SOS - Save Our Slugger!

May 20, 2005 Northern Ireland's first Euro blog! An excellent new addition to the Northern Irish blogsphere is the EU in Northern Ireland blog. The heat is sure to climb over the next few weeks as first the French and then the Dutch deliver their referenda verdicts on the EU's new constitution (our new SoS Peter Hain was the UK's key negotiator at the constitutional convention). Our money is on a one and possibly two stage coup. It's a good time also to be reading the excellent A Fistful of Euros, and it's offshoot, A few Euros more. Why, thank you! We think Slugger is excellent. Posted by: David Weman at May 21, 2005 10:41 PM Hi David, The ambition of eunireland is certainly not to dethrone or duplicate Slugger. Many of us, who have interests in the EU, felt that there was a need for a website that would centralise news about the EU in NI or news which would have a resonance over here. Given the flow of information on this topic, I did not want to submerge slugger with all these communiques, news and analyses which would have brought Slugger' aficionados to a high level of boredom. Eunireland welcomes all views about the perception of the EU over here and foster constructive debates. Hope to see you there. Posted by: euinni at May 22, 2005 02:27 PM Needless to say that I too find Slugger excellent. Posted by: euinni at May 22, 2005 02:42 PM |
