Hi Folks,
The Human Rights torch relay hightlighting the fact that China can not have the Olympics witout respecting human rights is coming to Dublin next week, Oct 17.
A Concert is arranged for grafton street and then a run with the torch from there to the Chinese Embassy. It seems to have broad party support, ie Fine Gael, Greens, Fine Fail and independents.

Are any of the readers on politics.ie going to go and support?

Guess this isn't lighting up any members who wish to give the flame alive and burning.

Heavy words are so lightly thrown.
FF and FG are supporting this and at the same time trying to Twin Dublin with Beijing. Hippos
check out the theme song for the Torch Relay. Its catchy
