The sweeping House of Commons reforms proposed by Green MP Ellie Chowns are evidence that the Mrs Dutt-Pauker types have moved from Peter Simple's columns into public life. We're in for a bumpy ride, says Sean Walsh.

So much for Labour's pledge to cut energy bills by Ł300, says David Turver. Under GB Energy, our bills can only go one way, and that is up.

"When Michael Dwyer was shot by Bolivian Special Forces in a Santa Cruz hotel room in April 2009 he was part of one such scheme by the ruling elite to trigger a civil war"
Do you have any proof for this? Do you know the current 'ruling elite' is the MAS party (Movement for Socialism) and Evo Morales with his 'Union of Coca (cocaine producing leaf) Growers? The people you refer to are the former ruling elite.
You call Eduardo Rozsa Flores a 'Croatian-Bolivian fascist'.
This is not correct. He was fully Bolivian by parentage and birth and I have not seen any proof that he was a 'fascist'. Do you allege that factually or is it just a term of abuse? His website if full of concern for oppressed peoples like the Palestinians and Chechnyans and there is no mention of any 'fascist' party.
It's unfortunate that you see the world in such 'us and them' terms and that this has made you portray the whole Erris episode in a simplistic manner - part of a global simplistic 'Fascist V Socialist' struggle. The world is not simple even if your political viewpoint is. This article you present as fact and political analysis is full of conjecture, inaccuracy and your own personal warped opinions.
His nationality & his fascism :-
Eduardo Rózsa-Flores (March 31, 1960, Santa Cruz de la Sierra, Bolivia – April 16, 2009) was a Bolivian-Hungarian soldier, journalist, actor, secret agent, mercenary poet and self publicist. In Hungary, he was known as Rózsa-Flores Eduardo or Rózsa György Eduardo. His wartime nickname in the War in Croatia was Chico, which is also the title of a feature film about him. He was a founding member of the Hungarian Jewish Cultural Association, an Opus Dei member, the editor of the neo-fascist Jobbik.net http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/politics/article6...2.ece
http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article191103...3.ece
and Vice-President of the Hungarian Islamic Community. http://hvg.hu/vilag/20090417_boliviai_elnok_merenylet_m....aspx
The man is now very well documented - simply go to wikipedia & read about him.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eduardo_R%C3%B3zsa-Flores
& a bonus extra for pedants & know it alls! Today you can learn how to pronounce the name of the new president of the EU before even RTE get it right. & what humdinger it is too. For the final dipthong in the name Herman van Rompuy does not exist in either English or Gaeilge. Your little tonsils and uvula will be well worked to get it right. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Media:Pronunciation-Herman...y.ogg
What is simple Bazooka Joe is that IRMS, a private security company has admitted 50% of their recruits are from Eastern Europe and are vetted by IRMS. The fact that they are not vetted by the Irish Government ( Fianna Fail) means that IRMS is a law unto itself.
The abuse that this company has imposed on innocent Irish people is a total disgrace and needs to be investigated. The problem is that while Fianna Fail are in power this will not happen.

"You call Eduardo Rozsa Flores a 'Croatian-Bolivian fascist'.
This is not correct"
- I'll just take the first part : "Croatian-Bolivian". He was Bolivian by birth, but if you read the wikipedia link above you will notice this section:
"Croatian president Franjo Tuđman personally granted him Croatian citizenship in appreciation of his services. "
You imply that the author holds a worldview which boils down to a global "'Fascist V Socialist' struggle".
All this suggests is that you need to learn about something called "class-struggle"
I've looked up the Wikipedia entry and conclude that Eduardo Rózsa-Flores, with his clutter of diverse and contradictory enthusiasms, was one helluva mixed up fruitcake. I just don't figure how Hungarian Jews or Opus Dei could have taken him seriously. He must have had a persuasive patter, like that of a door to door insurance salesman. He could have sold the Eiffel Tower to Chinese scrap merchants.
