offsite link The Cheap Talk of Emmanuel Macron Thu Mar 06, 2025 12:37 | Noah Carl
Macron claims that Russia is an ?existential threat? to Europe. Yet his actions belie this. France has given Ukraine 12 times less aid than Denmark. And it's still importing billions of euros of Russian energy.

The Danish Defence Intelligence Service predicts an ongoing very high level of threat to the Danish troops in Iraq, according to the government’s proposal to extend Denmark’s military presence

After the end of the next five months’ extension, due to be passed at the end of this month, the Danish Social Democrats and Social Liberals have stated that they will no longer support Denmark’s military presence in Iraq, since the government is not willing to set a deadline for withdrawal of the Danish troops.

Also, prize-winning journalist Bo Elkjær complains again to the Ombudsman about the Prime Minister's and the Minister of Foreign Affairs' refusal to give interviews. read full story / add a comment

dublin / bin tax / household tax / water tax / news report Monday January 16, 2006 16:34 by Bin Tax Campaigner   text 7 comments (last - sunday april 06, 2008 14:37)
Last week DCC claimed that 95% of households have paid the Bin Tax. Today they claimed it was 80%. Here are the accurate figures as provided in a reply to Cllr. Joan Collins (Ind.).

Waiver: 40,000 households
Fully Paid: 35,000 households
Not paid/Arrears: 36,000 households

So over half the households due to pay have not paid the tax in full or have not paid at all. This does not take into account the fact that many households have withdrawn from the service (one quarter nationally) and that rates of non-payment are much higher than average in working class areas of the city.

Last month's Phoenix ran an interesting story indicating that the CIA are / were also using Baldonnel to refuel the aircraft that are used for their "extraordinary renditions". In the most recent January edition, the Phoenix reports that G2 (defence forces intelligence) have been trying to discover the source of this information rather than investigate the flights themselves.

Ms. Justice Macken is due to decide today on costs arising from Eoin Dubsky's failed legal challenge to US military refueling in Ireland. On December 13th she returned the High Court's judgement, denying that a "war" is an "armed conflict", and thus Ireland cannot be said to be "participating in war". Furthermore it is sufficient for the government to make Government policy verbally, never writing down what exactly it is they have decided to do. read full story / add a comment
