international / rights, freedoms and repression / press release Saturday May 05, 2007 19:16 by Dorothy Gale
Green Party candidate for Dublin Central Patricia McKenna said that
Ireland had an opportunity to play a leadership role in the fight against
the continuing scandal of hunger in the world. She said it was a disgrace
that the world's poorest had to wait until 2015 for the Irish government
to meet its UN commitment on overseas aid.

McKenna said: "Ireland's history of famine in the 19th century, coupled
with our more recent experiences of poverty and emigration, give us
legitimacy in providing leadership on foreign aid. But Fianna Fail and the
PDs have proven themselves unable to provide that leadership. The last two
governments have shamefully reneged on their aid commitments."

McKenna was commenting as the government announced today that it will
recognise and fund a commemoration of Ireland's Great Famine.

Today's UVF statement, if taken at face value can be given a qualified welcome.

ALLIANCE FOR CHOICE
CALLS ‘D’ CASE
A TRAGEDY WAITING TO HAPPEN

It was only a matter of time before another distressed young woman was forced to remind the Irish people of the disgraceful situation facing women in crisis pregnancies in this country. The HSE’s refusal to permit a young woman in their custody to terminate her non-viable pregnancy is consistent with the hypocrisy exhibited by successive Irish governments who have refused to deal with the issue. It is truly outrageous that this vulnerable young woman should be further traumatised by having to ask the courts for the right to terminate a pregnancy that can, at best, result in the birth of a child with no possibility of life. read full story / add a comment
