The Bantry Concerned Action Group want the ESB to put this 14km stretch of powerline underground, as is the accepted norm now internationally, for health and safety reasons. Know this … pylons and overhead lines cause leukaemia and cancer.

Following the recent high court injunction granted to the ESB against 6 Bantry landowners, effective from last Thursday June 1st, local residents, inspired by the Rossport Five, are committed to treating this injunction with the contempt it deserves and will be blockading any attempts by the ESB to start work on their land from tomorrow Tuesday 6th June onwards. read full story / add a comment

'Fearless' Sindo fears to mention who wrote Daily Mail "sneer"
international / arts and media / opinion/analysis Monday June 05, 2006 00:08 by Harry Wells   text 17 comments (last - wednesday june 21, 2006 01:20)   image 6 images
The Sunday Independent today exposes The Sun and Daily Mail’s cynical hypocrisy in giving their two audiences in Ireland and Britain totally opposite messages with regard to Ken Loach’s prize-winning film ‘The Wind that Shakes the Barley’. The film depicts the brutal nature of Britain’s war against Irish Independence between 1919-21 and the subsequent Civil War conflict.

In Britain The Sun boldly states Loach's film to be “the most pro IRA ever” and the Daily Mail asks “Why does” the “Marxist” film’s director Ken Loach “loath his country so much”. In the ‘Irish’ editions of these British tabloids, on the other hand, the film is an “Irish success” story.

The Sunday Independent wants to associate with the national "success" and to denounce its rivals' imperial "sneer" at the same time.

However, the Sunday Independent simultaneously exposes its own schizophrenia while doing so. It manages to deliver exactly the same conflicting messages in the one newspaper, the story of Irish success and also a “sneer” at this success.

How so? Read on. read full story / add a comment
Some of the crowd at the Justice for Terence Wheelock Protest

One year on from the unexplained death of Terence Wheelock after his detention in Store Street Garda Station, his family, his community and the wider Irish public demand some meaningful answers. In that time, the gardaí have paid their respects by physically attacking the Wheelock family and continuing their harassement of youths from Dublin's east inner city.

Indymedia has videod and otherwise documented garda brutality in the past, only to see those caught red-handed, be exhonerated by the irish Justice System. However, the deaths of Brian Rossiter, 'Johnner' Moloney, and Terence Wheelock, and the lack of accountability regarding numerous garda usage of lethal force, point to something very sinister among the ranks of the Guardians of the Peace, and a willingness to cover up, if not sanction it, within the Department of Justice. read full story / add a comment

Anti Fascist Action and members of Anarchist Youth routed a planned meeting of Nazi bonehead gang, the Celtic Wolves in Dublin city centre yesterday. What was planned as the first meeting in Dublin this year for these sad tossers ended in utter humiliation as anti-fascists first evicted them from their meeting point in a city centre pub and then proceeded to beat them up and down O'Connell Street.

Is a cosy consensus the same thing as the rule of law? How are politicians or judges prevented from mucking about with the law, introducing bad law, administering the law in a partial or unfair way? Does the system require more checks and balances? Is obscurity and obfuscation the order of the day? Are we taking the modh direach to a lawless and capricious Alice-In-Wonderland world? read full story / add a comment
