To the editor,
I wish to draw to your intention what I believe to be an ongoing and extremely dangerous practise, not to mention illegal.

Dear Editor,

I do not support Cllr Michael Crowe's political views and am unlikely to in the near future, but I do support his questioning of City Council funding for the Arts Festival, and not merely because The Saw Doctors were refused use of the festival marquee, which sounds like a classic case of schoolboy peevishness.

Dear Editor,
According to the Road Safety Authority (RSA), over 400 people die on our roads each year. Much of this injury and many of these deaths would not occur if drivers and passengers were adequately restrained by safety belts. Without a seat belt, three out of four people will be killed or seriously injured in a 50 KPH (31.1 MPH) head-on crash.

Dear Editor,

Dear Editor,
Declan Ganley, the leader of Libertas, was in Brussels this week addressing a group of Eurosceptic MEPS.
