Theresa May to honour Irish republican Countess Markievicz

steddyeddy · 28-10-2017 11:44AM #1

Well she actually wants to honour the first woman elected to the house of commons, which happens to be Markievicz. Thatcher wpuld be spinning in her grave.

I wonder does she know who she's paying tribute too.

Who remembers this tool giving it large about the Countess and thought she was a bloke. The conviction in voice when making the statement makes it all the better. Embarrassing.

I bet May secretly wishes she had the small arms skills of the Countess.

How long till Mary is here posting her usual story?

Think it should be ignored. She didn't take her seat and was a traitor to the crown.

Thanks to people like her we're not in the sinking ship that is Brexit.

The unfortunate and tragic thing about the British is that they always realise when it's too late.

Boris Johnson would be a hard target to miss.

And then she'd have a clear shot at the little turd Gove who'd be hiding behind him.

Good traditional Irish Name too.

She was of the Calremorris clan of Markievicz's.

Irishness isn't confined to a religion or name.

Future SF TD right there. Far better looking than Mary Lou as well.

Read a story last year about her murdering a police man at point blank range in St Stephens Green .....

I don't have the details to hand, but she sounds like she was a very confused, crazed and violent woman.

elperello · 28-10-2017 01:53PM

Wait till the lads in the Met find out that the crowd they are protecting are honouring someone who was running around with a gang who used unarmed coppers for target practice.

footnote: she may even have bagged one herself but reports are contradictory.

Ya....ignore history which deosnt suit yous?seems a grownup way of approaching life's problems

I'm somewhat suprised the dup are agreeing to this though??
Maybe we've under estimated the DUP and they aren't the caractiture of bigoted morans they like to display themselves as??

Full credit to em,don't see the relevance of this to ireland other than being an interesting footnote though

It's not called murder when you're at war.

Most likely made up

Time for a general election.

The confidence and supply arrangements won't last long when the DUP get wind of this.

Six dead coppers shot dead while unarmed and laid out in the City Morgue might have disagreed with you.

As if you don't have every detail memorised, you live for this stuff.

There are several options for the type of post that could be

- Countess Markievizc kills police man (same post several times)
- British isles name
-Orange order parades are good.
-how dare you attack the orange order
-How dare you say that I like the orange order.

Lads, it’s getting very near poppy season. I’ve been running a book on which of you bhoys will be the first to start a thread. Especially now that corner boy McLean is in the headlines.

I'll give odds of 1/1 that you and lord Orange will be every second post in it.
