That ICTU has singularly failed public sector workers is absolutely indisputable – the events of the last few weeks have only served to show in the most gruesome manner the appalling state of the current “leadership”.

Aminatou Haidar is now three weeks drinking sugar-water at Lanzarote airport because her papers were stolen by Morocco. The Spanish government has little to say on the issue of a Peace-activist and Nobel recommended woman dying on their doorstep and Morocco presses ahead with whatever attracts them in the Western Sahara. http://www.thinkspain.com/news-spain/17393/fedissah-pre...ation read full story / add a comment

Last month in it's 22ND report, the Independent Monitoring Commission (IMC) alleged that Concerned Families Against Drugs (CFAD) were, 'a vigilante group who was responsible for a number of punishment shootings and pipe-bombings of suspected Drug Dealers' in the North Belfast area. Although, we were surprised and dismayed at these unfounded allegations, given that the IMC had not contacted CFAD before issuing its report. CFAD complained to the IMC through our legal representative and were subsequently invited to meet with the IMC today (8/12/09). read full story / add a comment

Yesterday, on Monday the 7th of December, Mr Robert Ševcik was in the Richmond Court to conclude a marathon hearing that had spilled into a second day. Mr. Ševcik an animal rights activist, was answering to four charges, ranging from threatening, insulting and abusive behaviour, under the Public Order Act, to failing to produce his passport upon demand, under the Immigration Act. All of these charges arose out of a protest at Barnado's Furriers on Grafton st. close to the Molly Malone statue, on the 18th of October, 2008. It was a case littered with perjury, a missing garda sergeant and a mysterious garda inspector. Nonetheless, at the end of the case, the judge accepted Mr Ševcik's evidence and he walked out of the court, with each and every charge dismissed.
