People Before Profit Alliance Councillors Joan Collins and Brid Smith Statement on election of Lord Mayor by Dublin City Councillors People Before Profit to provide real opposition on Dublin City Council Once again people in Dublin have voted for change on their City Council. In 2004 Labour was voted in as the largest group, ending Fianna Fail’s domination of the council. Instead of change, the people were treated to a game of musical chairs, with Labour entering a deal to divvy up the Mayorship and committee chairs with Fine Gael, and the sole Green and PD Councillors. When that deal broke down, Labour concluded an arrangement with Fianna Fail. The merry go round now continues with Labour in a deal for the new council with Fine Gael. read full story / add a comment

Labour Councillor Jim Mc Garry has been elected as Mayor of Sligo at the Council AGM this afternoon. The voting alliance between Fine Gael, Fianna Fail and Labour which elected Cllr Mc Garry was harsly criticised at this afternoon’s meeting of Sligo Borough Council. After all the speculation, there will be no left-wing alliance on the Council, despite the fact that seven of the 12 councillors elected onto the new council are from left-wing parties. read full story / add a comment

Mr B has flown off to meet Obama, the first time they share space since the queen of Engurland ticked Berlusconi off at the G20 gig in April. Their one hour meeting will be had through interpreters since neither speaks the same language or lingo. But before he boarded the plane quipping &/or gaffing yesterday that he was going to Washington "handsome and tanned", he did open a new can of worms so interesting that it merited pick-up in today's Irish Independent and prompted a thoughtful analysis from the Italian "Repubblica" journalist Ezio Mauro, a complete of translation of which to English is reproduced below. It seems despite winning the EU election Mr B really is realising he's on the way out. & now rather than it all being a "leftwing" plot, a "rightwing" name has entered the picture. read full story / add a comment
