One figure that has been repeatedly cited in the grooming gangs debate is that 1 in 73 Muslim men in the town of Rotherham has been prosecuted for grooming gang offences. However, this figure is slightly misleading.

As you no doubt all now know, 60 years ago, the big war ended, when we the peoples of Eire were in the emergency, because we didn't know which was worse liberal imperialism or nazi-ism or bolshevism and if neutrality had worked for Franco and the Swiss, it might work for us too.

And on the 8th of May it ended in Europe. Well it had sort of ended before that, but the official ending was the 8th and the Russians held off making official announcements till the 9th. How did it really end? You may ask. ... read full story / add a comment

"A new criminal justice bill is currently being pushed through the Dáil by the Minister for Justice, Michael McDowell.

There are a WHOLE raft of measures in the legislation that have the
potential to seriously infringe on civil liberties. However, there are
two specific areas we feel need to be highlighted, in that they are
targeted at young people. These are the introduction of On The Spot
Fines and Anti Social Behaviour orders. It is our belief that the
introduction of these provisions will dramatically impact on Irish
people's civil liberties. That's why we've joined forces with the Union
of Students in Ireland and are launching an online petition opposing the
introduction of On The Spot Fines and Anti Social Behaviour Orders in
Ireland."

Instead – as she jet-hopped from Brazil to Colombia to Chile to El Salvador – the week brought a chain reaction of defeats for her government’s impositions on other lands and victories for the democracy that surges from below...." ... read full story / add a comment
