Green Party TD Paul Gogarty's approach to politics is unconventional at the best of times. Readers will remember he recently attracted attention by rolling around the floor and playing dead while a political rival was making a speech at a public meeting. But in the Dáil on Friday December 11th, he used what they call un-parliamentary language to make his feelings known.

Dont buy items with feathers/duvets, jackets, hanging decorations, xmas decorations,....etc.. Down is the soft layer of feathers closest to birds’ skin, primarily on the chest area. These feathers are valued because they do not have any hard quills. Products labeled as “down” may contain a combination of these underfeathers and other feathers or fillers. While most down and feathers are removed from birds during slaughter, geese from breeders and ones bred for meat and those on foie gras farms may be live-plucked. , read full story / add a comment

In an interview, Mary Lou McDonald said she supports the public service workers and wants to see social welfare rates protected. Sinn Fein has offered an alternative to the slash and burn economics of the government which seem to be being accepted by the other political parties. By raising taxes while stimulating the economy and protecting the lower paid, the deepening of this recession can be avoided. read full story / add a comment

People who used to get the Christmas payment include those on the blind pension, Invalidity pension, widows allowance, long term unemployed people, people on carer's allowance, state pension, and the families of those in prison. Contrast their treatment with the pensions paid every week to former government ministers like Ray Burke and Bertie Ahern, or the billions ploughed into the budgets of banks and developers. This year, the Fianna Fáil/Green Party coalition, backed by various Independents, has axed the Christmas payment to pensioners and those on the dole. Yesterday Sinn Féin held a protest outside Leinster Houses demanding that the payment be restored. Aengus Ó Snodaigh said: “Economic recovery will not be achieved by driving people into poverty. The recession will deepen if the government persists in taking money from those who spend it on everyday necessities. If these cuts are not resisted we face a prolonged recession with more and more people living in poverty.” read full story / add a comment

This Sunday join compassionate people from across Ireland and beyond to gather in Dublin for a peaceful march and rally to call for stronger laws in the upcoming animal welfare bill due to be released in 2010 – the rally also aims to highlight the problem of animal abuse in Ireland to the nation and call for tougher penalties for those who abuse animals and who currently get away with a mere a slap on the wrist. The march also aims to establish rights for animals and to remove from society that animals are nothing more than commodities. read full story / add a comment

“The day the political landscape changed forever“, was how Fritjof Capra referred to events of N30, Tuesday 30th of November 1999, in his book The Hidden Connections. He was referring to the day when 1000´s of global justice activists came together and succeeded in shutting down the first WTO (World Trade Organisation) talks in the US using (mostly) non violent direct actions (NVDA) in the north western US city of Seattle. This was the event which brought the “globalisation” debate to the mainstream. It has been misleadingly described as anti-globalisation, what it should be accurately described as is anti corporate globalisation. 10 years on and again there is rubber bullets, tear gas and flames in the streets. This time in Geneva, as people from all over the world converge in the lead up to COP15, the climate change talks in Copenhagen... amongst others, the Social and Climate justice caravan. read full story / add a comment

The Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign took part in this year’s International Week of Solidarity called by the Palestinian Grassroots Anti-Apartheid Wall Campaign (http://www.stopthewall.org). An international call to activists was put out to launch a week of global mobilisation against the walls of apartheid in Palestine from November 9th to 16th 2009. The IPSC used this opportunity to highlight the necessity of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement, with specific reference to the ongoing role of Irish construction company CRH (formerly Cement Roadstone Holdings) in the building of the Apartheid Wall and illegal colonial settlements in the West Bank. read full story / add a comment

Last Friday, same as on all the preceding Fridays the past five years, Bil'in villagers marched to the nearby Apartheid Wall to protest against the theft of over 60% of their land to facilitate the construction of a monstrous affront to international and humanitarian law and the illegal Israeli colonies skulking behind it. Last Friday, same as on all the preceding Fridays for the past five years, the peaceful protestors were assaulted, this time, with unremitting blizzards of tear gas and percussion "sound" bombs with dozens of the marchers severly distressed from tear gas inhalation - thanking the good lord for small mercies, as it were, there were no high velocity tear gas projectiles used, "rockets" of the lethal kind that was fired point blank into the chest of Bassem Abu-Rahma last April 17th smashing three of his ribs one of which punctuted his heart thus killing, murdering him. read full story / add a comment

This is part one of a two part report, based on the Report by The Commission of Investigation into the Catholic Archdiocese of Dublin. Part One deals with the generalities of the report – a damning indictment of the church in general for its handling of the reporting of clerical child sexual abuse, its cover up, and the comlicity (or otherwise) of the Gardaí. Part Two will look at the abuse, abuse, and more abuse handed out by individuals. Prepare yourself for some pretty sickening reading. read full story / add a comment
