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.

Garland fails to appear in Belfast court

category national | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Thursday December 01, 2005 17:46author by An bata Report this post to the editors

A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Sean Garland, the President of the Workers' Party, after he failed to appear in a Belfast court today to face possible extradition to the US.
He appeared in court on foot of an arrest warrant alleging that he had been involved in counterfeiting large quantities of $100 bills.
He was subsequently released on bail, on the condition that he resided with a friend in Co Down.
Last month his bail was varied to allow him to return home to Navan to undergo medical treatment.

"On April 1st 2006 Sean Garland was unanimously reelected as President of The Workers' Party and in a keynote address to the party membership gathered in Dublin he vowed to fight all and any attempt to extradite him to the United States."

Did this re-election take place or has someone planted yet another piece f false information in Wiki? The WP would hardly elect a seriously ill man in his 80s as their leader.

'MACAU, China (CNN) -- The Chinese enclave of Macau is known for its gambling, sex trade and Chinese gangsters, with intrigue and shady deals long part of its landscape.But now the former Portuguese colony is at the center of an aggressive and expanding campaign targeting illicit activities by North Korea, which has long used this territory as a base of operations...

As the charges made their way through the courts, the U.S. investigation led to the battle-scarred streets of Northern Ireland. The U.S. Justice Department indicted a long-time senior figure in the IRA, Sean Garland, on charges of distributing North Korean-made supernotes. "He was tied to several KGB operatives as well as to North Korean intelligence agents who were providing the notes that he was then distributing throughout Europe and Eastern Europe," said Asher.'

The latest on the Sean Garland saga you can read more about it at CNN. Hell, I've even provided the URL for you!

'Another intriguing piece in the North Korean counterfeit supernote puzzle came in October 2005 when U.S. prosecutors indicted Sean Garland, a member of Ireland’s radical left, for procuring supernotes directly from North Korean officials.[10] Garland’s connections in China had long been a focus of U.S. criminal surveillance. According to “top secret” U.S. intelligence reporting, reportedly based on telecommunications intercepts by the National Security Agency, Garland may have been introduced to his North Korean contact in 1997 by a Chinese Communist Party official, Ms. Cai Xiaobing, while visiting Beijing. Ms. Cao was identified as director of the International Liaison Department, the bureau within the Chinese Communist Party structure that supports communist parties abroad. U.S. intelligence analysts reportedly believe that the "unidentified business opportunities" that Garland discussed with Ms. Cao related to North Korea.[11]'

but he won't be able to hide, not from US justice.

Gone are the good old days when republicans could hide in the Republic safe from Northern courts, not after 9/11
