John Connors urges the Travelling community to cease violence and reconnect with faith.
Google Maps A north London pub has said it is being unfairly targeted after residents called for police to shut it down over complaints of violence and vandalism. The North Eight pub on Hornsey High Street, Haringey, had its licence revoked in August, but it has been allowed to stay open after its owners appealed the decision. Since then, locals say anti-social behaviour has continued, with police called to fights outside the pub on 30 August and 8 September.
A salesman from the Travelling Community who was left "disheartened" and quit after he said he overheard the managing director of his new job making remarks about "p*keys" and "t**kers" has secured €7,500 in compensation for discrimination in the workplace. The Workplace Relations Commission (WRC) made the award to the worker, Raymond Nevin, after finding that there was a "culture and tolerance" of the use of such "derogatory terminology" towards Travellers at CPF (Profiles) Ltd in Longford.
