@DavQuinn Ah jaysus…..

@DavQuinn The issue isn’t lobbying per se the issue is being able to resist it. That was a lot more difficult back in the day when the Church was given special status in the Constitution. How would we react today if an NGO was given similar status?

Stood at this bus stop in Rathmines 100s of times and never noticed this manhole cover

@OdohertyI64991 The only thing worse than being talked about is not being talked about!

@downgerd @markhumphrys Precision carpet bombing, whatever works I suppose!

@News_Letter They were afraid of being treated as they had treated others!

@Exitoverhere Apparently the British never use the term 'Irish Republic' in official correspondence because that's the term used in the Declaration of Independence.

Ruairí Ó Brádaigh whilst canvassing for Fermanagh/South Tyrone in 1966, running as an independent Irish Republican candidate he outlines the futility of taking a seat in the Westminster, throughout his life he never wavered from the ultimate goal of full separation from Britain.

Israel's war in Gaza is absolutely a genocide. Israelis have been the aggressor for nearly a century.

@OdohertyI64991 Isn’t the Uzi an Israeli design?

[National 1916 Commemoration Committee @1916Committee]

@Alan__Shatter Since the IDF seized it perhaps ask them to detail what was taken but, of course, you won't.

[National 1916 Commemoration Committee @1916Committee]

@OdohertyI64991 But he’s talking bullshit and we’ll you know it! That’s why you introduce the straw man.

[National 1916 Commemoration Committee @1916Committee]

@DavQuinn Like your ‘ hard questions’ on the Israeli genocide against the Palestinians?

[National 1916 Commemoration Committee @1916Committee]

@OdohertyI64991 God’s chosen is pretty fundamental I would have thought? Certainly food for a dangerous psychosis!

@newryarmaghsf @1973Bhoy The problem with ‘not a criminal’ tag and SF is this: they signed an agreement which recognises Thatcher as the hunger striker’s lawful gaoler! You can’t have it both ways.

Pearse as Teacher

Through Scoil Éanna, he sought to create distinctly Irish education rooted in mythology, history, poetry & national identity. Figures such as Cú Chulainn became central to his teaching philosophy, symbolising courage, sacrifice and idea of a heroic Irish past.

@MaryLouMcDonald @wolfetones It’s the British, of course they can deny it. Home Rule anyone?
