Peter Casey believes Travellers should not be recognised as an ethnic minority

Well If Renua cannot make huge gains in the next general election after all this then they should just fold immediately after.

The country has been crying out for a party who will actually tackle the sponger state we have become over the years that allows the increase of other uselessness and ferile humans.

Casey has shown (by accident I believe) is what a lot of working people actually really believe and surely Renue will take this mantle on from here in the next election?

If not then there is a huge opportunity for a new party to enter politics here and take maybe a 20% share of the votes to start with as im sure a lot of Middle income workers feel this way. I know I would vote for them.

What sickens me is the media now putting a different spin on all this, deflecting away again from the actual message of 'we are sick of the wasters getting everything for free at our expense' to one about racist beliefs ect when its not about that at all.

And if I hear FF and FG try and come in with some BS at the next election about how they would tackle this, they can get lost. Too little too late for me, they don't even have the balls to state openly now what im sure a lot in their parties actually believe. Now im sure they are going be worried about the vote that will be lost to a renue or whoever goes in for this vote.

Heres the guys story. To be fair the clubs officers are backing him, so it seems very unlikely he is making it up.

Never came across that sort of traveller before, one who doesn't react violently if you so much as look at them.

They would need to drop the pro life thing though,
20% of the nation is good for a new party (astounding), but 20% of 30% of the nation is not so good.

Yep the pro life thing is crazy and they really need to get rid of Lucinda Creighton. If they could get the right people into this party they would do well for themselves.

Creighton is long gone! I think most people dont even know they exist! Creighton ironically was head and shoulders above those other wasters that make up the DAIL! Hopefully she comes back in if Casey leads the party. Although I wonder whether him leading the party is a good idea...

They should also be for USC abolition... IF casey goes to Renua, their policies will be spotlighted, we are going to have an election fairly soon one way or another, if they are thinking of changing policies, now is the time do it!

"Michael, his brothers and his cousin were less likely to be awarded frees than other players, he believes, while he says racist comments directed at people on the basis of their skin colour wouldn’t be tolerated, but that anti-Traveller statements are tacitly accepted. “If a referee knew of a black person getting racist comments, there’d be a sending off. When it’s us they don’t want to believe it, they’re only telling us to forget about it, pretend you never heard about it. They’re not even saying about it in their reports. It makes you not want to play when you’re getting that abuse every week.”

A referee cannot act of he does not hear the 'racist' comments themselves

Player A comes to a ref and says Player B called me ___

Player B says I didn't

Why should the referee believe Player A automatically?

If a referee doesn't take action there is no point in putting in a report with a He said, She said scenario

I honestly don't know. The timing is handy if they are though.

How its the timing of abuse handy if it prevents you from playing a sport that you love ?

This is getting a bit silly now...

The timing of the story....


Yesterday i was harrassed about giving an article from the MayoNews on a positive opinion piece on Casey because rural papers from out west were not indicative of whats going on.

Today the Clare Champion is a source of media spin to show the struggle of travellers in a certain light because of recent events.

Was hillary behind this release ?

Yesterday you were asked to stop posting in a thread by the mods. If you're going to talk more gowl about Hillary I'd suggest you do the same thing today.

Yesterday the mods clarified that the thread was closed due to some posters not abiding by the charter.

But we are not here to question the moderators, we are here to discuss a subject matter.

We could return to normal service of you ganging up on posters but i guess we could just move on and discuss the subject at hand.


Or I dont know lets talk about my spelling and education, maybe were i grew up ?

A real adult discussion

Come off it, no one was ganging up on you. You were repeatedly posting nonsense and engaging with absolutely everyone who was calling you out on it.

I bet tonight the talk will be all about travellers and racism and not about the social welfare state we have become. Once you work you pay for everything sure there's €50 to go into the doctor for 5 minutes. Lounge about all day I can go in and out whenever I want. It's crazy there are still over 82,000 who are 'umemployed' for over a year. You shouldn't be able to live on benefits, it should reduce over time.

Can we get back on topic rather than going after individuals.

cheers
