Last weekend a story broke in the UK, of how a Home office official had offered a speedy asylum process to a Zimbabwean rape victim (18) in return for sex. Many Irish people might have missed this, being concentrated as they were on asylum seekers in St. Patrick's cathedral, and since then Mc dowell's legal disaster which puts our children at risk and has blown the lid on the judicial treatment of underage sex and the questionable sentances handed down. The UK story makes an interesting "compare & contrast". read full story / add a comment

It looks as if we will be able to lead the Catholic Church on a merry dance regarding the 'Rhythm Method'. This method, the only one approved by the Vatican may kill off more embryos than other forms of contraception. Pope Benny will not be well pleased.

Irish authorities actively covered up loyalist death squad actions Brother of Martin Doherty, who was killed in a 1994 gun and bomb attack on the Widow Scallan’s pub in Dublin, calls for full disclosure Jarlath Kearney 25/05/2006 Irish government authorities have actively covered up the actions of loyalist death squads that operated in the 26 Counties during the 1990s, a Daily Ireland probe today reveals. The objective of the persistent, top-level cover-ups has been to protect well-placed RUC/PSNI and British intelligence agents operating in both the Ulster Defence Association and Ulster Volunteer Force. The conduct of the Irish authorities raises serious legal, constitutional and human-rights questions for Irish citizens affected by the attacks. read full story / add a comment

Concerns have been raised over the transparency of one of Ireland’s biggest proposed developments. The €2 billion (£1.4 billion) plan by the Pizarro Development Consortium to build a high-density development on the 62-acre site on Bray town golf course in Co Wicklow was passed by Bray Town Council and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council earlier this month. Local residents have strongly objected to the plan, concerned it will cause widespread flooding in the Little Bray part of town, affecting more than 700 homes. The residents are holding a public meeting next Monday to discuss a campaign to have the high-density build of shops, offices and residential homes moved away from the River Dargle flood plain and relocated to higher ground on the site. Picture shows Sinn Fein Cllr. John Brady with Sinn Fein TD Sean Crowe and party member Marie Gavaghan checking proposed plans for develepment on the natural flood plain on in the Dargle valley, Bray, Co. Wicklow.

One day Bob Dylan poured a bottle of whiskey over his head and walked into a department store pretending to be drunk so that he would get some bad press. He found that being thrust into the role of ‘the conscience of a nation’ encroached on his privacy and interfered with his creativity and he wanted his freedom back. Those involved in political struggle in the USA placed an onerous responsibility on Dylan, demanding of him his talent, his time, his total commitment. Regardless of how he later revised his stance, the early songs which shot him to fame were the work of an artist responding to injustice and oppression and the politics of the day. He was heavily influenced by, of course, Woodie Guthrie, but was also open to the songs of Brecht and Weill as well as Irish rebel music. read full story / add a comment

UDA gunman and British agent Ken Barrett was freed by the Sentence Review Commission yesterday after applying for early release under the terms of the Good Friday Agreement. read full story / add a comment

Furthermore, theology induces passivity to authority – there is no better method of creating compliance than theology. Who else would quietly accept injustice, various forms of deprivation and huge disparities in the distribution of wealth than those who imagine it is the result of demerit, sin or the will of some God? Many extremely intelligent and capable people become observably handicapped when the subject/spectre of religion rears its illogical, paralysing and fear-inducing head. Never doubt the power that is born of theological indoctrination (child abuse) and the resultant fear that it engenders (usually for life). read full story / add a comment

"Now some of those who would not give even a cup of water to those struggling for Irish national independence down the years, were climbing on the bandwagon of material gain and self- aggrandisement. It was a far cry from the beds of pain of the hunger strikers in the H-Blocks to the comfort of ministerial seats under British rule in Stormont and the cosiness and luxury of heavily-subsidised English offices in Westminster." read full story / add a comment

In case you haven't noticed, the assembly meeting up at Stormont isn't the Northern Ireland Assembly established by the Good Friday Agreement. It's 'the assembly' as the school-marmy speaker keeps telling her class. Oh yes, the speaker. At the first gathering Bob McCartney asked why she was calling herself the speaker when she hadn't been elected by the assembly. Cos our proconsul appointed me speaker, that's why, so there. read full story / add a comment
