Animal rights colleagues and myself from the Alliance for Animal Rights had teamed up with the Star newspaper when they offered to highlight the pigs plight and we offered to try our utmost to get new homes and locations for the then considered 'inedible' pigs. The Irish Department of Agriculture have killed all of the 200 pigs that survived the accident last week in Kerry. Apparently they are edible and are being used as food, we were told that 11 were killed for supposedly 'humane ' reasons.They refused to give them to us after they survived the accident, we were prepared to help them to live out their lives as most animals do,when fate gives them a second chance. read full story / add a comment

There are two small protests outside Sinn Féin’s special Ard fhéis. One is made up of a small number of men who hold up a poster saying “No Terrorists in government”, they belong to the Love Ulster campaign. The other is made up of Republican Sinn Fein members (mainly young men). They distribute leaflets with the message “True Republicans say: No British police, no British laws, no British courts” and re-iterate their call for Eire Nua and a full British withdrawal from Ireland. read full story / add a comment

But not only they did put an end to the US-backed reign of terror of the Duvaliers, but as well, the people were pushing forward a series of popular demands that were meant to radically change the face of Haiti: this was a truly revolutionary struggle. read full story / add a comment

In light of President Bush’s determination to send an additional 21,000 plus troops to Iraq, regardless of the position of Congress and the American people, the citizens of the United States must be made aware of the ongoing experimentation and outright disregard for our American troops.

This evening Shell to Sea activists picketed and protested outside Shell's partner-in-crime, Statoil's (franchised) Service Station in Newcastle Road.
