What happened to the rest of the island on that map. Even BBC stopped doin that years ago. What idiot is resposible for disfiguring the nation ?
Given that the cover uses a map which only includes the 'Free State' I think we have to assume that Cooley Environmental and Health Group are pro-partitionist.
This is a very serious subject, and Im not taking it lightly at all about what is happening in Cooley. But that cover will seriously annoy a lot of people on both sides of the border, its actually offensive. A shame that such a serious subject will end up annoying the wrong people. Poorly thought out presentation.
That explains it. PSNI ? Brit collaborator.
The book can be purchased for €7 or £5 including post and packaging by return post from the writer of the article above on receipt of payment (in advance).
Barry, I am not sure what you are talking about - I think "our" Bradley is a different Bradley altogether.
You know, it might have something to do with the fact that scientific data by a particular researcher, university or whatever was available for 26 counties only? like if you had detailed census, they would not include the North as they have a different census and therefore different questions.
Nope Sean its the same one Im afraid.
As for someone telling me to grow up, all they had to was draw the rest of the amp. They didnt have to include census bloody figures from the north. Wasnt hard to do, and would avoid annoying people which that cover will surely do.
All the best with your work anyway Sean.
They could have used the standard two-colour solution .....

This would have acknowledged the de facto partition of jurisdictions while preserving the geographical integrity of the wee isle ....
A far more elegant solution than chopping off the north-eastern corner .....
you would give out to people derailing stories about the north and here you go...
Barry is not derailing the thread, he is probably keeping it going! Symbolism like maps, flags, etc. are genuinely very important to a lot of people.
But to get back to the original topic, how many copies of the report have been printed? did the producers have a distribution plan? How was the report financed?
The subject of the report is not a very cheerful one, so who are the target audience?
Health professionals? - if so are you aiming for national distribution among that group?
Policy makers? - generally these people receive free copies of reports on a continuous basis either from lobbyists who produce such reports, or they would get them free if the reports are financed by statutory bodies. So I'm wondering how well thought out this whole thing is. Is the target audience only being considered now?
Have they sold the second copy yet?
I accept what you say about Mr Bradley, Barry. The fact that the six counties are cut off on the cover of the report does produce an effect like looking at someone with a gap in their front teeth but 'tis there now and it's done. As I already pointed out elsewhere on indymedia at the start of the new year there were approximately 100 copies printed in total. The report is strictly about cancer statistics and not about politics - certainly not about the politics of partition - although I admit the cover gives the impression that it is pregnant with some kind of political symbolism. The report is not specially aimed at doctors or the like. It could be read and understood by a reasonably well-schooled 16 year old, I think.
The url given below will lead you to the original article I wrote about Dr Pringle's report which should give you a clearer idea of what is involved.
