The local election results are as terrible for the Conservatives as feared and thanks to Reform they would have been lucky to have had only a 1997-style wipeout, says veteran pollster John Curtice.

HIV discoverer Luc Montagnier deduced from the 'HIV inserts' in the SARS-CoV-2 genome that it was engineered. But he didn't think it could be a 'bioweapon': it just wasn't dangerous enough.

Sinn Féin Protest Private Health Conference

Sinn Féin Protest

Protest at Private Health Conference.

Sinn Féin activists today protested outside the
Crowne Plaza Hotel, Northwood, Santry, venue of a Private Health
Conference which was addressed by the Minister for Health Mary Harney.
The protest, which was held at 8 am, highlighted Sinn Fein's
continued opposition to the ongoing sell off of the health service.

Speaking in Dublin today Sinn Féin Councillor Dessie Ellis said " The fact
that the Minister was recently too busy to meet with the nurses section of
SIPTU but is available to speak to a Private Health Conference speaks
volumes about the government-led push towards privatisation of the health
service.

"Myself and other Sinn Féin activists are outside this conference
today to protest on behalf of all victims of government policy
on healthcare. For eleven years a Bertie Ahern led government has failed
completely to reform the health service and provide a fair and equitable
system. Universal healthcare should be a cornerstone of any government's
policy. Mary Harney would be better off spending time with the workers in
the health service who are committed to making the system work, and should
not be cozying up to profit driven corporations.

Fair play to Sinn Féin for getting out on the streets and confronting Mary Harney and her ilk. Don't mind the begrudgers and the nay sayers lads. Keep up the good work!

Fair play to the protesters who got up early and made life a bit less comfortable to those who want to turn the health service into a profit driven business.

It's just sad to see that indymedia.ie is turning into a place for saddo keyboard republicans to spend their time attacking those who are active on issues like this. Maybe if Mary Harney had sought to put a jumpsuit on a statue we'd see some of these chancers actually take some action...
