There's method in Trump's tariff madness, says Ramesh Thakur. Uniting his America First, anti-Net Zero and anti-DEI policies is an imperative to untangle the US from strategic dependence on an ascendant China.

does voting more than once count as non violent direct action?

Intrigue.

I have gone to the second stage and then viewed the sites on a) Outsourcing the prison escort service proposal and even more interesting b) the establishment of a Property Registry Authority.

Unsure if this is a hoax message, I have read both and find the Property Registry Authority proposal (econveyancing) and speed of transaction reality, most interesting.

For an anti-corruption seeking Nation, what would be better than a tight system of recording property sales, ensuring accuracy of deeds, registration of sales in the names of those making the purchase.......this has great scope to ensure a more equitable procedure in property law. (I think something similar was carried out in the UK a number of years ago; and if so it curbed the amounts paid to the legal profession.

"Bluewater shopping centre decided it was time to face the Muzak. They have banned the wearing of hooded tops and baseball caps anywhere inside their private retail park. Can there be any greater punishment than being banned from one of Europe's largest shopping malls?"...... "Of course you'll still be able to buy baseball caps and hooded tops in Bluewater, it's just that if you say, "No, I don't need a bag, I think I'll keep it on," you'll be wrestled to the ground by security guards the moment you walk out of the shop."

There are better ways of going about things than an online petition :-

Now lets try again? What about this Indymedia site?

Is it credible? I copied same to a number ministers in Government and strange nobody seemed to replay


Then this Week.......Vincent Browne talks about a similar sight.


Is this an interesting initiative by the Minister for Justice..........I like the idea of an electronic register for deeds etc...........not that this seems relevant to those non resident in Ireland and who fly in as unamed passengers to Irish Airports.

Of course how about a large 'mansion' detached property in Raglan Road that does not make you accountable for tax because the Beaver tax advisers and lawyers' come up with the loop hole.......No Kitchen


It is wakey wakey time for the Irish people who pay their tax.
