It’s still a hot toxic mess.

But…

The incident commander in charge of the fire at the Oxigen waste recycling plant says the blaze is now contained. Above is heavy machinery removing burning waste from inside the building for fire officers to spray down (top pic) before it’s piled up outside. Alex Maguire (bottom pic) who lives across the road in Ballymount Cottages said that the smell from from the fire was overwhelming.

[Justice Minister Alan Shatter and Garda Commissioner Martin Callinan]

Justice Minister Alan Shatter has decided to call in the Garda Ombudsman Commission in the public interest. The decision has been welcomed by the Garda authorities…
The minister’s move seems likely to end the impasse between the committee and Garda Commissioner Martin Callinan over the possible appearance of one of the whistleblowers, who is a serving member of the force, before the PAC on Thursday….

Good job, lads.
