... You would probably fill our largest football stadium 80,000 people who would support that idea, but they would be swamped by those who differ.

Ireland has been a nett contributer for a few years now. We recognise that being a member of a club has costs as well as benefits, one of the costs was the loss of our nacent fishing industry to the Spanish, one of the benefits was a reduction in dependence on the UK and the growth in Europe for...

Commentators in Ireland have a different take on this surprise result.... 1. The election came about because of a botched renewable energy scheme, whereby it became profitable to import woodpellets, burn them in empty buildings and heat the atmosphere , just for grants. The then first minister...

... The laws of physics , chemistry are well understood, the bonding energies and the electro chemical series are long established. So we know how much voltage difference can be achieved between different materials. We know the masses and densities of materials, so it is possible to estimate...

Point 1. Does not disturb me in the least whether the English police or English court system prosecute you, I live in another jurisdiction. But can you not see that there are plenty of law abiding citizens in your country who would be scandalised. Accepting a lowering of public standards of...
