"When the People fear the Government, you have
TYRANNY. When the Government fear the People, you have
LIBERTY". (Quote attributed to former
US
President Thomas
Jefferson.)
"Even more
frightening of course is the way our
garda (police) appear to be actually
HELPING Shell Oil to commit such a
pernicious form of crime: despite all the
negative things that the
United
Nations (and others) have to say on this
very
threatening
subject."
"According to
Wikipedia
(for example),
'In the international law of human rights,
it (i.e. 'impunity')
refers to the failure to bring
perpetrators of human rights violations to justice and, as
such, itself constitutes a denial of the victims' right to
justice and redress' -- taken from

Article 10.1 (Constitution
of Republic of Ireland)by Raymond

Whatever about Article
9,
Article 10.1 of Bunreacht na hEireann seems much
more direct and much more relevant to
me.
Article 10.1 (according to text
at
http://www.taoiseach.gov.ie/upload/static/256.htm
) states:
"All natural resources,
including the air and all forms of potential energy, within
the jurisdiction of the Parliament and Government established
by this Constitution and all royalties and
franchises within that jurisdiction belong to the State
subject to all estates and interests therein for the time
being lawfully vested in any person or
body." So how come our
oil and gas
reserves off the
Mayo coast which "
belong
to the State" have been given away to
Shell for
nothing apparently (or almost nothing), and that
there are no
royalties
involved?
Which piece of legislation
has allowed that to happen I wonder, and which of our
presidents signed it into law? Is the
law connected with such legislation valid law at all, and if
not (by virtue of it being
unconstitutional
possibly) why is it not being challenged in the
High
Court and/or the
Supreme Court
? ======================
