One pub is closing every day. And Labour's 'banter ban' ? Clause 20 of the Employment Rights Bill ? is only going to make it worse as pubs are left with the escalating bills to cover their legal costs.

The African Union's demand for colonial reparations is an act of cynical opportunism that ignores that slavery was already endemic in Africa, and African kingdoms resisted abolition even as the British forced it on them.

NATO Troops at Shannon

category national | anti-war / imperialism | news report author Saturday June 07, 2008 16:11author by Edward Horgan - PANA, Irish Peace and Neutrality Alliance Report this post to the editors

US/NATO Troops on their way to war

Where is the so-called Tripple Lock protecting Irish neutrality today at Shannon airport as hundreds of troops from the US the principal NATO state, pass through Shannon on their way to and from the unlawful Iraq War?

Irish neutrality cannot be and is not guaranteed by the Lisbon Treaty inspite of assurances to the contrary by Irish Government spokespersons. Proof exists at Shannon every day as hundreds of heavily armed US troops pass through on their way to the Iraq and Afghan wars. The attached photograph was taken at 10am today.
How can we trust our government on Irish neutrality, membership of military alliances, and complicity in unlawful wars, when blatant abuse of Irish neutrality occurrs at Shannon every day.
