@gemmacaddell86 Disappointed Gem.Spurs supporter since Danny Blanchflower(from E Belfast) was captain

[john mcfaul @john_mcfaul]

Ludicrous

[Choyaa @Choyaa13]

I thought this was a joke until I looked it up. I fully support promoting Ulster Scots culture, but calling it a language is ridiculous, and passing off the below as legitimate will rightly be ridiculed. Paying someone circa £90k to push this nonsense perfectly sums up the farce.

Before that it was a dance hall.

[john mcfaul @john_mcfaul]

Brilliant!

[Gem @gemmacaddell86]

He’s lost the absolute run of himself

No Irish dancing?? 🤣 I was learning Irish dancing in loyalist east Belfast before he was even born!! Get to fuck with this nonsense, biggest asset to convincing the statue quo ppl to vote for a United Ireland than any Republican

Trump's win shows us who we really are: This article by professor Aaron W. Hughey is one of the most powerful and accurate post-election indictments of America you'll ever read. 😳👇

[Arnold Schwarzenegger @Schwarzenegger]

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians.

I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor.

My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California.

That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people.

Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime.

It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand.

I want to tune out.

But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious.

And I will always be an American before I am a Republican.

That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious.

For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing.

The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better.

It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed!

But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems.

It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful.

We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger.

That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz.

Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us.

And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. https://t.co/eHFZ723I4H

Donald Trump has 4 indictments, 91 felonies, 34 of which he has been convicted of. He violated women, shared our secrets, tried to overthrow the government getting people killed cheated on his taxes and all his wives. What is there to decide?

[Wallace Thompson @wallyt53]

We’re trapped in this country by endless Whataboutery. It’s not only a sport, it’s a curse. Excellent article in today’s Irish News.

About time!

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

The Wealth Tax is being mooted again.

If you woke up tomorrow and there was a 2% Wealth Tax on people with over £10m which raised £30bn a year.

What would you say?

[BladeoftheSun @BladeoftheS]

It was like the artist was unsure whether to cover King Charles in all the blood the British Empire spilled.

Or cover him in the flames of hell.

So he thought ah f*ck it, and did both.

[john mcfaul @john_mcfaul]

With you all the way.

[Mr Books @UlsterEats]

For anyone interested, this is what an almost #GoodFryDayAgreement compliant #UlsterFry looks like.

It has NO mushrooms, NO beans, NO hash browns, NO tomatoes, NO vegetable roll, NO chippy sassidges and definitely NO panckes, chips, toast or black and/or white pudding.

@BelTel @JohnCharlesLave Another good read. Look forward to your column every week.

Re Casement Park. GAA statement
thanks " Gaels" for their support. Who are they referring to? Sounds divisive!

[john mcfaul @john_mcfaul]

Excellent article. Complete hypocrites.

[Eilis O'Hanlon @OHanlonEilis]

There were 81 murders in the North in 1989. The IRA carried out 57 of them. All those victims are being asked to let go of the past. When it comes to the 1989 murder of Pat Finucane, Sinn Fein demands justice & accountability. Hypocrisy is the only word. https://t.co/Huy7qpL1fg
