		30 July 2006: The Green Party in Northern Ireland is calling on the leaders of the main political parties here to cancel all engagements with NIO Ministers for one week, in protest at the failure of the British Labour Party to use its influence to end the terror tactics of Israel.

		I am not a supporter of any of the political parties in Leinster House, but I wasn't appalled by anyone's presence, as I'm aware that this is a crisis that goes beyond party politics in Ireland and I applaud anyone that condemns Israel's outrageous attacks on the Lebanese and Palestinian people.
