Dear Editor, When Ireland transposed this Directive into Irish law, it tipped the scales in such a way that it protects civil servants, hinders the public interest, and places a blindfold over the Freedom of Information laws that were already in place. It ignored Section 6(e), which relates to the […]
Dear Editor,
Danish CPR number (Det Centrale Personregister) is a lifelong identification number essential for living, working, and accessing services in Denmark. It serves as a national ID for taxation, banking, healthcare (yellow card), and public authority communication.
It is typically issued when registering residency for over three months. It gives Danes their vote automatically when they reach 18, and others when they get Danish citizenship in real time. It is mandatory to keep one’s permanent address updated.
Dear Editor,
Ireland has between 33,000 and 34,000 registered Non-Governmental Bodies or charities, mostly funded by the Government in one way or another. Along with this, we have a Housing Crisis, despite billions of euros being poured into Social Housing through 438 Registered Approved Housing Bodies and the expensive HAP (Housing Accommodation Scheme).
On a recent trip to Dublin I was mulling over the obsession some politicians nowadays have over changing the names of roads and parks which according to them are not reflective of the Irish Republic. Then I came across the statue of William Smith O’Brien on O’Connell St.
Denmark is one of the most successful countries when it comes to the uptake of cycling. In Copenhagen there are miles of cycling lanes covering the whole city. Cycle lanes are divided by a kerb or marked which ensures the safety of pedestrians and separates the cyclist from motorists.

While the EU gives funding towards Housing as a rule it […]
23/02/26 Dear Editor, We hear a lot about the Local Authority Housing List, but few people ever get to see this list. Data Protection in this case has led to the lack of transparency. So, how transparent can this list be if only a select few see it? To my […]
They say “All politics is local”, in the past it is how politics in Ireland worked. A politician who worked hard for his constituents was sure to have a long political career. But in recent years this does not seem to be the case in the sense that the “Local Interests” (interest of the Irish citizen) seems to be ignored Local Authorities in favour of Big Business, Developers and International Investors. Central Funds are only released following the various EU Directives and Regulations coming from the “EU” and Climate Change which at most times do not make sense from an Irish perspective socially or financially.
Two respected Irish scientists have delivered a blistering critique of how Covid-19 was managed both in Ireland and globally, accusing public health authorities of ignoring science, silencing….
