We're a week away from the most painful Budget in history thanks largely to the eye-watering cost of lockdown. Yet Baroness Hallett says next time the Government must be ready to go harder and faster. This is insanity.

It's bad enough that all UK TV users are forced to fund the BBC via a TV licence. But it's worse than that, says Charlotte Gill: millions of pounds of taxpayers' money are handed to the corporation via backdoor channels.

World Kindness Day may have passed you by. But it won't have passed by your children, whose school will have been sure to teach that climate action and open borders are essential elements of 'kindness', says Steven Tucker.

The end of accountable elections in Ireland

category national | politics / elections | news report author Tuesday February 03, 2004 19:11author by fuinseog Report this post to the editors

At 11.00 on 4th February, Martin Cullen will launch electronic voting and counting in Ireland. Cullen who is both Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government and Fianna Fáil Director of Elections for the Local Elections, will perform some sort of ritual media ceremony in the Mansion House.

The system being introduced is open to fraud because of the lack of any paper vote trail and the use of non-open source software.
