It's time Europe stopped bending over to this type of political pressure from immigrant populations. If I moved to another country, I wouldn't have the severe audacity to impinge MY culture on theirs. This is a disgrceful act by Dermot Ahern.

Published (2010-01-05 14:05:00)
In today's Indo Kevin Myers has suggested that the reaction against Ursula Halligan's original report of Brian Lenihan's illness amounts to a "hate-filled, ignorant, hysterical lynching of TV3''. He says the media had a "duty'' to report the illness. http://www.independent.ie/opinion/co...s-1998938.html

It happens because Ireland has woefully inadequate legislation on this and numerous other modern contentious judicial issues. Perhaps they went to press before the paper knew it could legally name him?
