The EU, psychiatry, the State through the eyes of 'Alive'

The December issue of 'Alive' offers its readers another dose of nasty inaccurate nonsense.

One headline runs 'EU watching you'. It is about EU regulations on wastage of water.  Elsewhere we read that the EU buys journalists.

In another piece there is a wallop at psychiatry. Then the Minister for Education and The Irish Times are denigrated. Having attacked many agencies of State the free sheet then asks readers to avail of the Government-run  scheme, which allows contributors to a charity to claim back tax for the named charity. How can a free sheet newspaper be classified as a charity?

Surely it would be far better for one's health to be watched over by the EU than the editorship of 'Alive'.

RTE viewers, who are watching 'Generation War' on Sunday evenings, will clearly see how beneficial the European Union has been to all its member states.
