My intentions were noble, but I underestimated my university workload and haven't had time to do the research I wanted to on Ireland's agriculture industry.
I hope to be back to regular posting soon, but I am a busy bee these days!
The Irish vegan society have some articles up relating to common exploitative practices, as featured on the RTÉ tv staple Ear to The Ground, which is a magazine-style programme on Irish farming (which I can never bring myself to watch, I get too angry!). Also here is Ireland's page on the UN Food and Agriculture website, with statistics from 2009 which sadly show that the murder and exploitation of innocent cattle is this country's largest and most profitable agricultural sector.
As an aside, I was recently in London for a brief trip. There are a million and one resources for vegan London so you don't need a total recap of my trip, but I ate very well and and got to visit the very cool VX, as well as the inSpiral café in Camden!
