Is it just me or have SF vanished?

I haven't seen or heard anything from Mary Lou, Slab Murphy and other good Republicans in ages.

The MEPs are most likely exempt because they are public representatives of this jurisidction.

Michelle is availing of a loophole that allows people from the North to travel to Dublin, in a way that people from Dundalk can't. There is a difference between exemption and loophole.

Lol, my backside, twisting and turning all morning long.

Here's the HSE sites take on it. https://www2.hse.ie/conditions/coronavirus/travel.html

Exceptions
The only people who do not need to self-isolate are people who are:
arriving in the State from Northern Ireland

aircraft crew, including pilots, in Ireland as part of their work duties

holders of a Certificate for International Transport Workers, or drivers of a heavy goods vehicle, who are in Ireland for this work

ship crew, including the maritime master, in the course of performing their duties

Just as well you have no input or influence into the HSEs travel advice blanch, lest you would have shoe horned in some kind of **

**Excludes Shinners, they must do what blanch would prefer them to do.

This isn't your day, is it?

Two different jurisdictions completely with two different sets of rules re: covid 19. thats not a loophole - its just another example of the stupidity of a border

Ah the misrepresentation rebuttal.

Did I compare posing for a selfie with reflex tickling of a child????
No I didn't, I compared it to the the reflex shaking of a Down Syndrome man's hand.

You also compared it to you tickling a toddler which is what I referred to as not the same (neither is the Down's Syndrome example)
Further you're incorrectly saying I lied about that
Quite spiteful
The post where you mentioned the tickling of the child is attached for reference
I'd like an apology for that please

Just looking at the roles in the new government. It is an absolute disgrace that the new Minister for Justice has never spent a day in prison and the new Minister for Finance has no experience in the planning or carrying out any bank roberries.

The poor family of Mr Storey, seen Politicians use his funeral to point score, people cropping pics to suit their agenda. A ****ing disgrace.

Anyone doing it, have a hard look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself how does your parents feel after raising you that you have turned out to be a total scumbag

Have to agree with you there, it was a complete ****ing disgrace that those Sinn Fein politicians turned up at his funeral to point score against the unionist community who lost loved ones to his terrorist actions.

You just can't help revaluing that word 'lie' can you Mort for political effect.

in this and its sister thread,colleagues of yours here have been throwing up dubious and debunked photos of Leo and others flouting social distancing and you have been among the jeer leaders

Anything I said about Leo an his beers in the park was along the lines of he really should have thought better of the signal he was sending. Exactly the same criticism I made here from my first post on the issue.

You cannot change your record...defended every non SF breach to the hilt.

I know, ye like to ignore zoom lens effects,I know ye like to ignore reality
There's no need to tell us that repeatedly because, unfortunately no matter how many times you ignore it,it doesn't change
The photo ye put up,doesn't actually show Flanagan inside someone's 2m distance

Why I'm saying if its him is because I'm surprised as ye are all the time going on about how Anglo he is and secondly because imho he shouldn't be there

I don't have a problem with SF T.D's being there and have said so except they really shouldn't have been in the church, at the expense of relatives,again imho,but Francie suggested if I'm reading this right thats what the excluded relatives wanted and I understand that

I do think the selfie was stupidity and bad optics/bad example giving from a legislator

I'm not whingeing about the thread, I'm describing the thread for what it is and I'm saying quite clearly that FFGers will attack SF now more than ever but it matters little and if anything it could galvanise SF support. SF have an opportunity to grow in opposition, depending on how they perform themselves really.

Yes Christy, that's what political parties do, who's whingeing now exactly?

Except you won't do that Christy, you can't stop yourself. Like some of the reps in the party you vote for who are calling for SF TD's who were at the funeral in Belfast to quarantine for 14 days while ignoring FFG politicians who were not social distancing either at Garda Horkan's funeral or who flew in from Brussells and went directly to the Dáil. Give it a rest Christy.

OK i thought you were complaining about the thread, if you're happy enough for it to continue then fair enough.

Yes thats what parties do, but a bit hypocritical for Pearse to be complaining when he's on the receiving end of his own type of nonsense.

I can't stop myself doing what exactly? As I said, I vote for FG as best of a bad lot. I dont agree with a lot of what they do, and they are more than capable of making themselves look stupid too.

Seems like a wet week ago when McDonald actually had covid, and at the height of restrictions, you were on here for weeks calling her a coward suffering from a head cold and why wasn't she out, front of house, and was instead "hiding away" pretending to be ill. etc etc.

Now when the restrictions have been lifted, McDonald has recovered from covid and has antibodies, she is "reckless", you've not a credible bone in your skeleton.

I can just picture you now, staring at your keyboard with the face, red as a beetroot, thinking of a comeback that isn't going to come

There is no evidence that she has immunity due to prior in infection.

:pac: This is going to be an interesting Dáil alright.

They've opened up the airports with people flying in and out and the conditions not set in place for such activity. There is a serious side to this issue and it really shows up the FFG lead government for what they are if they're going to play silly buggers with it by banging on about an SF funeral while there was similar non social distancing at other events that FFG politicians were at and FFG politicians step off planes and go directly into the Dail.

One wonders will FFG get anything done at all what with their obsession with SF and then Miriam O'Callaghan's disgruntled sibling and others sharpening knives behind Micheál's back.

Right, like I said, a thread for anything and everything if you want to have a pop at SF. No discussion of their tax policies, just that they're stupid. Great contribution there Christy.

FFG is more relevant than ever Christy a chara, given that they (FFFG) are now officially joined at the hip.

Well if they succeed in finally excluding the opposition they clearly fear, it might be the only way to keep the coalition democratic.

You have no idea of the circumstances, somebody else took a selfie, was she meant to be fighting the guy on the right...elbowing him in the face, pushing him away? You can take a photo on a phone in a second.
How do you know, in other words?

Here is another of the pathetic and manipulative uses of the photo's that you have just engaged in. This is what was used in the media;

Michelle O'Neill shock horror shaking hands.

See the pic it was cropped from

and it shows O'Neill responding to Storey's Down's Syndrome brother.

I myself had to be checked when I went to tickle the toddler child of a friend the other day. I just forget and responded the way I would for a lifetime.

Not something she should have done either, but I, would see it as a fairly understandable human mistake rather than a crime.

To represent it as she was going around shaking hands is as despicable as saying she was going around taking selfie's.
That is the level you are dropping to. The guy who got the tape measures out and the forensics to defend every instance elsewhere.

Sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander except here is a case where the SF vice president and ard Chomhairle member that directs sf policy island wide is literally caught red sauce handed

That’s it really. You can have Louise Reilly giving out to Stephen Donnelly about Covid when her leader thought it was perfectly ok to break rules to attend the funeral of a terrorist.

Optics don’t work there.
