Cork city is to introduce transport using a clean fuel, Bio diesel.
I wonder what Mr. Cuffe and the other high profile and loud mouthed Dublin Greens have been doing on this issue or certain other issues such as fighting for more safe and properly constructed cycle lanes and a few more 'pedestrian' streets? Maybe they are too preoccupied by their share prices and the stock market?

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10Do you have anything more to say about bio-diesel, or was that a weak excuse for another attack on Ciaran Cuffe? Don't you think there are already enough articles on that subject without adding another one?
You should have left the comments about Cork up. I can understand how people bear a grudge against that dreary 'City'. (My dublin Citizenship has been confirmed.)
Only took us ten years to cop onto that.Wonder how long it will be before it is taxed like Dino[sarus] diesel??
today's papers in "Spain" showed bathers on the beaches of Cantabria wiping "chapapote" from in between their little toes.
Temperatures are a record (since records began) which is in fact less time than some great grandmothers memories "...my great grand mother told me and I tell ye.... it was a scorcher in 1794...". The foreigners are setting alight to the forests of Catalonia, and the pale pasty almost blue skin is on the beaches. galicia is officilaiy clean, but hey just a few hundred kilometres away chapopote bewteen the piggyes.
Chapapote is something you don't know about in Ireland but is oozery, dinosaur type fuel.
They spoof, avoid answering the question and then they wonder why people refuse to waste their time voting for their 'parties'
None of the useless sods have done anything real about demanding more pedestrianised streets, or cycle lanes to name but a few issues.
They want cheaper insurance for the boy racers. They dont care about pedestrians or cyclists.
All they do is whinge!
What you (Not a Dub - gee proud of yer roots then?) call whinging may possibly be a reluctance to accept the status quo or a desire to change things in favour of our general interests. There is a reason that Cork is known as the rebel county or the People's Republic of Cork. It may also be just whinging but you should be alert to the difference.
But again we get the puerile spot-sqeezing again on Indymedia.
How do you expect this ever to be a credible news channel with a half-assed attempt at a story and even worse comments following it?
Get a life and let the obsession with the SP go.
