What does Phoenix think it’s doing? ‘Goldhawk’ et al probably do believe they are mounting some kind of challenge to the pantomime that passes for Irish politics. Take a look at a typical issue. For instance, the latest one. The biggest clue about who our intrepid crew of fearless reporters believe their readers are, lies in the advertising.

This summer flooding really came to Europe. Almost 50 died, a very small figure which reflected community awareness and good municipal responses. But all scientific evidence now suggests that these incidents are best to be considered as part of a new pattern related to global climate change.
We are not dealing with the causes in the short-term. We are thus dealing with effects which are long term. Proverbially the time to put that first stitch has passed now.-

We now face forest fires and flooding of the largest river valleys in summer and extreme storms with tornados in spring and summer. read full story / add a comment

Hopefully, it will send a salutary message to other unethical direct marketeers. read full story / add a comment

The report finds that the legal agreements governing the project place a ‘price tag’ on human rights by creating financial disincentives for the governments of Chad and Cameroon to protect human rights. The agreements may require the two countries to pay large financial penalties if they interrupt the operation of the pipeline or oil-fields – even when making an intervention to protect rights and enforce laws that apply elsewhere in their countries. This makes it extremely difficult for Chad and Cameroon to take action against company malpractice, and for individuals adversely affected by the pipeline to obtain redress. read full story / add a comment
