Can Badenoch Turn the Tory Net Zero Boat Around? Thu Mar 20, 2025 07:00 | Ben Pile
Kemi Badenoch's Net Zero scepticism seemingly marks a new chapter in Britain's climate wars. But is it going to be enough to change her party or the country? Not if she's still chasing after "clean energy", says Ben Pile.

Judge Nolan said that it would be ‘unjust’ to impose prison sentences on the Anglo pair. Judge Gilligan jails 5 IW protesters. The law is an ass.
Thousands are at the emergency water charges protest against Garda repression and the jailing of 5 for protesting within 20m of meter installations.
Many of the speakers are those arrested in the dawn raids of the last two weeks and are getting a great reception from the crowd. We are now marching on Mountjoy prison
Courtsey of WSM
The crowd at the march heard today that two of the anti-water charges protestors have gone on hunger strike.
Meanwhile our bailed out bond holders, bankers and developers are doing just fine and have nothing to worry about.
Ruth Coppinger (Socialist Party) claimed the “Garda Síochána is operating in a political fashion that benefits the Government”, in the arrests over seven days of Tallaght residents.
She said she received a letter from a garda and quoted: “What is really bringing the gardaí into disrepute is not the water charge protesters, but the Government that is using us against them.”
She also quoted: “An Garda Síochána is paying a heavy prices for their role in the introduction of the water tax. We are losing credibility with the ordinary man and woman.”
Ms Coppinger said gardaí and the courts were being used to “defend corporate interests and the establishment . . . in the anti-water charge protests”. There was no other way to describe the policing of communities protesting against the installation of water meters, she said.

Where we live in an age where the gardai siochana,are used wrongfully to collect revenue for one dominant media operation - RTE. Should we be really that suprised and outraged at the recent water debacle?We have a problem when we have our police, courts & prison service hijacked as tools of coercion to fund one dominant media business - RTE. This is the root problem,its a culture of bullying for revenue for cronies and we have PUT UP WITH IT. Should we blame ourselves?Its absolutely and abomination and disgraceful that someone can be sent to prison for unlicenced TV possession.

RTE - get plenty of revenue from advertisments,rugby and so on,why do they need extra revenue??To feed the bloated salaries of unimaginitive dinosaur presenters like pat kenny,gaybo or tubs?
This is a chance to tell them we don't want fluoride in the water....
The five jailed anti water charges protestors have been freed. One was released after he apologized to the judge and the other 4 take their case to the High Court and had their sentences suspended following what were termed errors in the committal warrant ordering the protesters’ detention in prison.
One has to ask whether the government gave the nod to allow a mechanism for them to be released while saving face. In other circumstances the judicial system in numerous cases of corruption is not so eager to follow the rules of engagement. For example follow any of the cases documented on Integrity Ireland http://www.integrityireland.ie/
Perhaps the government figured that the longer they were in jail the more the issue would be kept alive and it just might increase support.
Either way their release is good news and no doubt a relief to them all to be out of there.
