Management at Green Isle still refuse to engage with TEEU, LRC, NIB, or Labour Court. This despite the fact that they have accepted Irish State Aid to the tune of €43,000,000. Green Isle's capacity to suck money out of the Irish exchequer is matched by their contempt for workers and the Trade Union movement. read full story / add a comment

Never before have we issued such an urgent call for nationwide unity to stop cruelty to animals in this country.

For many people reading today the issue breaks your heart, but on December 6th we have one last opportunity to send a huge message to decision makers at government level that the new and revised animal welfare bill due to be released in 2010 must contain such strong measures to protect animals and penalize those that seek to profit and get kicks out of animal abuse. read full story / add a comment

Whereas those whose images appeared without prior consent in this week's British media may have recourse to legal action and a bit of chatter, Irish political activists, protesters & ordinary citizens thus far enjoy no public recognition of the existence of such databases in Ireland nor it would appear have any mechanism to ensure that their details if not guilty of any criminal offence are removed from the intelligence files of the Garda Siochana. read full story / add a comment |
