Since the international water conference in Dublin in 1992, the international community has continued to refuse (institutionally) to recognise the access to water as a human right, i.e. as a universal, impartible and untouchable right. A proposed resolution by Germany & Spain to include water as a universal right through the framework of the UN Human Rights Council in Geneva has been blocked by Canada & the USA. This might be because Canada has lots of H2O as the clean bit of the fluid is called by first worlders once they take out the oestrogen, cryptosporidium, residual heavy metals & artificial colourings. Third worlders have many words for water & don't often worry about the oestrogen, cryptosporidium & heavy metals due to the cholera thing which can sometimes worries them more than the lack of artificial colourings in their water which often gives it a brownish or greyish tint......This is quite normal.......Honestly it is. read full story / add a comment

Maureen Kenny Has died, a true lover of education and books, many will have a memory of the Labyrinthe bookshop, the smell of the books and the friendly family who ran it. You could find yourself tripping into Mr Kenny's office and getting a lecture on dropping out of college, work; and where the bestest poetry books were kept. Many of us miss the old shop with the low ceilings and the carpetted stairs and Maureen always had a smile- did not matter if you were the Laureate or a small writer, everyone was united by love of knowledge and books. read full story / add a comment

Bundoran has the most scenic views of the Donegal Bay, Dartry Mountains of Leitrim and a coastline accessible to everyone. We preserved our old historical buildings and respected our community atmosphere. In the last twelve years Bundoran Town Council has allowed Planning Corruption erode the very HEART of Bundoran and now the greedy developers and certain Corrupt Councillors want to destroy our Foreshore not or enhancement but to built apartment blocks on the most beautiful coastline in Ireland. In the last twelve years the population of Bundoran has decreased now these greedy developers want to destroy Bundorans Sealife. read full story / add a comment

There are already American private health corporations, some of which are mired by healthcare fraud, involved in Harney's co-located private hospitals read full story / add a comment

In this month's 'Irish Art Review', which is available online (it's a tenner a pop in the Newsagents) the editor discusses the current exhibition in Collin's Barracks and asks the question: 'Should not the Irish State give up to 50% of the pieces back, because they are colonial plunder' ? Its brief and I did not bring my copy, thus I cannot quote him verbatim.. The Natural History Museum remains closed since the staircase collapse last year, with rumblings in the media that the Senate will be expanded in there and kids are therefore limited in free access to their heritage, learning and study places. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/76354 read full story / add a comment

We are calling on all folks who are opposed to the wars on Afghanistan and Iraq to make their opposition visible for an hour a week - solo or with friends. To vigil is to stay awake. Our society slumbers as our warships, fighter aircraft, troops and bombers unleash death and destruction on the people of Iraq. The body bags of British, Australian and American troops come home without causing a ripple beyond the immediate families of the deceased. read full story / add a comment

The Independent Workers’ Union urges all Trade Union member’s and Workers to campaign on behalf of a NO VOTE in the forthcoming E.U. Constitution referendum, now known as the ‘Lisbon Treaty’. This Treaty poses a major threat to workers’ and personal freedoms. The I.W.U. and other European Trade Unions are very concerned at the potential annihilation of workers’ rights, pay and conditions by a number of concerning anti-Trade Union/anti-Workers measures contained within the Treaty. read full story / add a comment
