    Hang on, I just need to get my tin foil hat quick.

    PEople have political views (especially the ones who decide to post in the politics section) and will argue their points/ideology.

    Doesn't mean that there is a political mole at all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,477 ✭✭✭Hootanany


    Well there must be Union reps on here


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,775 ✭✭✭✭Princess Consuela Bananahammock


    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,092 ✭✭✭ParkRunner


    I would hazard a guess that the majority here are working in IT so it would be representative of the opinion from this sector more than there being a political mole.

    I would guess at least 2 paid up working members of political parties here.... I could be wrong ;)


    Edit political party,

    Considering what i've seen on other forums and in other parts of b.ie, i'd be surprised if there wasn't.


    Thing is, there'd be political moles alright, but they'd be from every side, so it all balances out! :D

    Moles?? It's not like it's a private forum.

    Representatives of all parties, vested interests and walks of life are welcome to post here - as long as they do so civilly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Lockstep


    I'm a paid up member of the Labour party. See no issues with posting here.

    Think I've mentioned that a few times on here.

    I prefer the term,"Political Leviathan".

    But yeah, of course there are people pushing an agenda, this is a discussion forum!:P Whether they do so for a mainline party or in the interests of reality is up to themselves.

    What do you base this claim on, the obvious and total good will and pro union attitude of the board?

    Oscarbravo is actually an elder of Zion and Scofflaw works directly under the Fuhrer, herr Barroso. Case closed.

    Of course there is vested interest. Otherwise if you had all you wanted you would not care to comment and if you had no fear of loosing it you would not defend it.

    Thats why its called politics.

    Oscar I think you're slightly wrong? Last time I heard scientologists/scientology wasn't tolerated on Boards (and rightly so).

    I'm sure lots of politically involved people read, or have read, these forums.

    Mahatma Coat is a mole. He is always pointing the finger at everyone else, and its always this kind of person who turns out to be the culprit.

    Eh? Eh?

    I'm a current member of Fianna Fáil, though paid up, as is kikoutthemjams describes his party membership status, would be stretching it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,477 ✭✭✭Hootanany


    How much to be a paid up member of a party is it paid in cash or postal orders:cool:

    Given the amount of attention this forum has been getting recently I would assume there are lots of vested interests in here.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 27,644 ✭✭✭✭nesf


    Meh, so long as someone doesn't just advertise their party on here they're more than welcome to post. Though admitting you're a Green party member on here may get you lynched..


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,609 ✭✭✭Flamed Diving

    See? This is exactly what a mole would say...

    Where, when ?
    The gob****e.
    I have a major bone to pick with that gob****e.
    Broadband availablity in this country is a joke and even within 15 miles of the city centre of Dublin FFS.

    Ok need to relax a little now :o

    Whatever happened to conor74 or is he in hiding since O'Donoghue got his ass canned ?
    Don't think I have agreed with you once, would also like to tax you and your brethern 80% but I believe you are still in college :mad:

    And your problem with this is ??
    BTW wasn't that guy amrhain nua always just advertising is new party ?


    Anyways I can't understand how no one sees the most blatant mole in our midst.
    It has to be Jimmy.

    He stirs up any public service sentiment so much that I bet it is a double cross. :D
    And how could he know so much about the wastage if he wasn't an insider ?

    I am not allowed discuss …

    Ah so forget about his bank bailout fiasco,forget about NAMA, forget about ff policies, who he has been prominent member of, that got us into this mess in the first place.
    Fecks sake you would want to have complete amnesia of all events for the last 30 odd years prior to yesterday to have a good opinion of ff and their hidden gombeenism agendas.
