Dramatic evidence has been published in a number of recent science papers that CO2 levels are already?'saturated', meaning little or no further warming is to be expected and rising CO2 levels are all beneficial.

It isn't so much that the Tories are getting more popular as that Labour is getting less so. Which illustrates a more general predicament for the Tories and any other party that might have aspirations to government.

Robert Ballagh & IPSC call on Riverdance not to tour Israel

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | news report author Friday April 29, 2011 14:46author by Kev - IPSCauthor email culturalboycott at ipsc dot ie Report this post to the editors

Two Open Letters published

On 26th April two Open Letters were published concerning Riverdance's planned tour of Israel in September 2011. The first is from Irish artist Robert Ballagh who was the set designer for Riverdance, and the second is from Raymond Deane, Cultural Boycott Officer of the Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign.

Extract 1, Robert Ballagh: "Because I have signed up to support the cultural boycott I will not be travelling to Israel with Riverdance ... I believe that this non-violent cultural boycott will contribute to the struggle for justice for the Palestinian people".

Extract 2, IPSC: "Would Riverdance have toured South Africa during the dark years of Apartheid there? If not, then how can its creators and performers justify touring the rogue Israeli state that has devised its own form of Apartheid that in many respects is worse than that once practised in South Africa?"
