Nice things, nice places, interesting people, good times, laugh hard.

"Mo Chara’s real problem is that the message he put out landed. Working-class people aren’t meant to speak like this, organise like this, or connect struggles across borders like this. That’s what scares them.

While Mo Chara stands in the dock for allegedly waving a flag, those complicit in a genocide walk the streets untouched. Since October 2023, over 60,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza – entire families erased, journalists targeted, children bombed in their beds.

More than 300 officials at the Foreign Office raised their concerns about Israel’s “stark … disregard for international law”. And yet, the UK government continues to greenlight arms deals and offer diplomatic cover. That’s not a performance. That’s a conscious policy decision. Made in Westminster, paid for by the taxpayer, and buried beneath silence.

They’ve tried this before. Give Ireland Back to the Irish – banned. Christy Moore – detained. The Pogues’ Streets of Sorrow – silenced for decades. And now, it seems to be Mo Chara – for turning protest into poetry, politics into art.

So here’s the question – the same one Pete Seeger asked, the same one Mo Chara asks now: Which side are you on?

KNEECAP STATEMENT:

Since our statements at Coachella — exposing the ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people — we have faced a coordinated smear campaign.

For over a year, we have used our shows to call out the British and Irish governments' complicity in war crimes.

The recent attacks against us, largely emanating from the US, are based on deliberate distortions and falsehoods. We are taking action against several of these malicious efforts.

Let us be absolutely clear.

The reason Kneecap is being targeted is simple — we are telling the truth, and our audience is growing.

Those attacking us want to silence criticism of a mass slaughter. They weaponize false accusations of antisemitism to distract, confuse, and provide cover for genocide.

We do not give a f*ck what religion anyone practices. We know there are massive numbers of Jewish people outraged by this genocide just as we are. What we care about is that governments of the countries we perform in are enabling some of the most horrific crimes of our lifetimes — and we will not stay silent.

No media spin will change this.

Our only concern is the Palestinian people — the 20,000 murdered children and counting.

The young people at our gigs see through the lies.

They stand on the side of humanity and justice.

And that gives us great hope.

Kneecap ❤️

There were once two boys who grew up in the ‘mean streets’ of New York, born one year and a few blocks apart. They weren’t from the poorest families but they were far from rich.

One of the boys was fully Italian, the other had an Italian father, and an Irish mother. Growing up, they saw ‘wiseguys’ and made men and gangsters in the street. They saw the gangs, even had friends who joined them... their early childhood was Goodfellas.

One of the friends was the son of an actress-turned-seamstress. The other was the son of a painter who had left his wife because he was gay — his mother had been an artist.

Not surprisingly, both kids inherited the ‘artistic gene’ from their parents and, from their fathers’ humble immigrant origins, a strong drive to make it in the world.

The two boys grew into men and went their separate ways. They met again in their twenties. The half-Irish one, the tallest and most handsome of the two, had gone to acting school and was now an actor known as Robert De Niro.

His friend, a creative fellow but too short for leading man status, was Martin Scorsese. Scorsese wanted to recreate the world they had grown up in and make it come to life for a young audience largely unfamiliar with it. Mean Streets. Taxi Driver. Raging Bull. The King of Comedy. Goodfellas.

Scorsese directed movies. De Niro acted in them. As it turned out, Scorsese was a damned fine director, and script writer. De Niro was a damn fine actor. They would come to define cinema in many ways, and put their mark on the genre of mafia films and organised crime drama like no one else before them, and no one else after.

@Seekthetruth101 It was planned by Sinéad but nobody else knew. Listen to her interviews.

[Sinéad Rua [email protected] @sineadnics]

Every single defender of Rory Gallagher on here based on the fact he had custody of the kids needs to read this thread from a social worker.
Every single one.

@Buseireann So because return tickets aren't available to purchase onboard only one-way is available (scam) I've just paid €23 and I'll have to pay another €23 on return. Avoid Bus Eireann at all costs. Check private busses.

[LesleyAnn Patton @LesleyannPatton]

@Buseireann I tried to buy my return ticket online prior to my journey, the online service wouldn't let me, when I boarded the bus & asked for a return ticket, I'm informed you don't permit return tickets to be purchased on the bus. I had to pay €23 for a single. Joke!

[Senator Alex Antic @SenatorAntic]

The previous four Australian ABS Provisional Mortality Statistics data releases reveal 15.1%, 16.0%, 17.0%, and 17.3% increases in excess deaths above the baseline average.

Similar, if not worse, trends, are happening all over the western world.

Clearly, something serious, I would say catastrophic, is occurring, yet strangely politicians and the censorship industrial complex are almost entirely unconcerned about investigating it.

They don’t want you to know what is driving this, but we all know what is causing it.

Watch as I speak in the Australian Senate about the tragic western trend of excess deaths.

@AdrianBamforth @MrJonnieB His face *

[LesleyAnn Patton @LesleyannPatton]

@AdrianBamforth @MrJonnieB She said "to this face & in front of everyone" I guess we'll know when he is exposed, sooner or later. My money is on Walliams.

[LesleyAnn Patton @LesleyannPatton]

@AdrianBamforth @MrJonnieB She spoke about it with Louis Theroux on their docu. That's when she admitted to calling him a predator in front of everyone. Walliams has also "stepped away" from BGT for inappropriate behaviour.
