The UK's minimum wage has hit ?26,500 a year for full time work, an extraordinary level that may seem 'humane' but is having a devastating impact on employment and is dragging the economy down, says Mark Ellse.

The Government boasts it's "saved" Grangemouth oil refinery and "500 jobs". But what about the 320,000 jobs lost since Labour came to power, asks Ben Pile. Subsidies can't prop up forever an economy ravaged by Net Zero.

Lockdown for Queen's Visit

category national | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Saturday May 14, 2011 04:49author by 17/5 Report this post to the editors

Public banned from streets [except for hand-picked toadies]

The Irish Times reports this morning that the public will be completely banned from outside all of the sites to be visited by the queen of England.

"Onlookers will not be accommodated at any of the locations the Queen visits in Dublin, Kildare, Tipperary and Cork, according to Garda sources. The only people to meet her will be hand-picked."

The decision to invite her was ill-judged and shows how out of touch the authorities are. The choice of the 17th of May as her arrival date was also disgustingly insensitive, as it was the date of the largest massacre of the recent "Troubles" and that matter is still unresolved. The British have refused to co-operate with inquiries into that massacre.
The people who had a brainstorm and decided to invite her deserved to be sacked.
