The sweeping House of Commons reforms proposed by Green MP Ellie Chowns are evidence that the Mrs Dutt-Pauker types have moved from Peter Simple's columns into public life. We're in for a bumpy ride, says Sean Walsh.

So much for Labour's pledge to cut energy bills by £300, says David Turver. Under GB Energy, our bills can only go one way, and that is up.

What's the story if he pays this now? Will he get released?
He should not pay the 300 euro for this trumped up charge. Anyway they intend to continue to harass him whenever he is released.
There should be a proper independent investigation of this harassment campaign, the gardai and judiciary have shown themselves to be grossly unfair in their handling of this matter. Its a bit like some out-of-control sheriff and judge in a one-horse town in the 'Old West'.
They must be made accountable for the perpetuation of this absurd situation.
Owen vitally needs our continued support. He sits in there alone.
Write to him at:-
Owen Rice,
Prisoner of conscience,
D-Wing, Limerick Prison,
Mulgrave Street,
Limerick.
"Send a card if you don't have time to get a letter together. Our solidarity is essential, and the simple act of writing a letter is a serious contribution to keeping his spirits high."
Fintan Lane (former prisoner of conscience)
Funds, of course, are badly needed for Owen's defence as well. Should you wish to contribute, no matter how small, please send something to the below account:-
A/c No. 50400007
Sort: 98-60-20
Ulster Bank, 95 O'Connell St., Limerick
If you need futher information please contact former Army Commandant, Ed Horgan on 086 2380911
Or email me at michaeloconnell2001@yahoo.com
Let's not leave this draconian judicial and police system beat Owen, and consequently, us, around.
Thank you.
bobby sands he aint.......
To my knowledge Eoin is quite different to Bobby Sands and no one on this thread brought up the comparison except you ---Eoin is being vicitimised for his beliefs...... Bobby Sands was a young idealogical man who was also victimised by the state for his beliefs - the message and struggle they each particpated in may differ but each and every activist victimised because of their opposition to wrongs should be respected by all.
Would you do what Eoin is doing ? or are you content to sit and contribute sarky comments from a computer which keeps you sitting on yer arse?
Perhaps you were too lazy (or too thick?) to have read the reason outlined here:
http://www.indymedia.ie/newswire.php?story_id=63697&condense_comments=false#comment64148
Looks like Eoin has had enough of prison, he's decided to be a good boy and toe the line of the Fascist Collaborationist Irish State.
O where o where are all the heroes gone?
I will keep a place in heaven for owen.
