In considering the recent revelations about Mark Haddock’s UVF career at tax payer’s expense, as a killer informant for the RUC, let us not forget Ian Paisley.

Last week the Historical Enquiries Team of the PSNI was forced to apologise to Eugene Reavey for the RUC whispering campaign that tried to justify the sectarian shooting of Reavey’s three brothers in January 1976 in Whitecross, south Armagh. The shootings happened the day before the Kingsmill massacre of 10 Protestant civilians on January 5 1976, in the same general area. Three members of the O’Dowd family were also shot dead by the UVF the previous day. The Reavey and O’Dowd killings happened within 30 minutes of each other. read full story / add a comment

Sudanese citizens in rural Darfur

Over three months after Irish politicians first raised the issue, the National Pension Reserve Fund still holds investments to the tune of over €30 million in corporations providing revenue to the Sudanese government. Darfur, a province in western Sudan, has in recent times been host to one of the most significant humanitarian debacles of the last few years. It has prompted widespread calls for an ethical investment policy which would prevent taxpayer’s money from contributing to what the US refers to as “a policy of genocide” in the region. In December, I spoke to Senator David Norris, one of the most vocal Irish political figures on this issue. read full story / add a comment

In a formal statement to an Irish Times journalist a spokesperson for the Governemnt said yesterday that there are ‘no plans at the moment’ to include members of the Pagan community to the first structured talks between the State and various faith groups.

In excluding those of Pagan faith the Government is quite content to contribute to the continued malignisation and sidelining of thousands of people. The exclusion also constitutes a wilful neglect of duty to these Irish people.

After 3 months of asking for assistance for a support project for the WSF, things did´nt come through, why?
