all of my first 5143 twitter msgs. some gold some silver some brown bread.
the following contain ideas that are mine. don’t blame the blog.
writing style is cryptic - some posts are part of two way conversations; alas twitter is crap at applying itself to threading.
my blog changes focus from 12/06/2008 ~ that is the plan. http://briangreene.com

Followed by a 1000 strong demonstration march to Our Lady of Lourdes Hospital where the cancer unit ‘dochas’ is facing closure under HSE / Harney cuts. photos follow.

I strongly support the actions taken by the FIF. Irish Fishermen must not be priced out of the sea by fuel taxes & costs nor cheap fish imports. Minister Brendan Smith TD and Minister of State Tony Killeen TD must act fast from Ireland’s perspective & secondly via the EU Maritime Affairs Commissioner & the wider European perspective, too many factors have grouped together on the livelihoods of fishermen & their families, and with out further delay action is demanded on this issue. Brian Greene 04/06/2008 (Howth Harbour).
Federation of Irish Fishermen to Hold Demonstration at Dail Eireann
On Thursday 5th of June 2008, members of the the Federation of Irish Fishermen (FIF) will hold a demonstration outside Leinster House in Kildare Street between 12 noon and 3 pm to highlight the effects that the current high fuel prices and cheap fish imports are having on the fishing industry.
The CEOs of the four main fish producing organisations will be available at this demonstration to give interviews.
Mr Michael Walsh, chairman FIF and CEO Irish South and East Fish Producers Organisation,
Mr Lorcán Ó Cinnéide, CEO Irish Fish Producers Organisation,
Mr Gerard O’Flynn, CEO Irish South and West Fish Producers Organisation
Mr Sean O’Donoghue, CEO Killybegs Fishermens Organisation.
During this demonstration fishing vessels will be tied up in all major fishing ports around the coast.
