national / miscellaneous / news report Saturday May 31, 2003 17:55 by Paul Kinsella
Just had it confirmed from a very reliable source that Tony Woodley - the Left Wing candidate for the position of General Secretary of the Transport and General Workers Union - TGWU - Incorporating the Amalgamated Transport and General Workers Union - ATGWU in Ireland has won the vote for TGWU General Secretary. This is great news and hopefully the TGWU will return to being a radical militant campaigning Trade Union fighting for it's members, and should also boost Mick O'Reilly and Eugene McClone's campaign to be fully reinstated to their previous positions within the ATGWU. read full story / add a comment

Switched on my radio this afternoon and started scanning (In vain as it has been up to now for the last 2 weeks) to see if any of the pirates who were forced off the air by the BCI/Garda raids nearly 2 weeks had returned to our airwaves, or if anyone had decided to start broadcasting in defiance of the BCI and the corporate radio establishment, and guess my great surprise and delight when I turned to 94.4FM and heard one of Dublin's dance music stations - KISS 94.4FM back on air, admitedly on reduced power. read full story / add a comment

Cork City Council used the Criminal Justice -Public Order- Act, to evict a family they had just agreed to accommodate. For refusing to get out of her caravan, i.e. her own home, a Traveller mother will now face a prosecution!!! The silly thing is, there was not even a need to evict this family from the roadside because they were due to move into a rented house today. The City Council knew that, because they will be the landlord, but still they ordered this eviction. Strange people. read full story / add a comment
