THE Ryanair boss has made big mistakes, buying fuel at inflated prices, coming under pressure to cut in a company with the fat already peeled back to the bone. What does he do to distract attention - he gets more and more hysterical and wants to finally destroy the former state asset, Aer Lingus by buying it up to sell it off. He wants to be the monopoly he said he was going into business to prevent. O'Leary calls for "board members -- with a few notable exceptions -- to be 'taken out and shot' describing them as 'useless'." He is focusing in his Sunday Independent interview on trade unions and their representatives - this is the boss who says he can deal with trade unions - he will start by shooting them. Now he want to sell off CIE and the ESB to himself and his rich pals at knock-down prices We need a workers' solution - re-nationalise the lot and take over Ryanair - shoot O'Leary with publicly owned bullets if he resists.

Much has been said over the Lisbon Treaty and the future direction of Europe under the heel of the emerging “European Soviet” (Reference to the EU by M. Gorbachev, London 2001). Yet there is little in the way of real debate on the more informative topics of nationhood, sovereignty and “que bono” (who benefits). This article sets out to stimulate such questions. The text of an informative Lecture called “The State of Individuals” by one of Americas most worthy Political Historians is provided for discussion. read full story / add a comment ![]()

Brian Crowley MEP: With all respect, Mr. President, you will not tell me what the Irish think. As an Irishman, I know it best. President Vaclav Klaus: I do not speculate about what the Irish think. I state the only measurable data which were proved by the referendum... ... If Mr. Crowley speaks of an insult to the Irish people, then I must say that the biggest insult to the Irish people is not to accept the result of the Irish referendum. In Ireland I met somebody who represents a majority in his country. You, Mr. Crowley, represent a view which is in minority in Ireland. That is a tangible result of the referendum. read full story / add a comment
