Don't know if you follow Jane on twitter but based on her RT's it doesn't seem like the tech sector has much business being the moral arbiter of anything.

Is Jane not someone who exposes crappy behavior though? Like the topic she has been monitoring for the past few years, anything on her timeline is going to be based on that narrative?

Sometimes she talks about dogs too.

No, it's not. And for the most part this comes off as opportunistic.
If this cost them actual dollars, they wouldn't be doing it. It's the popular, brand-smart thing to do.

True. Somebody in The Guardian article was on about 'the right side of history' but given that it's only recently they've decided to get on the right side its hard to see it as anything but opportunism.

Oh jesus, those things.

"no whip on matters of conscience" actually seems like a good idea

I don't see what's so good about it. What if you have a conscientious objection to certain economic or agricultural policies?

Looking forward to Lucinda's spoken word

 

[Unicron]

Joe Brolly there too. Someone should use that tent as a way to calibrate their missles

 

[тхеодоре кацзынски]

Not to mention Kitty Holland and Maire Louise O'Donnell. Hopefully there's a fire.

I've no idea who most of those people are. I do like the idea of Haiku and Sushi with Rosenstock-san though.

Lucinda Creighton attacks FG's 'grey men' who told her to 'sit down and stay quiet' - Independent.ie
Lucinda takes a page from Averil Powers playbook.

Unlike the SDs, Renua don't seem to be attracting many viable candidates despite their vow to run in every constituency. Declan Ganley (remember him? I was only missing him last week when I came across a pamphlet of his) made an appearance too, he claims to have no intention of running for the Dail but it wouldn't surprise me if he has somebody lined up to do so.

Has she forgotten that she left over abortion?

Has she forgotten that she left over abortion?

Seemingly she found she actually had a conscience, similar to A.P.

On the abortion issue and the pair in question, according to The Phoenix magazine of June 5th the two stood on the opposite side of the debate back in 2002 with Averil "...accused of behaving like an FF hack by trying to undermine the union's* democratically determined position on abortion. Ironically it was Lucinda Creighton, then a liberal on this question, who led the charge against Averil"

Political expediency or a genuine change of heart?

*TCD Students Union, A.P. was president of it at the time.

Renua candidate steps down after labelling Vatican ‘the Antichrist’

They'll have no-one left by the time the election comes round.

of the people yesterday;s Sunday Independent asked "the great and the good to nominate their favourite reads of 2015." and lucinda creighton was on of those they asked

In particular, I am anticipating reading Gene Kerrigan’s The Scrap (Transworld Publishers Ireland, €20.99) about 1916, AA Gill’s Pour me a Life (Orion Publishing Company, €29.50) and Village of Secrets: Defying the Nazis in Vichy France (Caroline Moorehead, Chatto & Windus, €29.50/€15.80).

I also hope to read The Churchill Factor (Boris Johnson, Hodder & Stoughton, €37.50/€15.80); it might give me some inspiration.

ah spoken like a true politician, not what she has done but what she intends to do, which when it comes to politics are very different

All teh odder considering she (Lucinda) bailed over the abortion issue

She doesn't wanna go too far to the lunatic fringe I suppose. You'll get a guaranteed cohort of votes but they'll be tiny in number.
