When politicians claim the public supports extreme measures like banning meat or digital ID you can be sure that behind it is a Citizens' Assembly or other dubious method for manufacturing 'consent', says Alex Klaushofer.

Whose tweet has real power!

Is it tweet or twitter? Bear in mind it could also be evidence?

Article that could have very serious repercussions in Ireland.

Derek Scally- Berlin article in the Irish Times March 3rd 2010

The Germans are challenging an EU directive on data retention 'after a law governing its implementation was dismissed as an unconstitutional intrusion"

Where do the Irish people stand? Have they an opinion about this?

Back in 2008 German law required telecommunications companies to retain the data for six months of all citizens' relating to telephone and internet data as called for in an EU directive 2006. This same directive surely must apply to Ireland.

In Germany 35,000 citizens challenged this and the Judges of Germany's Constitutional Courts 'threw out the law yesterday and forced the Government lawyers back to the drawing board'. It goes on to ensure that all data collected to date must be deleted as ruled by the Judges and any further retention awaits the new law conforming to the constitution.

This surely needs urgent regard!
