offsite link Fifty Ways to Leave the European Convention on Human Rights Fri Apr 19, 2024 17:28 | Dr David McGrogan
Rishi Sunak has once again been dropping hints about leaving the European Convention on Human Rights. This is not credible, says Dr David McGrogan: such a feat would require a Government far more serious than this one.

offsite link Woke Activists Need to Read Their David Hume Fri Apr 19, 2024 11:16 | Dr James Allan
The great Scottish Enlightenment philosopher David Hume would have some things to teach today's woke activists, says Prof James Allan: about a mind-independent reality that has no truck with claims of 'my truth'.

It's been a wet winter and this is bad news for farmers, says Ben Pile. But with agricultural yields increasing sharply over recent decades, there's no reason to link it to climate change or start catostrophising about it.

1916 Proclamation was read out at Tara before GPO

category national | environment | other press author Tuesday February 12, 2008 19:58author by Cael Report this post to the editors

Tradition of Resistance

From the IRBB website

I've just been reading in an excellent lecture by Brendan Myers, Dept. of Philosophy, UCG., that the Proclamation was read out on the Hill of Tara before it was read out at the GPO. Does anyone have any more information about this?

I see those valiant citizens who today stop the Gombeen bulldozers with their own bodies stand in a long and proud tradition. From the same lecture:

Some of Ireland's most noteworthy public figures in the
late 19th to early 20th century, including Arthur Griffith, Maude Gonne,
W.B. Yeats, George Moore, and Douglass Hyde, all protected Tara from being
excavated by the British Isrealite Association by physically interposing
themselves between the monuments of the hill and the bulldozers sent
there to demolish them. The British Isrealites were looking for the
Arc of the Covenant, which they thought was buried under the earthworks
now known as the Rath of the Synods.
