national / consumer issues Friday June 29, 2007 - 10:37 by AIMS Ireland
“Every woman deserves to have her mother in the delivery room with her” I remember reading these words on rollercoaster.ie years ago from a young scared Irish woman due with her first baby. Her heartfelt plea for help…her desperation for ANY suggestion ….of ANY possible way that she could persuade her maternity hospital to make the exception to the rule and allow her mother and husband in with her for the labour and birth. Likewise I remember the replies of other women…women who have gone through it before…women who dripped with cynicism because they too would have liked this choice but knew what her outcome would be. The pain, confusion and fear of that sad, sad post have stayed with me over the years. Unfortunately it looks like very little has changed for women in some areas of Ireland . While many maternity units around the country are receptive of additional birthing partners and Doulas, the Dublin hospitals remain unresponsive. AIMS Ireland has decided to look deeper into this issue. ... read full story / add a comment

Reacting to the announcement that loyalist Willie Frazier is to meet with senior gardai in 26-County government buildings on June 21 to seek permission to hold a loyalist march or rally in Dublin, possibly in July, Republican Sinn Féin pledged to oppose such an event. A previous attempt to force a loyalist march through O’Connell St in February 2006 had to be abandoned due to the scale of the protest. ... read full story / add a comment

On the morning of Monday 18th of June. The squatted autonomous social centre Villa squattus dei in Leuven Belgium was evicted. The Eviction came without warning, giving the squatters no chance to remove their belongings. Thankfully as the squat had only been used as a social centre for the last few months and not as living space, no one was inside, and no arrests were made. The contents of the house were emptied into a skip. ... read full story / add a comment

The revelation that none of the Poles seeking enlistment in the RUC were successful in their applications gives them the opportunity to reconsider allowing themselves to become involved with the British Forces of Occupation. The Polish people have a proud tradition of opposing collaboration within their own borders, and so too should they oppose it here in Ireland. ... read full story / add a comment

Any visit to Ireland by Elizabeth Windsor is unacceptable and deeply offensive whilst her government and Armed Forces maintain England's Occupation of six Irish counties. Relations between Ireland and England can never be normal whilst such a crime continues to be perpetrated against this country and her people. Comments made in Lisburn by the 26-County Head of State are clearly designed to pave the way for such a visit. ... read full story / add a comment

The finding of the BBC's “State of Minds – The Children” programme that sectarianism is rife amongst children is unsurprising within the context of continuing English rule in Ireland. The English government has always sought to divide and conquer, and this has been no different in Ireland. Furthermore the 1998 Stormont Agreement served to institutionalise sectarianism. ... read full story / add a comment
