If you are thinking of donating to a charity this year you might consider the Kerry Rape Crisis Centre for their support of a victim of sexual assault subject to horrific community bullying in Listowel.

Dan Boyle sheds the green jersey. His Sunday Tribune comments (which only got a weblink late in the day) are noted by Reuters.
Ivor the Driver — full Seanad report. It was nice of Bertie to send Ivor’s letter of appointment to his Cork address.
How ossified is Irish politics? In the blink of an eye, Australia — which had no recession — replaces its Prime Minister.
I’m a victim of unique Irish blame culture, says Harney
Things Ministers don't do part 2: Harney is not really responsible for these clinial fuck-ups. Sure kick her over policy but not failure. Typical Irish begrudgerry.
Well when you put a blond on the ticket….
I wonder did they have to pay extra to have that advertisement put on the same page as the articles about fine gael candidates.
In fairness the ads are mixed in with the fluff pieces all over the place. Fine Gael’s “Whatever happened to politicians taking responsibility for their mistakes?” is next to Peter Power’s article.
And just in case you’re naive enough to take any of it seriously the whole supplement has ADVERTISING PROMOTION written on top of every page. A bit like those wedding promotion supplements you see every now and then.
Doesn’t it sound like they’re having a go at the PDs with the line “beware parties now claiming they gave increases in recent budget”? After all they are only ones in the news claiming anything from the budget. Seems like FF have decided that Tim is toast and they want the seat. And I’ll be honest I would rate their chances much more now that Scully is not on the FG ticket.
Well FF already have 2 seats so they aren’t going to win a third. Also I met Noreen Ryan today canvassing my area and the first thing that struck me is that she is a good 15 years older than the photos on the leaflets and posters. She had makeup plastered on to try and hide it but that just made her look worse. I was concerned about voting for a 22 year old but I’m now more concerned about voting for a 37 year old pretending to be 22.
I think Noreen is older than 37, and don’t tell me she was canvassing when the match was on? FF could win a 3rd if O’Malley was to completely implode. The absence of Scully from the FG ticket in the city is likely to mean that O’Dea will have an enormous surplus.
Nobody here seems to be writing off Peter Power. He has been a lame duck since he got elected and while he has the advantage of being a sitting candidate he doesn’t seem to be utilising it while Noreen seems to be dedicated to winning the seat. Eddie Wade lost his seat to Power last time round and Power doesn’t seem to be pulling out all the stops to hold such a vulnerable seat.
