Strategy and action?

I am hoping that the unions that did not take part in the 30 June day of action will come up with a strategy to challenge the government on its attack on public sector pensions otherwise we will be losing this battle as well?

Good for democracy, by Nick Venedi

It is good and healthy that democratic principles of accountability will be adhered to and that those who have acquired a great deal of power in the media will be brought to justice over the NOTW scandal.

Louis Walsh

THhe papers report that Louis Walsh who was falsly accused of sexual assault had considered killing himself after the allegations were made. This would have been a great shame as Louis was of course inocent of the accusation. But something has to be done to protect those who are put in this position.

Occupied island

Cyprus remains the only occupied state within the European union, this is the result of the Turkish occupation 37 years ago. The island remains divided despite efforts to resolve the problem.

The euro

Can the euro survive If the Italian finances go the same way as Gteece and Portugal? It would
Appear that the euro may not survive the additional pressure.

Greek debt crisis

Finance Minister Venizelos reassured the Greek people yeasterday that efforts are being made to ensure that servicing of the huge loan and its cost are being negotiated downwards. It is irresponsible for opposition leade Samaras to keep criticising the governement when he knows fully that he himself would have to take the same if not more drastic measures.
