Despite the cost of building them, the delay in bringing them online, the cost of cleaning up the old ones, the cost of disposing of all the waste so far, the need to invest in carbon capture or at least print up colourful brochures for the next generation on climate change, the general un-Scottishness of a post-nuclear "chernobyl style" disaster UK (most of Scottish people & many Welsh ones too would peel & die) the government of the UK has decided to approve new nuclear power plants. Because of the Scottish thing, their PM AlexSalmond has gone radge & insists not a single nuke will be build the Caledonian side of the border. Nobody remembers the name of the Welsh PM so all attention is on the Taoiseach to say something rousing. read full story / add a comment

Cork. This year, as the case approaches a hearing in the High Court, funds are badly needed and we need more hardy folks to take to the mountains again. read full story / add a comment

This is a short opinion and analysis based in an article written in December 2006 regarding the Press laws introduced by the then Minister for Justice, Michael Mc Dowell. He published a Bill entitled 'The Privacy and Defamation Bill 2006'. http://www.indymedia.ie/article/78780 The Bill did not get legislated for in the form introduced and the 'Defamation 'section was 'shelved'. Last night at the Launch of the Press Council of Ireland, current Justice Minister , Brian Leninhan TD threatened the re-introduction of the defamation section , which had garnered international criticism. read full story / add a comment

I wish through your media outlet to bring attention to a grave injustice being perpetrated against an Irish Citizen by his own government, Noel Maguire is seeking repatriation back to Ireland from an English jail to serve the remainder of his sentence in the country of his birth and to be closer to his family. The refusal by the Irish government in accepting Noel’s application seems to be stripping him of his Irish Citizenship and the civil rights that are associated with it. read full story / add a comment

Another black American is running for President . Cynthia McKinney, a former Democrat from Georgia, was one of only three members of Congress to vote "yes" on a House Resolution in 2005 calling for the immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq. One of her last acts in office was introducing Articles of Impeachment naming George Bush, Dick Cheney and Condoleezza Rice. With thousands of Afro-Americans still refugees in their own country following Hurricane Kathrina three years ago , McKinney is running on a reconstruction programme . She is demanding that the billions currently being spent on war should be used to address " .......the conditions of poverty, racism, and neglect that have existed since America's first Reconstruction Period after the Civil War." read full story / add a comment

A video posted on youtube by members of the Irish Defence Forces- self-styled "Oglaigh na hEireann" - has been removed from by government order. It is believed by some that Willie O'Dea was informed that the video, combined with the clear indication of his mustache, may lead some to believe that the whole 26 county defence forces idea was "a bit gay". In the interest of free speech, the video should be seen, but people of a nervous disposition should be warned, it contains graphic scenes of disco dancing, men in showers, toilets and weight-lifting. read full story / add a comment

Really quite a miscellany of human interest stories this one. Naples is notorious throughout Europe for its rubbish problem, which for many is blamed on the intransigence of the Comora or Napolitan mafia who sabotage every attempt to provide the city with incineration facilities. Over the Christmas the Italian military were sent into the city to clean up mountains of household waste which quite simply has nowhere to go. Today the Italian state has appointed a "garbage czar" to sort it out. Meanwhile the Peoples' Republic of China is to ban plastic bags in an attempt to stop pollution in its land. Very thought provoking. & there is a spat in Italy between a bishop and family members over plans to exhume & display the body of Padre Pio the patron saint of "January blues". read full story / add a comment
