Rejoice! For we are at the dawn of a "golden age of nuclear", according to the UK Government. There's just one wrinkle, says Ben Pile. It's reactors for shiny data centres, but unreliable renewables for the rest of us.

Assaults on UCD Students by SecurityGuards

category national | crime and justice | opinion/analysis author Saturday December 13, 2008 13:34author by Lapwing Report this post to the editors

Concern growing with regard to UCD security firm.

There is growing concern among students about the strong arm tactics being used by security guards in University College Dublin.

PULSE Security Management, the security firm "policing" the UCD campus since September, is trained in security techniques by the International Bodyguard Association, an Irish Private Military Company that specialises in special forces type training.

A Testimonial for PULSE by IBA Director General Jim Short reads: "I would have no hesitation in recommending Pulse Security Management as a close protection team. Their teams have undergone intensive training with the IBA and have obtained (sic) a very high standard".

UCD students however observe that: "I've seen them becoming very violent if they are drunkenly taunted" and "There is clearly a lot of animosity being generated, and that tends to encourage, rather than eliminate confrontation. I'm glad students have been complaining at the very least. Like the other guy I've rarely had trouble with campus security, but this new crew just plain reek of dodgy bouncers moonlighting. Something nasty is going to come out of all this."
