Active Retirement Ireland (ARI) agm yesterday in Dublin Castle saw hundreds of angry older people letting a FF Minister know what they think of the private sectors control of the nursing home sector. Is it not time that opposition political parties started to make this a serious issue? According to the ARI the state is obliged by law to provide public nursing home places, however that is not the reality on the ground. When you are old and need to go to a nursing home, an expensive private bed is your only option. The ARI organsiation seems to be the only one making this argument?

Here's a story about a Irish couple detained for a week on the back of a disgruntled employers claims In January 2002, Murray and Gould asked Northrop Grumman if they could change jobs because the school owner did not pay them and demanded they clean his home. After they complained, the school owner called Northrop Grumman and said the pair had never worked for him and Murray was getting his pilot's license so he could open a business in Yemen, the appeals court said. They were deemed to no longer have legal residency status under the work program. The school owner also claimed that the couple opposed U.S. policy and believed that as long as the United States supports Israel terrorism will only worsen, the court said. Northrop Grumman notified the Department of State and U.S. immigration authorities of the claims. Days later, the government took the couple into custody and began deportation proceedings. http://www.newsday.com/news/local/wire/newyork/ny-bc-ny...wyork read full story / add a comment

It has been brought to the attention of the Galway Alliance Against War that the local Fianna Fail cumann is due to hold its Easter Commemoration after 12 o’clock mass at Liam Mellowes statue. Our commemoration - the main speaker at which will be the brother of a Guantanamo internee - begins at 12.30pm at the same statue. This means the two commemorations will probably coincide. read full story / add a comment

Such is the logic of Blairs Britain: an anti war protester went to the Cenotaph and read out the names of British soldiers killed in Iraq. For this he was arrested, charged with holding an illegal demonstration and now has been convicted and fined.

Internal fighting within the Labour Party in the Sligo-North Leitrim constituency has deepened with the decision of the all the members (23) of the North Leitrim branch not to renew their membership of the party.

Also Bree and several of his supporters did not attend Labour’s annual conference last weekend. read full story / add a comment
