Faoi dheireadh tá Gaeilge ina teanga oifigiúil den Aontas Eorpach, ach is scannal é nár tharla seo 30 bliain ó shin nuair a chuaigh muid isteach san AE ar dtús. Measaim gur seo seans deireanach don Ghaeilge teacht slán. Is trua é seo mar tríd is tríd táim i gcoinne an Aontais Eorpach. I mo thuairim, tá an eagraíocht ann go príomha chun an bóthar a réiteach do ghnóthaí móra. ... read full story / add a comment

I know that while the Northern Ireland assembly was running the local parties didn't seem to have a problem introducing water charges. However it would be foolish to let them off the hook at this time. ... read full story / add a comment

http://www.justice.ie has details of a new 'Counter Gangland Crime Law' published 'draft legislation' which means he thinks he's coming back, or the guillotine will be used. The Guillotine is a handy little device which the FF/PD administration has been using for many years, in which full debate is disallowed ,to shove everything through in time for 'snap' elections- of which there are few, or recesses (of which there are many). ... read full story / add a comment

It has been long observed that people for some reason on their non-banking days readily absorb shite about Dangerous Places, Famous People, Sensible Saving Options, Holidays, Interesting facts, Sport results, Media, gardening and health as well looking ahead at “democratic evolution” or looking back at "how history was made". We will assume dear & attentive reader that you are one of those who has passed directly from Saturday to almost Tuesday with the sort of crumpled Sunday Papers a person uses to mop up spilt things like milk. Maybe you didn’t absorb your interesting facts & didn’t want to absorb more Dangerous places. We all have a limit of absorption, like that point where credulity ends & credibility is lost. This edition I will consider the mystical progress from Tolstoy's "War & Peace" and his accompanying anarchist beliefs to the composer Scriabin & his experimental music & then his nephew a.k.a. Comrade Molotov, Soviet negotiator with Hitler & daddy of the "petrol bomb". ... read full story / add a comment

History was made today as the GAA opened its doors and welcomed in a modern Ireland for all to enjoy. The pitch was fantastic, the fans were in their thousands and the stadium was a shining tribute to an association that calls itself the governing body of amateur games while boasting a world class stadium for its members to play in. ... read full story / add a comment

Integrated ticketing is a most desirable move forward in helping public transport users move from one form of public transport to another with relative ease, if only it was as easy as that. Providing an actual operational and successful integrated ticketing system such as those seen on the continent, while desirable is but the final process once we have resolved the various other issues that inhibit the successful introduction of the system. ... read full story / add a comment

Thankfully these men were found out.......Thankfully the police system and legal system could take this to court - to the Crown Court. This is about hard core paedophiles, their fantasies and using websites on the internet to conspire a plan - a plan that would mimic what happened to 'Holly and Jess' RIP, to young girls who experienced a sordid death. ... read full story / add a comment

In order to survive we must eat, when there is a plentiful supply of food we live in the knowledge that since variety is the spice of life and food is in abundance, there is nothing to think about and less to worry about. Despite our preferences towards organically grown produce, modern 21st Century life styles dictate that the foods we eat must be readily available, possibly precooked and ready for consumption at the click of a switch. ... read full story / add a comment

Yesterday I was horrified to see that politic campaigns are getting started and soon we will have to endure giant billboards of Michael McDowell face scaring us at every turn. Something you would not want to run into in a dark alley. But this got me thinking about a serious question, should political parties have anything to do with Students’ Unions? ... read full story / add a comment

In the last number of years we have heard about Gardai indiscipline and Gardai brutality in our country. The Morris Tribunal in Donegal states that is fact. But tonight let us focus on prison in-discipline and prison collusion of hatred within the system. The 17 years I worked with Simon gives rise to meeting a variety of people. They were mostly homeless due to a compulsory overtime system. This system was overturned in the High Court in the 1980's but it was too late for hundreds of officers who suffered from depression and additcton to alcohol within the System. Tonight I give their story. ... read full story / add a comment

Today marks the fourth anniversary of the Pitstop Ploughshares action at Shannon Airport in which a US navy plane was decommissioned with the aid of tools and symbols of peace. This five-part article by Harry Browne charts the journey of the action from inception to acquittal, and in turn, paints a portrait of each of the five activists who sacrificed so much, that others might not suffer. ... read full story / add a comment

antrim / anti-capitalism Thursday February 01, 2007 - 12:23 by Ireland plc
Mrs Thatcher once said 'there was no such thing as society or community', and she dedicated her years in power to destroying many working class communities, through privatisation and closure of industries, and the depletion of council public housing stock by promoting private property ownership. In Thatchers tiny insulated world of isolated inward looking, nuclear family units, living in detached or semi detached private properties, whose only opportunity for socialising is through the workplace, and only allegiance is to their isolated families, and making money. Hence the abundance of programmes on tv promoting buying houses, selling us the capitalist dream. ... read full story / add a comment
