Professor Peter Mitchell of the UCD school of physics , provided today a completetly risible excuse for the media -led campaign on nuclear energy in this country. The campaign has been trundling on at least since Feburary 16th of this year, though it gathered momentum on June 1st with the press release from the Oireachtas Committee on natural resources that the nuclear option is one that we should be examining. According to Mitchell nuclear power generation in Ireland could provide an answer to our offence at and opposition to war. read full story / add a comment

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

Death Without Context In an article search of the Irish Times archive for the period June 2005 to June 2006, the search term "Iraq lancet" gave 3 results, the last of which was printed in December 2005. 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

The recent letter from a reader of the Irish Times crying foul on a political cartoon that appeared in the wake of the late Taoiseach Charles J. Haughey’s death is interesting, because it epitomises the raw emotions that surface in the face of this form of political expression. I must add that I am in no way connected to the cartoonist in question, but that I have had the benefit of media training, and I can understand the nuances that this type of visual journalism can manifest within the reader. Often a cartoonist who has done previous work with a political figure may be signing off on the figure at the time of their death. read full story / add a comment

For three weeks running, Vincent Browne has written at length about Charles Haughey in Village, Browne's weekly current affairs magazine. Defenders of Haughey are not hard to find of course but it’s doubtful that there can be anyone who is so clearly conflicted and contradictory as Browne has been about 'The Boss'. read full story / add a comment

This is the text of a leaflet which has been drawn up by members of the Irish National Teachers Organisation who are opposed to the new pay deal as presented to us for ratification. A version of this leaflet was distributed to approx 500 INTO delegates from all over the country who attended a 'Consultative Conference' on Whole School Evaluation last weekend. Thanks to the generosity of a number of union members a copy of it has also been posted out to most schools in the Dublin area and some around the country. Unfortunately we don't have the €1500 it would cost to send the leaflet to all 3,000 or so primary schools in Ireland. This is not a problem that will face those who favour the deal - the union leadership. They have no problem spending members' money to give the 'pro' side of the argument. If you are a member of the INTO please print off this leaflet and distribute it to your work colleagues. If you would like to contribute financially to sending out the leaflet contact me at the Email address shown. If you're not in the INTO, the information in the leaflet might be of benefit to you in your own union. Please feel free to use it as you will. read full story / add a comment

Yesterday Minister for (Justice) Michael Mc Dowell TD asked Minister for Health, Mary Harney TD to "step aside" as party leader, before the next general election. The possibilities are endless in terms of cliche. One that springs directly to mind is an old Irish favourite: "The Shit before The Shovel". read full story / add a comment

So I read in the Times this column inch about Bertie Ahern meeting a delegation from Iraq in Dublin organised by the IRI, that is all there no other mention of it I can find, ok so diplomatic meetings rarely get much sattention but this is more then that this is 8 MPs from Iraq's newly elected government. Ireland and the UN have brought democracy to Iraq and with all that bads news and 'unwarranted flak' the government has been getting over the Shannon and Bertie doesn' t want to use this opportumity to shout from the rooftops? with those men DEMOCRACY!! not even a photocall, or a told you so! you nitwit. Oh I wish I was one of those journalists you hear about. read full story / add a comment

I got a Hard Rain in recently and it blew me away. It's a photographic exploration of the effects of climate change illustrating Bob Dylan's prophetic lyrics. Everyone should read this book and I don't care where you get it so long as you get a look at it. If any book can shake people out of their complacency, this is the one. Make your libraries buy it, show it to your friends, family and co-workers, show it to everyone you meet every day. Read it and weep. And then do something about it. read full story / add a comment
