Something seriously wrong with this country....what's the point of this so called economic success....if it isn't benefitting the ordinary person and only making the establishment richer??



Nothing works in this dump,our health service is consistently on brink of collaspe,we can't house our own and have resorted to handing out tents to assulm seekers and not allowing em be pitched anywhere,our youth are emigrating enmass and have nothing to return to,our defence service are a shambles,our rivers and lakes are polluted and destroyed........if this is success,what does failing our people, look like for the establishment??

[Setanta]

He's not everyone cup of tea (I think he's good to sow it into the establishment and PC brigade though!)......but Paul Murphy absolutely laid waste to the establishments here rethoric and dogma surrounding attempts to piss away Irish neutrality


From the family and carer referendums to openly wanting to conscript our youth into a euro army,to do god knows what for Von Der Lyon,they've told such lies,we need to root out these cunts from ruling our country

The establishment media here working to coverup the collapse of law and order here,by utterly being silent on this

2nd military coup in Bolivia in 5 years has failed.....the CIA is failing in its main function,a bad day for US forgien interests

[Setanta]

Dublin will be burning tonight,time for the ex-ruc man over the gaurds to go,and take his government with him


The parade in Newcastle,the weekend could be attended by special branch and harass participants, it's grate to see free state tear itself asunder,but those who pull the strings on these riots aren't ever touched,which says alot to me anyway

It's grate to see chickens come home to roost,on the country and economy the establishment has built here

The left have commited themselves to no community engagement and ruling from on high and imposing the establishment will onto the country


To who's benefit is this.....they are determined to smash the last bit of community space for the free state,they've been too emboldened by the centaury events and the inability to make them work effectively

Leftists accusing others of election fraud,when they don't get their way.....yanks are ever the same,guess they'll try and bring their arrogant version of democracy to Venezuela,same like Iraq.....how many millions will die for the idiocy this time

Yeah the USA is really in a position to tell others about election fraud and how it should all be transparent etc..

We all know why they want in to Venezuela and it has f-all to do with democracy or votes or transparency!

Police kill Irish man in Malta

https://www.breakingnews.ie/world/irish ... 60259.html



All joking aside,when you look into it,Ireland has a worrying enough level of lads killing their partner/ex's and remember seeing Marie Cassidy commenting on the absurdly high level of family murder/suicides here

Which the establishment does little or nothing to try and sort out,and silences anyone who speaks out on it

Boat loads of migrants drown every day in the Mediterranean and the left works to cover it.....a luxury yacht geos down and it's headline news..... hopefully they rescue (or recover) the rest of them,but surely noone can doubt how biased the left and main stream media are nowadays

Watch now,as nothing will happen, otherwise the left will have to face down likes of ryanair and their ticket sales stragedy aswell



Whom will the establishment support.....the rich,mega corporation's or the ordinary man on the street

Bad day for leftists everywhere....they've spent years screaming this money wasn't Ireland's and that apple shouldn't have to pay it.....using taxpayers money to fund apple's defence here was pure wrong,and whomever signed off on this,should resign

[Boardsie Exile]

The government's worst nightmare has come true. We're about to find out how many of these companies are here exclusively for the tax breaks based on how many make a dash for the exit.

Also, considering that the last 30+ years have seen almost unrelenting positivity towards the EU from Irish media, I'll be most interested to see how they roll with this. Particularly RTE.

The only thing is,afaik,it was a one-off deal for apple


The absolute state of people who for years said we shouldn't collect this,and bend the knee to yet another mega corporation.....spending tens of millions of tax,to fight a legal battle for a company with billions sitting in the bank,while our own are expected to go without,pretty much sums up the establishment here imo

Some blaggarding by the government....this bag of cow dung,was a sandwich bag

The efforts the establishment go to,to impose their agenda and leverage any defiance into criminal proceedings is incredible,that ould vat rebate for the media is paying huge dividends now in the reporting of this

No fear the establishment and left in free state have a word to say on this.....plenty to say on wolfe tones at electric picnic playing songs though

Watch how the government will change the law to suit the ultra rich establishment in the budget....but do zero to improve public services,zero of which work effectively


The left are a joke in this country

Look the guy that ran that company is a prime example of the modern idiots that now pass for modern leaders, be it political, social and indeed industrial world.

Carbon fibre is not capable of withstanding the pressures but no he knew better than everyone else.
Who were these scientists and engineers to tell him.
Mankind (couldn't care less it is now a sexist term or something) learned valuable lessons from experience of others.
You could call it the learned experience of mankind or some snazzy term.

It is how we progressed as a species.

But nowadays you have clowns that reckon they are better, that science, engineering, biology are just so old hat.

Another prime example of this is how Elizabeth Holmes pulled the wool over so many people's eyes.
People like Murdoch who think they know everything.
Anyone with a modicum of scientific biological or medial background would have known she could never do the tests she claimed on adrop of blood from the tip of someones finger.

But no the wise ones thought that a twenty something year old girl that had done less than a year of college, never mind scientific research could buck the science.

Only good thing about whole story was how that old obnoxious pr i c k Murdoch was taken for millions.

From the gutter woke mouthpiece article ...

"The hate speech legislation, intended to penalise abusive or threatening communication that targeted a person due to their race, nationality, ethnicity, gender, disability, religion or sexual orientation, has been the subject of protest by far-right agitators and conspiracy theorists."

Yeah everything not in tune with their woke crapology is far right and conspiracies.
