Protesters from Dublin Shell to Sea managed to evade the heavy security at the Fianna Fáil Ard Fheis this morning. A number of activists held a protest at the main door of the Ard Fheis venue inside the City West complex.

A banner was unfurled and one protester spoke to conference delegates through a megaphone, pointing out that the people of Ireland were being forced by the government to watch as their natural resources were handed over to Shell and Statoil, with nothing coming back, while the people of Erris have to put up with the severe degradation of their environment and unacceptable risks to their lives.

The protesters, some of whom were wearing masks of Bertie Ahern and Noel Dempsey, were soon surrounded by Gardaí and security guards.

Sinn Féin are calling for five hundred new buses for Dublin.

The money is there, but the Govt won't act because the PD's insist that the new buses must be for privately-run routes. So while their neo-con ideology insists on more subsidies for their friends in big business, Dublin commuters have to wait at bus stops.

In the rain.

The Irish department of Foreign Affairs has instructed our South African ambassador
to go to Harare and make known Our State's displeasure at the arresting, beating up and
murder of MDC activists and opposition.

It would be a fine day if they did the same with the US ambassador, but thats
a whole other story, not to mention the one year long attempt by the EU to
elicit response from Dermot on Rendition.

We do not have an ambassador to Zimbabwe.

The twist is this. :
