Spain and Portugal?s Blackout Reveals the Achilles? Heel of Electricity Grids Dominated by Wind and ... Tue Apr 29, 2025 17:00 | Anonymous Engineer
The power outage in Spain and Portugal wasn't caused by extreme weather, but by an over-reliance on wind and solar. If the UK continues on its headlong path to Net Zero, we can expect similar failures.

Why do we fail to deport those whom we should deport? It's due in the end, says Dr David McGrogan, to an excess of pity. We are pitying ourselves into disorder and social decay. We need to be willing not to be nice.

Ógra Shinn Féin is to launch a nationwide campaign calling for voting rights to be extended to citizens in the Six Counties for the Irish presidential election.

Ógra Shinn Féin is to launch a nationwide campaign calling for voting rights to be extended to citizens in the Six Counties for the Irish presidential election. The campaign will be formally launched by Sinn Féin MLA Gerry Kelly, at Ógra Shinn Féin's National Congress in Dublin on 17th January.

National Organiser of Ógra Shinn Féin, Micky Bravender said:

"At our National Congress this weekend Ógra Shinn Féin will launch a nationwide campaign calling for voting rights to be extended to citizens in the Six Counties for the Irish Presidential election.

"This campaign will run the length and breadth of Ireland, from Kerry to Derry and will continue until we secure the first All-Ireland elections since 1918.

"We plan to organise rallies in support of this campaign, and more importantly, we will lobby every Council, Corporation and elected chamber in Ireland to get their backing for this campaign.

"While we do not underestimate the challenges that lie ahead, we are confident that by the end of 2004 we will have made history in achieving the first all Ireland elections in 86 years, and will have moved the prospect of Irish unity decisively forward"
