The speech of the Member of Parliament Vittorio Sgarbi in the session of the Italian Camera, Meeting no. 331 of Friday 24, April, 2020. Vittorio Sgarbi, denounces the closure of 60% of the businesses for 25,000 COVID-19 Deaths, of which the National Institute of Health says 96.3% died NOT of COVID-19 but of other pathologies.

PS I like the extra touches to the site. well doneVinnie, suggested tweak for saving pageshttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment539482003-11-26T01:26:05+00:00BlackPopeplease make it so that when we save pages the title and the story number automat...please make it so that when we save pages the title and the story number automatically enter the filename line - this makes archiving and checking back on stories of interest that much simpler - if you can get this to work you will be ever known as Vinnie The Wizard, and I'll buy you a pint - can any other reader offer a fairer bribe than that?<br />

<br />
Now Daithi, we only check about 140 times a day for new discussions, now come on!<br />
<br />
I still have a bit of problem with the Events section though. When someone posts a new event, I feel there needs to be a way to get this to people's attention fully. For at least ONE DAY anyhow. At present when someone posts a NEW event I feel it is getting lost in the events calender and is not receiveing a wide readership.<br />
<br />
But I will make my comments on this more specifically and in more detail to the editorial group.<br />
<br />
Good work again.further IMC outreach neededhttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment539822003-11-26T11:39:33+00:00dunkduncancrowley at hotmail dot comsite looks great,

i think its a pity that you have got rid of the satelite image of ireland, i think its v important to be reminded of our place: earth.<br />
<br />
indymedia is more than a website, imc-ie has to expand, inform more of what it is, give them skills to use it, more and more<br />
<br />
is there any plans for a combined screening and workshop? i gave a short imc workhsop last saturday.<br />
<br />
some people were talking of going out to the community garden in ballyfermot, do some gardening, do a feature, <br />
while out there a screening and workshop could be given in the public library. <br />
<br />
anyone interested, perhaps this could be talked about tonight at the public get together?the icon we used is much loved ¿no?http://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment540042003-11-26T13:21:42+00:00iosaf ipsiphi o as ifLovely big "i" for "iosaf" over one island without borders.

I was thinking about it's absence yesterday, and i suppose with the elections many of us can't vote for today, it was really "tactful ·of that bunch over in indymedia...", to hide it for a while...<br />
Could someone in the really "·clever bunch over in indymedia" post the gif/jpg/image of Ireland "I" [for indymedia] as a comment?<br />
I reckon loads of us would like it as a poster.<br />
<br />
I really look forward to seeing what the graphic designers will do, there's loads of ability and talent in Irish print "underground" media [those that get over to Bçn] so come on! get your ideas on these pages...Brilliant!http://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment540482003-11-26T15:33:20+00:00Mr. Author NameIndymedia.ie keeps getting better and better!

<br />
I can't contribute much except suggestions - so here's a few:<br />
<br />
-Bring back the Ireland IMC graphic (even if its shrunken a bit). <br />
<br />
-Put the list of other IMCs back in the left-hand column. They are easier to get at there, easier to use, and there's nothing in the column anyway.<br />
<br />
-Re-arrange the list of 'regions' into alphabetical order - its easier to find the one you want that way.<br />
<br />
-Add an 'email this page to a friend' feature so users can mail a page (or link to a page) to others, directly from this site. This can do wonders for outreach.<br />
<br />
-Add a feature so that users can recommend or vote on a story. Users could then have an option to order stories by the number of votes.<br />
<br />
Its brilliant the way it is, tho!Donate pagehttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment540922003-11-26T20:33:08+00:00Mr. Author NameOh yeah, I forget.

I...Oh yeah, I forget.<br />
<br />

<br />
If there was an easy way to donate to Indymedia.ie it would be brill too.<br />
<br />
Money for hosting, leaflets, promotion, outreach - just think of it.<br />
<br />

<br />
First - is Green text on a Green background (ie commentary and the right headlines) 'colour-blind' friendly? Personally, its a bit hard on my eyes, but I can live with it.<br />
<br />
Second, I was hoping that you would enable limited html or EZboard tags use in stories & comments (even just to be able to use 'img' and 'a href' tags, which would enable external photo-linking - thus saving space on the server). It would also cut out horrible links, which I persoanlly find astethically disgusting.<br />
<br />
Besides that, excellent job.more advicehttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment542082003-11-27T17:25:51+00:00VoltarineWell done on the new look.

Coupla minor points:<br />
<br />
Not sure the EU merits a whole section on its own (future). <br />
Same with Irish Social Forum, not exclusively related to it either.<br />
<br />
More importantly, could the font be a little bigger, or at least give us the option of increasing it.<br />
<br />
Lines between features also would be helpful I think.Bigger fontshttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment542132003-11-27T17:40:25+00:001 of IMCYou can set the fonts bigger by clicking on the "[text size >>]" link at the bot...You can set the fonts bigger by clicking on the "[text size >>]" link at the bottom of every page, beneath the listing of all the worldwide IMCsoutreach list- better indymedia presence in the REAL worldhttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment542172003-11-27T18:00:08+00:00dunkduncancrowley at hotmail dot comyou have existing lists: editorial, vid, tek...

i suggest you make an - outreach- list <br />
and with that we (whoever indymedia is) opens up, allows for new layers to be added to it, evolves in what ever way it could.<br />
<br />
more people should know about and use indymedia. <br />
<br />
i want to work in this area, and am already doing so, but it is essential that it expands.<br />
<br />
it still rocks today though, just could do moreevents on left, past colorcoded, publicity outreachhttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment542302003-11-27T18:35:34+00:00dunkbring back the upcoming events that you had previously on the left
still thin...bring back the upcoming events that you had previously on the left<br />
<br />
still think the posting of an event should go out on newswire, as it is lost (and more so now with new structure) in the events area<br />
<br />
perhaps also a color code, maybe red- to differentiate between past and upcoming events.<br />
maybe im lazy but i think it would help.<br />
<br />
imc- focus more and communicate more re publicising and outreach side of things.<br />
<br />

<br />
are you thinking of implementing any of them<br />
<br />
can you respond to the -public side- of imc<br />
<br />
a good suggestion was made at the ISF, create a ranting section.<br />
<br />
if people go on with the normal, unproducitive, annoying slagging- "your a SWP, bolix" send their post to the rant section.<br />
<br />
this might clear up a lot of the discussions<br />
<br />

I doubt people would stick to a separate ranting section. And it wouldn't cure the trolls, because their whole point is to disrupt things.terryhttp://www.indymedia.ie/article/62380#comment547322003-12-02T19:23:59+00:00dunkpresently the editors clean the site- move stuff they feel goes against the rule...presently the editors clean the site- move stuff they feel goes against the rules of indymedia- this stuff is in a far away part of indymedia-<br />
<br />
so if there was the normal bulshit moaning slagfest, the posts that are not contributing anything positive to the topic but just annoying everybody, i suggest these be moved and a line in red saying something like "posts moved to ranting section" with the link, so that those interested in nothing but slagging could do so without pissing the rest of us off?<br />
<br />
perhaps a trial period could be tried out?
