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.
The polls of the last three weeks put Labour and Fianna fail in an effective statistical tie. Fine Gael will be absolutley gutted that they have failed to make any discernible headway as the confidence in government evaporates.
Fine Gaels number is easy to attribute squarely to the rating of Enda Kenny (as yesterday’s Indo poll suggests his numbers are not much hotter than Cowens) but they have had many competent performers doughnutting him. They will have to be worrying about the failure to bounce at government’s expense.
I think the SF showing is also very interesting. They are well above their summer 2007 lows.
The poll suggests that the electorate are breaking down along public-private-sector lines. Clearly much of Fianna Fáil’s traditional public-sector base has defected to Labour. The fall in FG support for the second month running suggests that the public-sector element of its support – while less important – has likewise moved into Eamon Gilmore’s column. This makes the consequences for transfers between the 2 Rainbow parties a potential wildcard in the upcoming local/euro elections, and perhaps in the next General Election, should it be called while the phenomenon still pertains.
