?Positive? Discrimination is Putting Lives at Risk Mon Apr 28, 2025 13:00 | Daniel Fessahaye
There is no such thing as 'positive' discrimination. And when it creeps into life-or-death professions like policing or flying a plane, it stops being merely unjust. It becomes dangerous, says Daniel Fessahaye.

One cannot but help feeling a little pleased when one moves the Corporators to do something; and to suck seed in getting them to remove the years accumulation of rubbish from Dun laoghaire beach was very sweet today.
Perhaps, they will now take a fresh look at this beautiful sea enclave and realise that it is a jewel beyond price and with a little care could bring great rewards to the town itself - much more in the long run than any concrete erection could spew out.
As usual the madding crowd think the case is lost and it is up to the few to point out the danger they face of losing the soul of Dunlaoghaire to some Satan for a few million dollars which will be quickly frittled away.
The crescent is already beautifully laid out, thanks to our old enemies, the English, with steps and seats for visitors and walkers and the sea never gets far from the shore so one can swim even at low tide without having to walk miles over sand. The shore is quite rocky out to the end of the walkway piers of this 'gebiet wonderschon'making it a natural paradise and a bathers dream.
It is to be wondered how any body could ever contemplate putting such a 'gebiet' under concrete and what legal right has anybody to build on the foreshow below the high water mark. If this goes ahead, every Joe Soap with land bordering on the sea will be able to extend his acrage simply by moving his mountains into the sea and we will wind up with no Irish Sea but a condominium from here to Wales.
Above is a picture of the only beach in Dun Laoghaire town which the corporators propose to have burried by the asbestos and other rubble from Carlisle pier which they also want to move so that it can lokewise serve as a foundation for the erections of their greedy property grabbing landlord brethern and their tenaments.
This is the oldest and best bathing and swimming part of the whole of Dublin bay.
The water today at noon when I swam there was almost full tide and was crystal clear. The area is laid out perfectly for people to use the seaside whether in the water or just lounging by it.
Only an administration steeped in greed and with no concern for the welfare of its people now and in the future would allow such a place of natural beauty to be burried under concrete
