So much for Labour's pledge to cut energy bills by £300, says David Turver. Under GB Energy, our bills can only go one way, and that is up.

Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5this bill which was signed by the president is akin to the policys of the aparthied facist state of south Africa of the 1980s. or the Chilean state under pinochet. isnt this what they did to people who opposded their facist government and murder machines.
one has to ask why a bill in the Dail was not passed to freeze the financial assests of the catholic church. to handcuff arch- bishops cardinals religious superiors after the ryan report.
one could name Mansfield, of City West Hotel. with his connections to FF bribing city councillors/politicians about property and land.
Monday 27. RTE religious correspondent .Joe Little. was under covert survellance by the cops in his place of employmet. Little was exposing the Irish political establishment, catholic church denying justice to people who are survivors of child sex abuse.
Protesting at dust gathering buildings like Liberty Hall and the like at the incompetence and hypocrisy of many of the tenants wouldn't be a bad start.......
'Class' is entirely irrelevant to this issue - all concerned citizens should take action against the oppression & corruption that have brought us to a point where the lowest-earners are expected to subsidise the highest, hospital wards are scheduled for closure, & honest people are jailed for legitimate protest.
Fianna Fail controlls every facet of this country,the Gardai , judiciary, media, and all state bodies . their cronies are planted in every nook and cranny over the years of their governance. It is common knowledge that many of their friends in the party have been involved in a variety of criminal activity. All party members claim that they are ignorant of these crimes and plead (due process for their pals that are found to be corrupt. The current minister for injustice is the man that climbed every tree in the country looking for Ray Burke, on behalf of his dear friend Berti Aherne, he pleaded for due process for his friend Burke when the dogs in the street knew that Ray was a criminal. The people of Rossport are still waiting for this due process for Ray and Berty but berties monkey the tree climber will do his best to see that it never comes about.
WHEN CRIMINALS ARE IN POWER THEY WILL NEVER ORDER THE POLICE TO INVESTIGATE THE CRIMES COMMITED BY THEIR FRIENDS. THE FACT THAT THEY CAN MAKE AND PASS NEW LAWS IS AN INDICATION OF JUST HOW SCREWED UP THIS COUNTRY IS.
Most of the party members have some knowledge of little miscrepencies comitted by their fellow members but choose to keep quiet about it. Does this not make them accesories to the crimes?
The ordinary people need to rise up and force these scum out of office.
VOTE NO TO LISBON.
It would do no harm if Fianna Fáil took a measure of the anger abroad in the land and started by firing Ceann Comhairle, John 'Six-figures' O'Donoghue, who has spent the kind of money on trips abroad, en famille, as would purchase a fair-sized house. Novelist Martina Devlin, in her Irish Independent column today, fearlessly says what's what, and shows O'Donoghue as a symbol of what a self-serving mess Irish politics really is. I would expect that other writers would show the same political fervour and call for O'Donoghue's resignation. You won't get it, of course, because to resign takes moral courage, which is not the same as brass neck. Politicians of this ilk MUST go. They have done no good for the time they have spent slurping up our money, to paraphrase Ollie Cromwell. It's the shamelessness of 'Six Figures' that defies all justice, all sense of fair play, and gives the finger yet again to his constituents and the rest of the citizens of Ireland who are being asked to make sacrifices and 'share the pain.' Share the pain and dump Six Figures as an example. To your pens, people! He's in charge of anything artistic, grants and such, any more, so you're safe.
