Child Item

Gemma O'Doherty and her unicorns

Infernal Racket

I see that Gemma is now mentioning unicorns in almost everything she speaks about. She even thinks the Guards will be riding around on Globalist unicorns very soon and that Avoca woolen mills are trying to indoctrinate children into their new world order by putting colourful stripes on beige jumpers. Does she not have any family or friends at all that might seek the help she needs?

How do you know that none of the young ones working in Lidl or Tesco arent saying the Our Father over your mince or sausages.

Nonsense.

Speaking of...
Going to go back and address that bit where you claimed articles and people said stuff they didn't?
Bit dishonest to do that, then promptly ignore when people point out that you did that.

What's your point here?
Are you trying to say there was no campaign against Kelloggs paying for Halal certification in Australia? (even though the Muslim guy there said there was)

Or are you trying to say that public tastes and pressure have no effect on the commercial decisions of a company like Kelloggs?
Because that is simply nonsense. And I realise you have focused in on this one quote from a company spokesperson...

“This was a commercial decision, not the result of any public pressure or backlash.”

But that is marketing speak. They would say that, wouldn't they.
Come on now, I don't think you are so thick as to believe every single thing a marketing executive says.

A commercial decision in such a situation comes down to the basic equation; "if we do X, will it increase our sales, or will it decrease our sales".
Halal certification, or no Halal certification. That is the question. Maybe it seemed like a good idea at first.
Its a commercial decision for Brennans, just like it was for Kelloggs. The decision is based on the perceived market demand.

First things first,
You said that Kelloggs did not deny that public pressure played a role.
Could you please explain why you claimed this in spite of what the article said?
Did you not realise that the article said this?

Could you also now confirm that when Kellogg said:
“This was a commercial decision, not the result of any public pressure or backlash.”
They are in fact lying?

Could you also address why you claimed to be quoting "the muslim" guy when nothing like what you said he said appears in either of the articles you posted.

You are asking a lot of questions before addressing the points you have dodged.
It's very very dishonest of you, and makes you a bit of a hypocrite to be whinging about honesty.

You can call it lying.

I called it marketing speak.
I believe marketing executives like to call it "bluff and bluster" or use terms like "damage limitation measures".

Here's the post where I made that claim, and linked to the relevant article.
Anyone can read that post, check the link, and see whether I quoted from the link accurately.
It then becomes obvious which of us is being dishonest here.

Similarly I have stopped buying Brennans bread, but I will resume when/if they stop paying money to the Islamic Foundation of Ireland.

I just know they are not getting my money.

"bend over backwards" = Putting a small little symbol on a piece of food packaging to try increase sales.

The symbol is an indication that the method of butchering the animal was changed to suit Islamic culture and beliefs

No thanks. Manufacturers won't roll out placing the symbol on their products as they know sales will decrease.

Quite literally the exact opposite

Makeup, meds and sports wear: Why halal has become big business

Halal, a growing regulated market and a great business opportunity

Food and drink manufacturers ‘have no plans’ to ditch halal certification

Etc etc.

2.2 million Muslims in the world in 30 years. Anyone not concerned with Halal certification is a moron.

Are you concerned about Halal certification?

The link above it tells us how many Muslims there are and will be and halal is great business for them. That's obvious isn't it. Unless you are accepting that everywhere will eventually have huge Muslim populations which would make Halal the obvious choice.

Very small Muslim population in Ireland. At least you are finally accepting that this will eventually change and the percentage will rise drastically. In this case Halal certification makes sense

Surely if magic words worked, proof would be as simple as DNA testing the Eucharist wafer post communion?

Waffle about agnosticism when discussing the effect words may have on the imbibing of bread be it Catholic or Halal...
Is wanton nonsense.

Its also about the growing export market.

As a small open economy, we are very reliant on exports, and alternatives to the UK to diversify customer bases to prevent Brexit shock are actively being saught in many industries.

Because some people want to bend over backwards to accommodate them. Sad

The same reason we entertain catholics when the want to hold candle lit vigils in public places (outside the dail, GPO, etc). Should they be told to take their fairytales elsewhere as well?

Or should we let them because "some people want to bend over backwards to accommodate them"?

Massive percentage of the population are Catholic. At least on paper anyway. Especially the older generation

It's not like for like.

You don't have to attend if not Catholic. You have a choice
Having my food prepared according to Islamic beliefs is not a choice I would make.

Do I have a choice?

Exactly. That's all we ask. Transparency.

If manufacturers want to go this route then so be it. But if they hide it then something is very wrong .

Other people feel we shouldn't have a choice. Sad

Yeah huge amounts running for political office isn't there? Huge amount running large corporations.

Theres been a slight increase in Muslims running for political office based on the fact that they're hated so much and they want a voice.

Im no fan of religion but the anti Muslim thing is the easiest way to get thickos to follow you. Trump, Hopkins, Gemtrails etc. Line 1 in the playbook.

Its so easy to sell an ideology to morons and to profit from it.

Gemma is tears laughing at her followers as her bank balance increases. Must be saying "how are people so stupid, this is so easy".

She even provides you with the link so you don't have to type "youtube" yourself. The thickos need to be spoon fed.

Like, well, like sheep.

You are worried. You look at the policies of the president of the United States. Arguably the most powerful position on the planet. You are looking at the level of support of the Brexit party and their landslide European election victory. You see the like of Salvini in Italy. The Alternative for Germany party who despite only being formed 6 years ago are now the largest opposition party. Vox in Spain, Le Pen in France, the Sweden Democrats party, The Fins Party of Finland who only lost out by .2 % in the most recent national elections.

Other notable inclusions:

Immigration rules in Denmark are among Europe's toughest, reflecting the power of the right-wing Danish People's Party, which is the second largest party in parliament. Denmark allows its police to seize migrants' property to pay for their upkeep and has pledged to boost contraception aid to developing countries to "limit the migration pressure"

In the build-up to the 2017 election in the Netherlands , the anti-immigration Freedom Party of Geert Wilders had been tipped to win, but in the end came a distant second despite increasing their number of seats. Provincial elections in 2019, however, saw newcomer Forum for Democracy (FvD), led by Thierry Baudet, win the most seats - more than double the Freedom Party.

The Czech Republic's prime minister, Andrej Babis, says recent elections in Slovenia and Italy show the stance of the Czech Republic, Poland, Hungary and Slovakia on immigration is spreading

You are worried
