A consortium of Shell, Statoil, and Marathon do a deal with the government allowing them exclusive exploitation rights to the Corrib gas field, off Mayo. Not only that, but they are allowed to write off their costs against taxes, meaning that the whole project is being funded by the PAYE taxpayer, who will receive nothing, not even lower gas prices. It may sound a bit iffy but there is no garda investigation into possible bribery or corruption. ... read full story / add a comment

The Mail on Sunday returns today to the story the Irish Times and Irish Independent don't want to touch with a forty-foot pole. It is ironic that an Irish edition of a Conservative English newspaper shows more gumption in exposing this scandal than Irish owned newspapers. See also: http://www.indymedia.ie/article/80012 - for previous Mail coverage of this story and how the Times and Indo have effectively ignored it. Who are these newspapers protecting? The Fine Gael-Labour coalition of 1973-77, who ran scared from the bombs and instituted a reign of repression and terror against republicans and the (minority) of socialists who stood up to them, that's who. ... read full story / add a comment |
