Row Over Cash for Ex-Prisoners' Group An Ulster Unionist Assembly member last night branded a massive EU cash windfall for a Strabane ex-INLA prisoners' group as 'outrageous.' Teach na Failte, a project for former Republican Socialist prisoners, announced last week that it had obtained almost half a million pounds in peace funding packages. (Whats the betting that the SP also oppose this funding? They probably wanted it spent on new instruments for 'Kick The Pope' Orange Bands.) read full story / add a comment

What's the story with Buy Nothing Day? Been real busy but would love to know that there's something good planned so if someone would email me please and let me know I'd appreciate it. We're putting posters up around UCD but it's on a saturday and all, no-one will be here so no on-campus action. I'd be interested in doing another food not bombs, if anyone wants to help out giz a shout. read full story / add a comment |
