The AOHS have contacted (Laura Keys) at the Kilkenny People newspaper who have confirmed that online opinion polls are open to mass voting by lobby groups. We alerted our supporters to the vote online but realise that as this poll is running for a week till Tuesday it means nothing in terms of real analysis. The votes in favour of ‘foxhunting being discontinued’ have fluctuated from over 80% in favour to just below 50% at other times. Its like a game show, excuse the pun, and the site itself easily allows repeat voting, it is readily open to abuse which makes it all irrelevant. The newspaper have now confirmed they are well aware of the mass-voting aspect. “For this reason I think it's pointless to participate in these "polls". They are totally unscientific, are easily rigged, and only really exist to drive traffic to the sites to boost their advertising revenue. read full story / add a comment

It was well known in political and media circles that drastic cuts in corporation would not be sustainable when the economy went into decline, however the 'spin' put out at the time was that these cuts in taxes paid by business would create greater profits and that this would mean almost full employment. Now that we know both the spin and the theory are nonsense what are the opposition parties saying? read full story / add a comment
