I have heard of no case where the department has taken the most rudimentary steps to ascertain whether the so-called "absent father has declined to support his child or children. When did the department last contact such a man and ask him if he was willing to marry the mother, or to accept joint, or even sole custody of his child/children? Not one of, these 70,000 men owes mothers or the State a cent, because there can be no legal obligation on a father to pay "maintenance" for children he has not refused to support in these ways. ... read full story / add a comment

Alcoholism is a bad thing, right? Anybody who makes any attempt to eradicate it deserves our gratitude and encouragement. Well, that’s not the story at all, as it turns out. There is only one way to do it and it’s the Alcoholics Anonymous way. At least according to AA themselves, that is. Theirs is the only thing that works and they are 100% infallible in what they say and do. Jesus Christ had more self-doubt than the AA. ... read full story / add a comment

At a public meeting in Co Cork, a parent in the audience inadvertently used the expression ‘his SNA’ in referring to her son’s Special Needs Assistant while asking a question of one of the speakers. It was an incidental thing in terms of the woman's question but it was interpreted as its central point by the CEO of the National Council for Special Education, Mr Pat Curtain, who was there to tell about all the progress being made by the NCSE in implementing the Education of Persons with Special Needs Act 2004. ... read full story / add a comment

Our Constitution is mocked by our Government's use of their vile and ultimately ficticious "Neutrality Policy." I believe I have found a part of our constitution that forbids our Government from forming such a policy.

to special privileges!!! Like Stallions etc


Ireland

What about making those in control of government departs such as health, transport, education ....... an extract of criminally responsible for reckless or negligent behvaviour......This may enhance Corporate Governance, Accountability, Transparency.

It is time to avoid tangents and focus on our Prisons, our Vulnerable people, a system of health similar to Europeans and lower wages and to ensure we do not stand away from the principles Of James Connolly and Jim Larkin. We have fought hard in Ireland for fair wages let us not discriminate now. Well done Joe Higgins going out to Turkey re. the Gama workers. Let us ask were low wages costed in to the construction contract!!!!

What annoys me most in Ireland now - Committees and more committees followed by academic research, research and more research. The publications are beyond a joke now.
