"In the early morning of 21st July, neo-nazi skinheads launched a vicious and unprovoked attack on an anti-nuclear protest camp in Angarsk, Siberia, Russia. The nazis violently attacked activists in their sleeping bags and tents with iron rods, knives and air pressure guns. 21 year old Ilya Borodaenko from Nachodka suffered a head-fracture during the attack and later died in hospital from his injuries. At least nine others have been reported to be seriously injured, one of which has had both their legs broken. Tents were set on fire and several belongings were stolen."

Bertie Gormley our new minister for Dublin 6W has flown his first kite (as feeble mid-week press releases aimed at popular opinion & concern are known in the trade). & what a load of sticky bollox it is too. Gormley wants to increase "on-the-spot" fines for littering from 125eu to 150eu & is considering asking the producers of Chewing Gum to increase their environmental awareness spending on proper disposal of the by-product of the petrol industry to a whopping 2 million. Oh sorry did I say "whopping"? Now let's remind ourselves that whilst Gardai monitoring Salafists at the Custom House wear bullet proof vests large companies up and down the country are illegally dumping poisonous waste removed from dubious sites. And we probably don't have the resources to reduce the gummy menace on two million alone. It's pittance. Sure a Green deputy could forget he inherited just short of that on Oil Corp shares. Lets Stamp out Gum! read full story / add a comment
