When Ben Pile moved into a new house he got a nasty surprise. It had a prepayment meter that was about to run out of credit. Fixing this proved to be absurdly hard, which, presumably, is just what the green lobby wants.

A small band of fringe nationalists decided to stop the Love Ulster parade. There is no question but that crowd of loyalists are sectarian bigots. During a protest against the release of republican prisoners as part of the Good Friday agreement, their leader, Willie Frazer, was asked about loyalist murder gang prisoners. “They should never have been locked up in the first place,” he replied. read full story / add a comment

As mainstream media and unrepresentative governments narrow the scope and range of social discourse, the public network has exploded with millions of ‘voices’ that continue the public discourse in a social space conveniently created by the forces that fear free expression most. The blogosphere is without competition as the primary body of free speech in today’s digital age. It is not unexpected that the content and character of independent speech is in contrast and opposition to the mainstream discourse of minority interests. It would seem that attempts to limit and tailor the social debate have resulted in unexpected consequences. read full story / add a comment

This is just a brilliant analysis on how Sistani is portrayed in western media. As somebody who has been swallowing the western media propaganda on the distinction between Sistani the quietist and the Iranian revolutionary style ayatollahs, this essays blows the supposed difference out of the water. It does make you wonder is the media (outside of a few honourable exceptions) deliberately simplistic or truly ignorant read full story / add a comment

Veteran broadcaster Dunphy blasts misuse of Dáil privilege over Frank Connolly affair , speaks passionately in favour of the Rossport Five in this Daily Ireland interview and slams the profession that he is involved in: The Media!
I know he is never consistent but some of the quotes here are classics, angry and on the money.

“We live in a corrupt society, and the corrupt people are not going to go to the barricades to save Frank Connolly."

“It has not changed for the better, no. Journalism now in Ireland is much weaker than it was when I began, which is now 27 years ago. It does not have the crusading zeal that it had. It’s much more interested in celebrity, style and stories about people’s personal lives."

The Bloody Shoe Shines

RTE distorts the level of deaths inflicted upon ordinary Iraqis. Senator Brendan Daly likens Shannon protestors to Saddam's minions. John Waters okays an illegal war and lays the blame at the feet of the 'perverse' public.

It is not just Bertie Ahern that shines the shoes of those in power. read full story / add a comment

Holyland residents can let out a sigh of relief, as St Patricks day, passed by. Most families evacuated their children out of the Holylands in an effort to preserve the magic of St Patricks day, but those that remained again had to endure the depraved behaviour of our future professionals, middle classes and SDLP voters.

Only 1.2% of the student population is from a poor or working class background, you've only to look at the top range model cars the students of the Holylands drive, to see they're all from money backgrounds, with the bad manners and disassociated aloofness of the snooty rich. read full story / add a comment
