We live in an imperfect and complex world but while there is still a serious issue with global poverty, let us acknowledge, that there have been significant advances in poverty reduction, in particular in Asia, in the past quarter century. The proposed reform of the EU sugar market last week is an illustration of the complexity in arriving at solutions that can reconcile conflicting interests among developing countries and the interests of workers in rich countries. read full story / add a comment

By Andrew Cawthorne Sun Jun 26,11:08 AM ET NAIROBI June 26 (Reuters) - Torture is still meted out with impunity in Kenya, particularly by police, said two studies released on Sunday to mark the U.N. world day for torture. Former Kenyan strongman President Daniel arap Moi's security services were notorious for torture in the latter years of his 24-year-old rule that ended in 2002. President Mwai Kibaki came to power vowing better human rights, but the reports showed his record is by no means clean. read full story / add a comment

You might be forgiven for thinking that the election of two women presidents had firmly established respect for the contribution that women can make to Irish public life. A review of the media coverage of Kathy Sinnott makes you realise, sadly, that we have some way to go. You’re left wondering exactly whose interests some newspapers exist to serve because it is unlikely to be the large – if silent – majority of offended readers who are actually very grateful for Kathy Sinnott’s efforts on their behalf. Thankfully, for the thousands of disabled people and their families, who have benefited from Sinnott’s determination, she is sanguine about this. read full story / add a comment

Sinn Fein/IRA have admitted that it shot dead a teenage schoolgirl in Derry 32 years ago and blamed it on the British Army. The admission puts to an end one of the most notorious pieces of Republican propaganda promoted over the past three decades - the the "Brits" murdered a "wee girl" on her way to the shops to buy milk for her mammy. The admission is the harbinger of Sinn Fein/IRA withdrawal from criminal behaviour, it is shoped. read full story / add a comment
