IFA President John Dillon said today's convoy to Government Buildings could easily have numbered 5,000 based on the high level of support farmers had been shown. They agreed to restrict it to 300 vehicles to avoid further inconvenience. "I could have had 30,000 farmers and 5,000 tractors in Dublin because of the level of frustration and anger out there," he said. read full story / add a comment

Christmas is well and truly upon us as we get set for the showers of food, gifts and relaxation time that most of us will enjoy over the coming week or so. After all the hype and stressful shopping of the past few weeks, it will come as a welcome relief to finally sit down and enjoy the days ahead. And so we should – it’s rare in these days of rushing and running around that we find the time for the important things in life like sharing quality home cooked food with our families and loved ones. This is what Christmas should be all about, Christian or otherwise, taking time out to reflect, to give thanks and to ponder the past, present and future. read full story / add a comment

A protest against an international privitisation conference at Dublin's Burlington hotel turned violent when the Gardai (Irish police) attacked protesters with batons. They were aided by a number of non uniformed men armed with sticks and torches, some of who may have been political police (Special Branch) but others appeared to be private security.

This was a declaration posted to the papers of the world in 1992. Most papers ignored it then and still do. Most Governments have ignored it. The IRISH government have certainly ignored it. Let's fight against Nice, for women's equality, for an end to war,racism and corruption and let's not forget that the earth is being MURDERED (not killed but murdered) as we talk, meet and make plans. Corporations and governments are surely complicit and largely to blame. But so are we. We are 'the west', we are the rampant consumers. How many of us eat meat, recycle, cut down on oil and gas, use less paper - all basic but difficult stuff - but all very relevant. EARTH GET SICK - WE GET SICK. EARTH DIES, WE DIE. read full story / add a comment
