How apparent was it in in the Dail? A constitutional referendum on the recently debated (use the term advisedly) Criminal law (sexual offences) Bill 2006, has produced more controversy in Dail Eireann today. Mr Ahern has stated that there may (after an all-party committee) hearing on all aspects of the law , including the constitutional implications, which may lead to a referendum to drop the 'honest mistake' defence and a referendum would ensure that in effect we would be returned to the 1935 act. ... read full story / add a comment

The story of how Gerry Adams tried to turn an eighty year old revolutionary movement into a British Constitutional party. How he broke the Sinn Féin constitution, created fake cumainn to give him fake votes and barred life long republicans from voting. How he managed to expel himself and his supporters from Sinn Féin membership. And, how a small band of republicans managed to keep the Sinn Féin constitution and traditional policy in tact. ... read full story / add a comment

It has long been observed et cetera.., As your national poet & someone who has read Chomsky's tarot cards, I want to move the Irish cultural narrative beyond the Othello quotation frenzy of C.J. Haughey's state funeral & draw your attention to the European Day of Action yesterday to close migrant internment camps. This is where our 25 states send mostly Africans & Moors so we don't see thier desperation. The title of this edition of The Sunday Papers is a play on nomencliture being both a simultanteous play on the name of Oscar Wilde's father Sir William Wilde and Alderman Dr William Shakespeare H.dip.Ed. F.R.C.S.I., M.B.E., gather round! for the first time since the "exodus edition" of the Sunday Papers, iosaf is going to tell you a story. ... read full story / add a comment

A search, for the period May 2006 to June 2006, using the term "Iraq US troop" found that the number of US military casualties was reported 8 times in less than two months, only one of these reports compared these figures with Iraqi fatalities. ... read full story / add a comment

A picture of awesome indecency is about to hit news-stands across Europe today. Big Swinging Mickey Mc Dowell & the Mammy Harney having a snog on the Irish Independent. Thats thier way of portraying a united party after Michael tried like many before to belt in the girth of Harney's ambition. The party that gave us FF coalition governments and put the squeeky clean into FF slime. The worst ministers of Justice & Health in the history of the state. At the same time we hear of FF backbenchers marching on Bertie's office to demand their concerns be addressed...( all of a sudden they have concerns... ) That means they've started worrying about thier seats facing the implosion of the next general election. ... read full story / add a comment |
