offsite link Scientist Who Called Neighbour a ?Spanish Whore? Cautioned by Police for Hate Crime and Struck Off Mon Aug 05, 2024 15:45 | Will Jones
A biomedical scientist who called her Portuguese neighbour a "Spanish whore" during a row over a fire alarm was cautioned by police for a hate crime and struck off. No wonder the cops have no time to solve burglaries.

England's seaside towns, like Southport, are microcosms of the country at large, where the magnificent infrastructure has been neglected to the point of decay and we barbarians live amongst its ruins, says Joanna Gray.

The Climate Change Committee has just released its 2024 report and its full of contradictions, reports David Turver. Reducing our reliance on oil and gas and making electricity cheaper are incompatible policy objectives.

When Ben Pile moved into a new house he got a nasty surprise. It had a prepayment meter that was about to run out of credit. Fixing this proved to be absurdly hard, which, presumably, is just what the green lobby wants.

Yesterday the court at Belmullet was full to capacity with many standing as a number of cases related to the controversial Corrib gas project were heard. By now people will be aware of the miscarriage of justice that was the case for “Chief” Pat O’Donnell, his son Jonathan and Enda Carey (more on this below) but there were also a couple of other cases that related to Shell to Sea campaigners. read full story / add a comment

Prior to the recent Dail election, the one constant prediction had been of very large gains for Sinn Fein. In the event, the party made a modest gain in its vote share, from 6.5% to 6.9%, a credible gain in absolute votes from 120,000 to 140,000, but failed to win any new seats and suffered the high-profile loss of Sean Crowe in Dublin South-West. read full story / add a comment

In the last while attention on this site has been brought yet again to the suicide crises & adjacent mental health issues amongst our young. We've read much & been directed to yet other sites and resources who like most of us want to do our bit to tackle the problem. There seems to be growing concensus that the nasty hard approach just isn't working. Yet we've still got some work to do in appraising what that means & how it ought influence contemporary anarchist & friends activism, conversation, chit-chat & attitude. It goes without saying the judicial, penal & educational policies and frameworks of both the Irish state & Irish society have a role to play. But lest we get diverted into learning a list of "warning signs" & "indicators" of those dealing with the various psychological or emotional challenges which may lead to suicide I thought to bring it back to primary school.

We don't know at what stage the branch davidian group of fundamentalist christians of mount Carmel in Waco, Texas crossed the line of extremism. Most people don't remember what the suspected crime was which brought the US federal agencies complete with tanks and psychological weaponry to lay seige to the compound & demand its leader David Koresh to surrender. Was the illegal fully automatic weapons which neighbours professed to hear or the rumours that Koresh had taken unto him as wives all the females (some barely adolescent) in the compound to mother his children? Few will tell you that the Oklahoma bombing of a Federal social security office by Timothy Veigh & others as revenge for the Waco massacre was first atttributed to Islamic fundamentalists. We now know the FBI regretted the crises as soon as the charred remains of the children were brought out of the rubble. Musharraf's attack on the Lal Masjid or Red Mosque of Islamabad is comparable. read full story / add a comment

Surely a pet dog cannot be taken from someone purely because he is a certain breed, especially if he is under proper control and has not done anything wrong. If Dublin City Council can get away with this unfair proposition then what will come next?. This situation must constitute discrimination at the very least.

The very idea that DCC are responsible for dogs who bite people on council property is wrong surely?. It was my understanding that owners are responsible for the actions of their pets. If a person falls off a ladder in a Council house are the Council responsible for that too Besides being indiscriminate , this proposition is unenforceable. Where will the dogs be taken to and by whom?. Who will rehome them??? How long will they be kept and where?

There is already legislation already in place against dog fighting, if this law was enforced we would not have this problem.

In 1941 a bill was brought before the Dail which would make trade unions pay for licences to negotiate on behalf of their members. Without a licence workers and their unions could be sued by employers for loss of profits if they went on strike.
