Time is up for the most pointless layer of officialdom of modern times. In a rare moment of good sense, the Labour Government is abolishing Police and Crime Commissioners. It's not a moment too soon, says Paul Birch.

BBC staff have always been very Left-wing, but they used to avoid letting it show. That all changed in 2014, first with climate change, then trans, then anything 'Right-wing'. It's been a disaster, says Iain Macwhirter.

Given as Shell’s site in Ballinaboy contains 400 acres, ten times more than the size of the refinery they are building at the moment, Shell to Sea activists have long suspected it is to be the first of many. A report published by the Petroleum Affairs Division of the Department of Communications, Marine and Natural Resources, earlier this year envisages the construction of more refineries and more pipelines in Erris, in addition to the Corrib gas development, involving companies other than just Shell, and with state encouragement.

tyrone / rights, freedoms and repression / event notice Wednesday December 13, 2006 17:03 by West Tyrone
Traditionally for republicans the month of December has been ‘Prisoners Month’. This year will be no different. 12 IRA POWs are still being held in various jails throughout Ireland.

This is totally unacceptable given the historic decision by the army to call an end to the armed campaign in July 2005. It is equally unacceptable that this is happening 8 years after the signing of the Good Friday agreement, which should have secured their release, and over 10 years from the initiation of a peace process this is totally unacceptable.

Corporate power and rulership in western societies is complete, governments either conform to corporate dictates or are quickly replaced by compliant political alternatives. The management of information via the monopolised mass media and the complete domination of the economy maintain and sustain corporate supremacy. The masses suffer increased subjection (debt slavery) and vulnerability (limited options) as a result of decreased representation by governments. Corporate rule has reduced the real status of the public to servility and subservience, not dissimilar to the ancient Roman model of kept house-slaves. The belief that Roman slaves were constantly maltreated is based on erroneous images (whipped galley-slaves) that Hollywood and the entertainment industry have popularised. Ancient Roman slaves lived in basic but tolerable conditions, similar (in relative terms) to the servile masses of today. read full story / add a comment

A consortium of Shell, Statoil, and Marathon do a deal with the government allowing them exclusive exploitation rights to the Corrib gas field, off Mayo. Not only that, but they are allowed to write off their costs against taxes, meaning that the whole project is being funded by the PAYE taxpayer, who will receive nothing, not even lower gas prices. It may sound a bit iffy but there is no garda investigation into possible bribery or corruption.

Upon reading one of the redtops (tabloids) on the weekend of 3rd Sept 2006 I came across an interesting article by journalist John Mooney. The article led me on to search for a website referred to in the article. The website itself was interesting and gave an indepth background into the case of Michael McKevitt. However, one thing was confirmed to me during my search, that one can be seriously misinformed and mislead by the print media and the redtops in particular. read full story / add a comment
