(Brussels – 13 March) Striking footage of newborn seal pups on Canadian ice floes was last night (Thur) projected on a building close to where European decision-makers are discussing a ban in the trade of seal products from commercial hunts which was organized by International Fund for Animal Welfare. Here in Ireland ARAN are sorry to report that the Irish government is lame in their support for a complete EU trade ban on seal products from Canada. Next Tuesday March 17 a meeting will take place in Europe that will finally pan out individual EU government positions on the EU ban, so we have literally three days to change John Gormley’s mind, the man whom may hold the power to influence the Irish position for a total ban. An EU trade ban on seal products from Canada would literally mean that they have no market for the seal skins, it’s imperative that we get this ban, just like it were in the 80’s, but John Gormley’s position is that Irish government may not support a total EU trade ban. read full story / add a comment

Besides the draconian and unjust imprisonment of Maura Harrington for the relatively mild offence of slapping a Guard across the face during of the course of a Shell operation in which 20 protestors were injured by Garda acting as Shell's thugs and battering ram in forcing a path for a digger and which none of them have been brought to book, it was the sinister decision of Judge Devins for Maura Harrington to be psychiatrically assessed that drew the most condemnation and fire, notably Senator David Norris who described it as "terribly, terribly, dangerous.” read full story / add a comment

Last night at the Lab on Foley Street there was a good turn out of artists, political activists and interested individuals for a discussion around the notion of amateurism. It was billed that “four artists and designers would describe their various relationships to 'Amateurism' - DIY art and technology production, designing with found materials, and design in the developing world”. read full story / add a comment

Maura Harrington's husband Naoise is not allowed to visit her every day while she is locked up in Mountjoy Prison. He is instead remaining outside the gates of the jail and teling passers-by what is happening between the visits he is allowed. Many cars are beeping as they go by and many people are stopping to take leaflets and chat. He will be there until at least 6PM today. read full story / add a comment

A call for Internment Eoghan Harris worked himself into a ball as he bounced up and down in Seanad Eireann the other night. The reason for this noisy outburst was the killing of two British soldiers and one member of the P.S.N.I. last weekend. Before he actually said the word Internment, he led the listeners up this point by repeatedly referring to Internment as ‘The I word‘. In Ireland, the word Internment evokes painful memories in generations of Irish people North and South of the border. The very mention of the word Internment carries an absolute loathing with it. Certain negative words can have this effect on people because of the fearful emotions associated with it. read full story / add a comment

The Societies Guild at UCC has twice rejected applications to set up a pro-choice society on campus on the spurious grounds that this issue is already covered by other groups - including in their first rejection the ludicrous suggestion that this was done by the anti-choice "Students for Life". read full story / add a comment

I just received a text from Niall Harnett saying that he just managed to walk and doctors are reasonably happy that no serious damage has be done to his back and neck. He has soft tissue trauma to the upper back and neck. He may be released tonight. A hospitalised S2S man had his prosecution case thrown out today despite fax from hospital explaining that he was unable to attend court. read full story / add a comment
